Favorite Japanese games

Rez: Awesome abstract Panzer Dragoon style shooter.
Vib Ribbon: Quirky game based on audio CDs.  Very limited english release. 
Sin and Punishment: One of the best games for the N64, by Treasure.  Voice acting was entirely in English, it's a shame it never made it over.
Rakugaki Showtime: A chaotic mix of Super Dodgeball and Smash Bros with quirky "sketch" graphics, this multiplayer beatemup is the inspiration for Treasure's upcoming Tiny Toons game.
Radiant Silvergun: Some have called it the greatest shooter ever made.
Beatmania: Simplistic yet so awesome.  DDR for people who don't need to look gay.
Bust a Move: Called Bust a Groove in the US, I prefer the Japanese songs
Super Galdelic Hour: A fanservice "variety hour" show, consists of minigames to unlock different costumes for four different girls.  By Enix.
Bahamut Lagoon:  If you think FF6 had some of the best RPG graphics on the SNES, this game tops it.
Seiken Densetsu 3:  Awesome, challenging, and awesome.  Far superior to Secret of Mana.
Pachinko Sexy Reaction:  Self explanatory.
Parodious:  Four games.  All awesome.
Sakura Taisen: Why?  Why are you not here already?

This is unforgivable.  I hate this country.

>>11 is not the entire western videogame market.

I'd love to see a PS2 compilation of the Parodius series released in Europe, but that's just me and maybe a hundred other people who would actually give a damn - not nearly enough for Konami to go ahead with it.

You may not like it, but game publishers are businesses, and as such they tend to care more about making money than releasing stuff >>1-12 really want to play.
