Hey Atarifever,
I would have responded earlier, but I've been too busy playing "Risk" at Conquer Club! (conquerclub.com for those that don't know.)

GBA - Duke Nukem 3d
PSP - Mega Man Powered Up
Nintendo 64 - Mario 64 (my God what a game!)
PSX - Resident Evil 2

Playstation 2 - Twisted Metal Black
Gamecube - Star Wars Rogue Squadron
Xbox 360 - Kameo
Xbox - Jet Set Radio Future
Dreamcast - Sonic Adventure (Played a Japanese version of this game at gamestop in late 1998 and it was torture waiting until 9:9:99 for it to come out!)

PS2 - Metal Gear Solid, God of War, Jak and Daxter

Seventh Generation

I'd rather wait another year before listing a solid 8th generation system seller that wasn't sold this or the past year.

Re: Games that Sell a system?
Shouldn't a 'system seller' be a system exclusive?
