Okay, the first one is an action/platformer for the NES. All I rememberabout this game is that one of the weapons was a yo-yo and I'm pretty sure the main character was a young boy. There also might've been a part of the game where your in a cave.

I think the second game was on the N64. I remember that it was a 4-player game and it was a hack-and-slash action game. I think you could choose between using a sword or other weapons (there may have even been a wizard or something). And I sort of remember the characters having different colored clothing- purple, yellow, green, and possibly other colors. And I remember playing an arcade version of this game, or an arcade version of a similar game.

I know my descriptions were vague and unspecific, but this is all I remember. I'm sure there are more than 2 games that fit the descriptions, so can you just list any game that might be the ones I'm looking for. Thank you very much.

Not 100 bout the NES game but the n64 game im pretty sure is gauntlet dark legacy. Wizard needs food and all that.

In the spirit of this thread, I have had a game on my mind for awhile that I cannot identify.

I remember playing it at a friend's house on Genesis. It was a platformer and I think it had something to do with McDonald's. You would collect golden arches and you could play as a kid in a red shirt or a green (I think) shirt. It's been eluding me for about 10 years now and I never could remember the name.

Sorry I can't identify either of your games, OP.

Thanks tankass. I don't think it was Gauntlet Drak Legacy b/c I remember it being a cartridge game. It was probaly Gauntlet Legends, but thanks for pointing me in the right direction.:)

After watching some Youtube videos, I'm about 80% sure that it was either Goonies or Goonies II. Thanks, I didn't think anyboy would come up with anything for the first game with so few clues. :applause:

McKids, IIRC.
Thanks, but that's not it. I'm almost positive it was for Genesis.

Edit: I found it! Mick and Mack: Global Gladiators

And the winner of the golden yo-yo award is me! Goonies was a great game, I might have to track that down and play through it again.

Goonies was great, I was always confused though because it was actually Goonies II, I thought it was based on a sequel to the movie but I know they never made one, it was mind boggling for a 7 year old.

Gauntlet Legends was the N64's crappy port of Gauntlet Dark Legacy from the arcade, I believe. My friends and I played the hell out of that in college. Then I finally got a PS2 and played the real Dark Legacy, which was a million times better. Both are fun though.

Goonies 2 was also an excellent game. I was going to guess StarTropics until I read the replies. Oh, well. (StarTropics is probably the better game out of the two but they're both fun.)
