Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

Skies of Arcadia. I was a big Final Fantasy fan growing up, especially the original PS era. After looking for similar games, I came across Skies of Arcadia. I never see people discuss this game outside of niche JRPG discussions. This is one of my favorite games of all time, I put it up there with Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, etc. The biggest flaw with the game is the excessive random encounters, which they toned down in the Legends edition for Gamecube.

Not only that but it has a great soundtrack.
