....... not gonna continue the game by posting more? Fine, I'll do it.
Note though, lately I've been having storms in my area that keep me offline for random periods of time so don't be surprised if I don't confirm an answer for a few days.
Anyway:
#16 - Can anyone tell me why these weapons keep disappearing after I kill the guys I cribbed them from to begin with? This whip would really be useful against that purple haired guy I'll meet after climbing all these ladders. By the way, WHOEVER PUT THAT WALL WITH THE RANDOM BRICKS SHOOTING OUT AT YOU SHOULD DIE.
#17 - While some levels require us to shoot up up or down down, we mostly shoot left right left right hoping to at least Be A Start of an offensive against this alien menace.
#18 - Part of my game's title contains what sounds like just bragging but is something I literally do. I'm so cool!
#19 - You can't turn this set of three sideways, you can only change their order in hopes of making a matching set with others that came before.
#20 - Fun fact about this game: Most people don't know that it was actually a sequel to an arcade game, and that one of the playable characters was actually the main villain of said arcade game. The other playable character was the star of the original arcade and is one of the unsung female protagonists of gaming.
#16 Double Dragon
#17 Contra
#19 Columns
#20 Pocky & Rocky?

#18. Cool Spot? I don't know if it's correct, Cool Spot is the characters name. The only thing I can actually think of though.
These questions sound a lot like crossword puzzles, I may know the answer, but some of them are too cryptic to be able to know what the person is thinking of./
#18 Cool Boarders maybe? Radical Bikers?
#18 - Awesome Possum?
Yup, all of those are correct!
Exactly! The full name is Awesome Possum Kicks Dr Machino's Butt... and according to video's I've seen, each level ends with an animation where he literally kicks Dr. Machino's butt and sends him flying cartoonishly.
@kupomogli -- I can't make these too easy. Well, okay, maybe they could stand to be slightly easier.
My brain is fried right now due to IRL stuff, so....
Celerystalker, you can come up with questions 21, 22 and 23, Goldenband, you can have 24, 25, and 26. (You don't have to wait for celery to post his before posting yours, unless you want to).
#21: People would call me a good Zelda clone if I wasn't so fruity.
#22: This NES game claims to be the greatest game on earth. Says so right on the cover.
#23: Time to take down a dicktator and free up some oil.
Is #23 Operation Secret Storm?
⃟Mario says "... if you do drugs, you go to hell before you die."
Is #21 StarTropics? and #22 Circus Caper?

#21 Spiritual Warfare???

21 was Spiritual Warfare, 22 was in fact Circus Caper
I was thinking Circus Caper but it wasn't on the cover of the box (I didn't think to look at the game label) so then I wasted time looking at box scans for Hockey and other sports games.

Just to give Goldenband more time, here's BONUS ROUND!
#BR1 - You got that scar from an epic battle? Hope you learned to stop picking your nose. Oh, and despite the title, you actually never learn any secrets.
#24. I'm getting hot flashes -- or at least, I'm turning red -- and having trouble with my balls. Time for a drink. (Hey, Tommy, you're still in the news!)
#25. Apple, you've got it (and I'm not talking about the iPhone). But wait, you want me to do this 22 times from scratch? Oh dear! At least I can bring a friend, or even just back out completely.
#26. 300 hours is a long time and I may not live up to your expectations. I'm already seeing red, so please, tell me your name soon or I'll go crazy!
I'm noticing the color red seems to be a theme with your hints. Having trouble placing those games myself... and it looks like many people are stumped lately too.
Now for my Bonus Round I'm kinda surprised... I mean its a game one of our members even had an avatar from. But here's a HINT FOR THE BONUS ROUND:
"I'm Bobbin. Are you my mother?"
I dunno, BR1 is probably Secret of Monkey Island. I'm utterly lost on the "main 3" though.
