Battle Cross, one of my favorite hidden gems of the Super Nintendo.  This Japan only release combines two of my preferred gametypes into one svelte package: Arcade Racers and Party Games.  Imagine if RC Proam and Bomberman loved each other very much and had a child that had a steep learning curve, and you have Battle Cross.  The basis of it is that you are racing four other people on jet bikes and shooting each other with laserbeam looking bullets.  Battle Cross is also one of the few SFC/SNES games that is five player. 

Now there are some downsides:
- Hard to find/can be expensive  ie there are none on ebay right now
- Learning curve is higher than other games (steering is alittle funky)
- Can be addictive

If nothing else, do yourself a favor and give the rom a go.
