NES has Lemmings also but without a mouse that game is impossible.

Awesome dice rolling fest. Walk atop the dice, spin them so that the faces of 3 or more adjacent dice match and WHAM! Score, the dice fade into the floor. Features multi-player play and puzzle mode. Head to head rules! Outmatch your opponent... or sneak in at the last second and just steal all their hard work. ;) It's a little tough to describe without seeing the game in action.

Incidentally, the long awaited sequel, BOMBASTIC is out now on the PS2.

Devil Dice:
Roll the dice so that the same number of dice touch, based on the number on the top of the dice: i.e. 2 2's, 6 6's, etc.
Bombastic for the PS2 includes the original as an unlockable, which is mucho easy to unlock.
If you couldn't tell from my above post, I love this game. Highest recommendation I can give for a puzzler. Once you get going with it, it's tough to stop. :D
Bombastic (XI go in japan) is on my must have list. Here are some movies from the game.

Boss battle (5.6 meg) (http://www.intensegames.com/videos/Xi_Go_-_01_-_Boss_Battle.avi)
Check out these really, really skilled players:
Limited mode: 167 combo (8,4 meg) (http://oubaku.hp.infoseek.co.jp/Azrael163.mpg)
Limited mode: 142 combo (8.5 meg) (http://oubaku.hp.infoseek.co.jp/xi-go144.mpg)
Jumbo mode: 100 combo (9 meg) (http://obac.cool.ne.jp/xi/movie/jumbo100.mpg)

Hands down, no questions asked, must own psx puzzle games:
Super Puzzle Fighter 2
Intelligent Qube
Devil Dice
Other great ones include:
Mr. Driller
Misadventures of Tron Bonne (note this game is actually a few games mixed together (lots of minigames, shooter, adventure, but the puzzle section really kicks ass).
Bust a Move series

For the NES, Fire and Ice is a very good game. Lots of fun. I second Tengen Tetris as well, my fave of all the Tetris games. Bomberman on the NES is another great game.

I've heard great things about No One Can Stop Mr. Domino.
The Lost Vikings (or at least its sequel, Norse by Norsewest) was also released on the PS1.

Mahalo Nui Loa.
You guyz have given me some great leads....I have a feeling Devil Dice will steal my Soul in the near future.
I am a big fan of Bust a Move in the Arcade and I plan on getting it for the PSone.
I know there are several versions wich one do you guys recommend?

I liked 99 the best.
Intelligent Qube was made by the same people as Devil Dice, and is every bit as exciting and challenging. It will own you too.

Sisko- Le'me get this straight:
Are you recommending "Bust-a-Move '99"?

IMO, Bust-a-Move 4 is MUCH better than 99 - 4 is easily the best of the bunch on PS1.

I'd recommend Puchi Carat too - excellent with the bundled controller.
