Blast Corp is a great pick.
I think I have to go with The Last Remnant. On 360, it was terrible (performance issues, that made it hard to really enjoy the game). But, I've only played it on PC, and just recently. It immediately became one of my favorite games of all time. I have an actual living list, and I put it at 12th (slightly higher than Chrono Trigger).
Edit: Does this not meet the requirements, because it was ported to PC?

Wow, this is quite difficult (omg, Battle of Olympus had a GB version ?!)- esp. with the DD clause- and they have to be good/best too...
PC
Albion - PC-RPG, that still isn't on gog but supposedly is really gud ;_;
(Planet's Edge 'though it's also on FM Town the japanese PC, dunno if that dis-counts... ?)
NES:
Kickle Cubicle - the best iceblock pushing puzzlegame
Kabuki Quantum Fighter - the best hairy weapon game (I know of) I could never beat
snes:
Brainlord - if Lufia were an Single-Party with Faery Action-RPG
Young Merlin - Walk 'n Click game with absolutely no text and adorable little enemycritters
King Arthurs World - best Ride of the Valkyrie... I mean... the game is fun
Mega Drive:
Warriors of the Eternal Sun - clumsy, difficult (insanly around the end) but interesting RPG that never got it's announced sequel
and since there cannot be a best RPG it deserves a mention
*staring at own gamelist* obscure japanese games
saturn: Wachenröder (nice Tactics-Variant with overheating weapons)
no idea about the quality, since I haven't played them very much:
Neo Metal Fantasy (PCE), Dragon Knight Glorious, Oni Zero, Mystic Dragoon (PS1), Terra Phantastica (Saturn)

Journey for me. I bought and finished it when it came out, have never replayed it or touched it since, but still extremely satisfied with the money spent and the experience had.
One and done.
Actually I forgot about Eternal Darkness! Sorry, I change my answer to this. Even though I have replayed it a couple of times, it fits well with the OP's criteria. So Eternal Darkness for me.
Warriors is also a good choice from an earlier poster.

Downhill Domination for the PS2. Was never ported or went to PSN as far as I'm aware.

Caught Ring of Red already, but nice catch on War of the Monsters. Removed it from the list.

Blue Dragon spawned a franchise including two DS sequels, a manga adaptation, and an anime spinoff.

OP, you have Illusion of Gaia and Terrenigma listed, but both of those are part of the same series, which started with Soul Blazer.

Dog's Life (PS2) fits the criteria, I think.

Its funny how much bigger this list would have been ten years ago. The digital distribution gods have blessed us.

Doesn't Madworld continue with Anarchy Reigns? Most of the latter's cast is from the former. Including main characters.
The first game published by Ubisoft was called Zombi. I don't think they ever brought it up with Zombi U. It had 4 characters and when one died they would become a zombie you could fight. Just like in Zombi U.
How could I forget. These was such an amazing game. Every dome had its own art movement and TV stations.
And on PSP.

whoops. Nice catch; removed it from the list.
I believe the devs said that the similarity to Zombi was a coincidence.

So many seem to be launch window titles sent to death by poor install base.

That game was so weird! As a kid, I thought it was related to 5th Element or Armageddon or something.

Ristar has a GameGear port and has been released on multiple compilations. ESWAT, Pulsman and Alien Soldier were also released on VC and in other collections.
No. OP is only looking for games that have been released on one platform and nothing else.

As for the best one and done game, the best I ever played was
EDIT: Guess I didn't read the OP fully. I'll add Soul Bubbles (Nintendo DS), Omega Five (XBLA), and Shadow Complex (XBLA).

Took me a while, but I finally thought of it.

I'd love for this guy to make a return, such a cool looking game even though I never played it, but I don't even think Nintendo owns him and the company that made it went under, I think. Doesn't appear on the Chronicle in Smash Brothers Brawl, I don't think the official Nintendo site acknowledges it, etc. Hell, I bet the character is floating around unused and purchasable...
There's a Jumping Flash 2!

If Expansion packs don't count, then Impossible Creatures.
Also, Ghost Master.

Only counts in the U.S., where it was never re-released. Japan got it ('Knight and Baby', as it's called) on the PSN, but "Guardian's Crusade" technically was never re-released!
