So we have threads like that every few weeks, but they always get lost on the boards, so I decided to make this one a sticky.
My own request is about a game my girl played in her childhood with her mother. It was from a dozens-in-one cartridge, so it should be either Famicom or Master System, less probable Mega Drive.
From her description, I'm guessing it was an overhead run&gun, likely with shirtless guys as player characters. I was immediately thinking Ikari Warriors, but she insists that the players could kill each other, was that possible in Ikari Warriors?

I don't know if the players can kill each other in Ikari Warriors, since I've only ever played it one-player. Perhaps it's the Rambo: First Blood Part II game for Master System?

Oh boy! The thread I just needed!
Here is my request: It's about a Gameboy simple puzzle game with a cute blob as a main character (one of the first games for this console) which I played in a 32-in-1 cartidge (with games like Super Mario Land, Alleyway and Catrap).

Possibly Kwirk?

Kwirk / Puzzle Boy (J) Amazing Tater / Puzzle Boy II (J)
Could be either one.

Nope, it's not Puzzle Boy. The game I'm requesting is not a maze/puzzle but a tetris-like puzzle with cubes or bubbles or something like that.

Kwirk / Puzzle Boy (J) Amazing Tater / Puzzle Boy II (J) Could be either one. Kwirk and Amazing Tater were from the same series? Goddamn.

Developed by Atlus, no less, hence Puzzle Boy appearing in Nocturne.

Linked for bignessAnd Puzzle Boy doesn't explicitly appear in Nocturne but in order to obtain one of the Magatama you play a series of block puzzles that are in the same style as Puzzle Boy. It's also the name of the track that plays during the stages.

Hot damn. They truly were the masters of the game. My memory is kind of fuzzy about the magatama, though. I remember getting them all, but don't recall any block puzzles. I just know that the final one you get makes you so strong, it's almost laughable.

A few extra clues that maybe help for my request: the blob was at the right place of the screen and was throwing cubes/bubbles/whatever at the left place of the screen. And that blob looked like this blob from A Boy and His Blob.

And that blob looked like this blob from A Boy and His Blob. The Gameboy version of the game was known as Flipull. Supposedly it is also known as "Plotting." I still have that game and play it from time to time as it was a pretty fun puzzle game.

All right, here's a murky one so don't spend too much time on it. My friend was in Gamestop recently and one of the kiosks was looping game footage. He said he saw what looked like an SRPG which had arrows possibly showing character paths (like in Fire Emblem) with a grid on the field that had a stone tileset. He couldn't remember if it was 2D or 3D (but it had possibly "PS3-quality graphics"), and he said the perspective might not be isometric since he said the character was moving left to right. It's most likely a very recent game or a game coming out in a near future. It's not the new Tactics Ogre for PSP, not Disgaea 4, and not quite Might and Magic Heroes VI (although he said it was close).
I really have no clue what it could be. I'd say don't wrack your brains too much unless you happen to know what game it could be from seeing the game footage play at Gamestop.
