I bet this was probably a topic here sometime before. But I was just thinking, what are some of the best NES games you've played that are not very well known?
A few I thought of
Jackal
Battletoads & Double Dragon
Bucky O' Hare
Little Nemo

I have always loved Clash At DemonHead, and Demon Sword
although i think some of the mini games are a pain in the ass.. I do still find "Caveman Games" a good time!
I loved playing T and C Surf Designs: Thrilla's Surfari back in the day. Not sure how obscure it is, but Wizards and Warriors was awesome too!
All great suggestions so far! Battletoads & Double Dragon wasn't obscure tho. I'd like to add King's Knight (although opinions on this will vary!), Abadox (likewise), Clash at Demonhead, and Magic of Scheherazade.
I don't know how obscure these NES games are, but I recommend:
Gun Nac
Legendary Wings
Legends of the Diamond
Tecmo World Wrestling
Trog! is a fun one that a lot of people probably haven't played.
Metal Storm
T & C Surf Design (the original)
Bionic Commando- it may not be "obscure," but it doesn't get near the praise that it deserves)
Clash at Demonhead - let me add my endorsement along with the others. This game rocks.
Phantom Fighter- it's an acquired taste with unique play control, but I like it.
Bump n' Jump- like Bionic Commando, it may not be quite obscure but it is certainly undersung.
Edit:
Oh yeah! I also agree that Kickle Cubicle and Kabuki Quantum Fighter are great games- especially Kickle Cubicle!
Legend of the Ghost Lion - Probably the second best RPG on the NES, and certainly the most unique.
Might and Magic - This being the first best.
Taboo the Sixth Sense - I don't care what Seanbaby says, I've found this thing's predictions to be pretty accurate again and again. It's also a hell of a lot more accessible than similar programs on the PC.
Pinball Quest - Pinball: the RPG. Yes it exists.
I wish my library of games was here with me right now, because it would be so much easier to add to this list if I could see them.
New Ghostbusters II It's by hal and it's sure is better then that crap fest by activsion.
Isolated Warrior (shooter)
Dig Dug II (this sequel has received bad reviews)
M.U.L.E. (economics sim)
Golf Power (golf sim with battery save)
Pirates! (from Sid Meier, before he made Civilization)
