While Saturn fans awaited Sonic’s debut, they were introduced to a new character that blended both 2D and 3D gameplay for a new type of platforming experience. It doesn’t always work, but Bug! has enough charm and depth to offer a fun time for those looking for another platformer for their Saturn.
Taz appeared on just about every Sega console during the early ’90s. Some were better than others, but the often-overlooked Master System version remains one deserving of some attention. It’s not the best of the brand, but what’s there is enough to keep you interested all the way through.

Castle of Illusion and QuackShot are revered by Genesis owners as two of the best platformers of the 16-bit era. European gamers were lucky to get a collection of both these great games, and it might be an option for those looking to skip high prices.
