      rorz999 Often I’ve found rare games for consoles came out toward the end of the consoles’ life cycle so the games take full advantage of the consoles’ abilities (making them good) but also because they came out so late they didn’t sell well because everyone was on the next console (making them rare).
      I don’t know if it’s true Little Samson’s poor sales were because potential buyers assumed it was one of those bad Christian propaganda games from Wisdom Tree but it did come out in the US in 1992, a year after the SNES came out.

      There are now and has been for a very long time those bins in computer and office supply stores filled with majong, poker, solitaire, tax return software, compilation discs of ancient games, poorly developed junk., etc...it started with the early/mid PC craze is my guess.

    So I am not sure if anyone can help me, but there was this gameboy game I used to play. You play as two characters in the beginning, a girl with white hair who is pretty tall, and her younger brother who is a red head. They are very small, they can actually use bugs to fly and stuff. Its a side scroller. Its a puzzle game. There is one stage where you get to play as a third character, a princess in a stage called the wilderness. There is another stage ( one I have never passed ) where you get chased by a beetle. If this sounds familiar or if you think you can find it, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm still trying to find it over here.
