Fire Emblem, 1080 Snowboarding, WaveRace, Ice Climbers, Punch Out, F-Zero, Pilot WIngs, Star Fox and Captain Rainbow. It's wierd, because I am not a Nintendo fanboy; I just happen to like their game designs. Anyway, any franchises that are "lesser known" that you like or could recommend?

Those games are well known, you just don't hear people talking about them because they haven't come out with a game in a while.

Fire Emblem is not really well known... And these games aren't like Zelda, Mario, Metroid etc...

Ys, maybe I'm wrong but I don't see a lot of people talking about them(at least on the west or just this forum), Lunar series too. Oh and those series you just listed are well known...

Fire emblem is apparently quite popular in Japan, its just that for a long running franchise, it didnt hit the west until Path Of Radiance. The Gothic series, X3, Divinity, Penumbra, Shadow Hearts, Klonoa and Grandia come to mind, I find Overlord as appealing as the popular Fable franchise. Im not sure about the popularity of Katamari... but that too.
