Answer 4

Mischief Makers is a little-known but absolutely AMAZING game for the Nintendo 64. I love everything about that game, and it puts a smile on my face each time I play it.

This game might not be old enough for me to call it a one hit wonder, but I think Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem for the Gamecube is overdue for a sequel.

Vectorman; on the Sega Genesis; I've not heard of a sequel for that game.

Also, Killer Instinct for the Super Nintendo.

Answer 8

Great question you have there

Oh man, this is a hard one, almost all of the great games I've played have sequels, and even if I had played a one hit game, then I probably don't remember it.

I cannot remember any at the moment, I'll wait for a few more answers to see if it can stir my memory

I have heard of most of these games that people are listing, but I've never played them

The "closest" to a one hit video game I've played is probably Shadow of the Colossus, I say "closest" because there is a spiritual sequel to it called Ico ( released before SOTC). But other than that, all the games I've played and loved have sequels

Answer 9

I personally loved Brave Fencer Musashi for the PS1.  

It doesn't quite count as a 1 hit wonder, though.  There was a sequel. (Musashi: Samurai Legend) It took them 7 years to make a sequel, but it was horrible in comparison.  No, dont get me wrong, the graphics and battle system were excellent, but they stole musashi's attitude and fun story.  To put it simply, the sequel just lacked the complete awesome that was the original Braven Fencer Musashiden.

Answer 10

Alex Kidd in Miracle World.

This game was on the Sega and you didn't need a cartridge to play it. After this game no other Alex Kidd games were popular.

It's not on the VC list so I am definitely going to get it as it was the first video game I had ever played.

Answer 11

Blood Rayne
