Alright, lets get another visual hint 

And a verbal clue or two: Sumez's guess of Soul Blazer is about 20 years off (this is the newest game so far) and I'm fairly certain if you've never played it, you've probably(?) heard of it.

Next up:

Urban Champion

04 - Nigito from The Wing of Madoola [Nintendo Famicom - 1986]

@AverageOliver98 I've never even heard of this game, but I love the sprites you pulled from it! This one reminded me of some kind of Power Ranger knight.

Awesome work! Before last week, I wasn't aware of The Wings of Madoola either, just saw the Spriters Resource page and thought 'This could be interesting'. (the same thinking behind last year's 'Incredible Wizard')

I've been seeing tier lists of peoples favorite video games making rounds recently. This is the site they were using:  https://topsters.org/. Its a nice tool, pretty easy to use. You can also make lists for TV shows, movies, music, and books. And while I couldn't narrow down a list of my favorite games (and didn't think too hard on the other options), I could do it for my favorite game OSTs (some stuff was still cut).

This reminds me of Minecraft, but I know it isn't...

Ghoul Panic?

Pick one... or none - the choice is yours and yours alone

1, 2 and 3 - Enemies and/or Bosses(?) from 'The Wing of Madoola' - 2nd one reminds me of Dig Dug
4 - Enemy from 'Hebereke'/'U-Fouria: The Saga'

Michael Jackson's Moonwalker?

Baldur's Gate?

I've only heard of it, never played it... someone else needs to figure it out though. (hint: the clues) 

Amphibia has some Sega stuff in the background

Dreamcast and games in the season 1 episode 'Best Fronds'

Saturn 3D Controller and Nights Intro Dreams during the first half of Season 3 (multiple episodes)

Theres probably more stuff, but these were the ones I spotted and know what they are.

Kirby's Dreamland 3

Ding ding!

Freezing Metroids later in the game nabs Kirby a meeting with bounty hunter Samus Aran and a Heart Star. Some other Nintendo characters also appear too (most being pretty obscure).

No correct guesses still. I think somebody should be able to get it with this though.

Since no one stepped up (and I had time to think), try this

So if someone who hasn't gotten a chance to try and stump the rest of us really wants a turn, I'll forfeit for my spot for the next... 14 hours (12:00 PM CDT on September 7). If nobody takes it, I'll go again.

No correct answers so far! Here's a bigger picture:

I figured out the answer by reverse searching the image... though I don't know if anyone else here knew this existed (except for bronzeshield).

Lightening Force [Sega Genesis - 1993]

Would now be a bad time to mention that setting Lives to 0 gives you 99 of them (on the original NA/PAL releases, not JPN or Sega Ages versions)?

Also, I love that wicked Gargoyle Diver!

Thunder Force VI

A winner is you!

Nothing else in the series even comes close to how creepy this thing is (the final boss btw).

So I know the rules said 48 hours... but at this point, it's only been 46 hours and I kinda want someone to get this so one more image and hint (we're loosing the eyes for now, but its still part of the same picture)

Hint: So contrary to the eyeball thingy making it seem horror-esque , this is a shmup.
A shmup that was never released outside of Japan, but earlier entries in this series were.

No one has gotten it yet so time for a larger crop

... plus a hint: This game never released outside of Japan, but earlier entries in the series have.

It's a great game. I'm ashamed for not getting it with just that top half. Next round:

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (2019)
