Ehhh.. and I think thats about it.

EDIT: Wait a minute. It's either "Master Blaster" or "Blaster Master". The guy's frog falls down a hole, and grows super large when it comes in contact with some radiation box. He goes in after it and then finds a tank. I never beat the game. Spent 4 hours getting to the last stage, only to lose all my lives and continues in 4 minutes.

Guardian Legend

That game SO needed a sequel.

Master Blaster

Blaster Master dammit! BLASTER MASTER.

Yes, Blaster Master 2 for Genesis, Blaster Master Boy for GameBoy, Blaster Master Below for Game Boy Color, and Blaster Master: Blasting Again for PlayStation.


Also, R.C. Pro-Am had a sequel (R.C. Pro-Am 2) and so did Top Gear (Top Gear 2, which, BTW, was the best racing game on SNES).

 

[Bob White]

Destrega needs to be brought back next gen.

 

[FitzOfRage]

Just looking quick, I know there were Blaster Master and R.C. Pro Am sequels.

In addition to R.C. Pro Am 2 for the NES that DJ mentioned, there was also Super R.C. Pro Am (for the GB, not the SNES) and Championship Pro-Am for the Genesis, which was a port of the original with a couple updates (I think they may have still had you spell out "Nintendo" on the track for that one too, even though Nintendo didn't publish it of course).

 

[MoxManiac]

Blaster Master, Blaster Master 2, Blaster Master Boy, and Blaster Master Blasting Again...did I miss any?

EDIT: Wow, I should have totally read DJ Demon's post.

A playstation Blaster Master?! Was it any good? If it is, I'll have to look for it, although you would probably only find it on ebay.

Master Blaster - i assume you mean "blaster master," and yeah, there were two sequels: blaster master 2 on genesis, and blaster master: blasting again on psx. neither is much good.

Marble Madness - there was a sequel in development called "marble man," but it was never actually released. famously some dude has put together two cabinets. he's got a website somewhere.

Lifeforce - yep, salamander II. and it's brilliant. ported to saturn and psx in the salamander deluxe pack.

Hylide - super hydlide on genesis, virtual hydlide on saturn. haven't played either one, but they both look awful. remember the original hydlide being pretty awful as well, actually.

Tetris =) - lots of awful ones. plus tetris attack. which is great. but isn't tetris.

Top Gear - top gear 2 and top gear 3000 (or something) on snes, plus i think some n64 games that share the name but little else.

Space Megaforce - called "super aleste" in japan, it's part of a loose, long-running series of games called zanac/aleste. it has many predecessors, but the closest thing to a sequel is zanac neo on playstation, which comes bundled with the old zanac in a package called "zanac x zanac." it's fantastic and in much the same style as space megaforce. i think it's sort of rare and expensive now, but it's well worth it.

I'll hit a few which might have already been covered in the time it took me to write this up.

KungFu

In a weird sort of way, you could call Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu a sequel, since the original was based on Chan's Spartan X movie. But mostly no.

Marble Madness

In prototype only, see http://www.safestuff.com/marbleman.htm

Tetris

About a kazillion -- Tetris 2, Bombliss, Tetris Plus, etc. etc. etc.

Top Gear

Top Gear's a long running multi-console series. Search "top gear" on gamefaqs.

 

[M3wThr33]

They made 2 on the NES and 2 on the GB, I'm pretty sure.

And why is Tetris still listed there?

Very, very good, and should be about $4.99-$9.99 at every Toys'r'Us or Borders Bookstore bargain PSX/PS2 display.

 

[DDayton]

I'm fairly sure there was a sequel to Zombies Ate My Neighbors... Genesis only?

 

[Diomedeskun]

Ghoul Patrol is the Zombies sequel. On SNES too. I would love a sequel to The Guardian Legend.

 

[Date of Lies]

Skies of Arcadia, no sh*t.

Isn't Vigilante a sequel to Kung Fu? Spiritually, at least.

Brandish - Yes, there's Brandish 2, 2 Expert, VT, 3, and 4. Most of those came out on Japanese PCs, but 2 and 2 Expert were also on SFC.

Kung Fu did get a sequel.

What I want to know is if/why Jackie Chan for NES didn't get a sequel, I loved that game to death.

 

[Sho Nuff]

Out of this World 2 came out.

It was BAD.

 

[Fularu]

There was a Spartan X on the Game Boy as well.
Not really in the same vein as the original one, since the guy could do bicycle kicks and stuff.

 

[jetjevons]

ZAMN had kind of a pseudo-sequel called Ghoul Patrol if I remember correctly.
