Yuu Yuu Hakusho - Tokubetsu Hen is one of those SNES gems that flew under the radar outside Japan. It's a side-scrolling brawler based on the anime, but with a twist—you can switch between Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Kurama on the fly, each with their own moves and spirit energy attacks. The pixel art nails the show's style, especially when Hiei goes full dragon flame or Kurama whips out his rose whip.

First few minutes? You're smacking demons in the face with Yusuke's signature Spirit Gun, then swapping to Kuwabara for his clunky-but-satisfying sword swings. The controls take a second to click, but once you get the hang of chaining specials, it feels surprisingly fluid for a '94 beat 'em up. Just don't expect deep combo systems—this is pure nostalgic chaos with a killer soundtrack.

Fun fact: The "Tokubetsu Hen" subtitle means it's based on a movie special, so even hardcore fans might spot some obscure references. It’s rough around the edges, but that’s part of the charm.
