I was thinking of Earthworm Jim on Genesis today. The cartoon art style was so uniquely endearing that it's one of the rare things where my Dad, who had zero interest in video games, sat down and watched me play as a kid, laughing uproariously at the sounds Jim made, and the way he moved. The way he used his own head as a whip, and just in general, his idle animation really got to him.
I didn't realize it at the time, but looking back, it really highlighted how unique the animations were.

It's also too bad that game was bullshit hard, because I never quite managed to convince him to have a go
