Golden Sun was a good game for a Game-boy release. If I played it on a console, like PS1, then the story would definitely need be a little more complicated. Additionally, Golden Sun was highly appreciated and anticipated. A wide majority of people know about the game which makes it a popular game and therefore doesn't make the game "under-appreciated" which this thread is intended for.
Skies of Arcadia felt very "block-ish" for me. The camera angles sometimes gave me a headache and made it difficult for me to find all the treasure chests before I could progress. My younger sister is really into it though after I bought it like a year and a half ago.
I think Xenogears could be considered pseudo-mainstream since a lot of players who bought Xenosaga played or went to play Xenogears afterwards. I think Vagrant Story was definitely a sleeper RPG.
I kind of liked "Parasite Eve" and "Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon 64." Parasite Eve was just really freaking scary when I played it. And Goemon felt like I was fully immersed within the game. The game really got amazing at the end with all the various ways to explore the same areas and it was one of those rare games I ended up playing twice.
