I've only recently gotten into the world of obscure indie games and fan games and I've run into a few with super high quality that im glad to have on my Launchbox build to show friends. I was hoping you guys could help me find some more. Currently, im quite fond of:
Psycho waluigi



AM2R 



Barkley Shut up and Jam Gaiden



Ghosts'n Demons



Toadette Strikes Back, 



and Pokemon Type Wild 


Ragnarok Battle Offline

Mega Man: Day in the Limelight Trilogy


Super Smash Bros. Crusade




Cant wait to pick your brains for more unique stuff to play!

Streets of Rage Remake is, to me at least, the gold standard of fangames, and well worth checking out:

Cannonball is not "technically" a fangame, but it's a reverse-engineered, ported, and vastly upgraded version of OutRun:

Super Mario Bros. X was basically Mario Maker before Mario Maker was a thing:

Power Bomberman is...ridiculous. It's up to 12 player Bomberman, and just an absurd amount of content:

 

DoomRL takes the crazy idea of mixing DOOM with a RogueLike to it's beautiful conclusion:

Mega Man 8-bit Deathmatch is...exactly what it sounds like. Take a look:

If you're looking for a more traditional Mega Man game, I've got you covered with Mega Man Unlimited:

What's that? You like a different blue action hero? Alright, well here's Sonic After the Sequel to blow your mind: (Sonic Before the Sequel is also worth checking out)

Those are the big ones that come to mind. I'm sure I'm missing a few, but such is life.

Psycho Waluigi and Toadette Strikes Back look top notch. 

This one isn't out yet but I think any Mega Man X fan owes it to them self to keep up with Mega Man X corrupted.

Keep it up guys. A lot of good things up here. Sonic AtS and MMX:Corrupted look primo. Whereas DoomRL looks like something that wouldnt work with my arcade.

I'd say Bunny Must Die is obscure but apparently (had no idea) it's on steam now. Its a pretty neat Metroidvania.

This is my fav thread. I love finding new stuff to play. Added this to my wishlist. looks like a 90s crazy japanese platformer, which is totally my style.

Well you're in luck because I remembered another one MegaMari – Marisa no Yabou. Blatant Mega Man clone for sure but you can easily find it with google. English patch available too I believe.

Edit... I think you need a 3rd party app to use a controller on this one.

While these dont have the Polish of the other games there still pretty neat.  These are all Touhou games I think

Super Marisa Land

 

New Super Marisa Land

 

PatchCon: Defend the Library

Got a few more. Though these arent all free... and some of these wont seem obscure to many, but for those who don't keep up with the indie scene, they will be pleasant surprises. These are all games you can play with a controller.

Really cool games here I'll have to check out. I dont have much to add, but Windowframe has a neat concept and The Sexy Brutale was a fun little murder mystery game.

Does anyone have the walk/run working in super smash bros. crusade?  no matter what options I turn on for the feature, I'm always walking. 

Did you use a controller or keyboard? It worked fine on my controller after I set it up as the input device.

yeah, i was able to select my gamecube controller from the list, and map everything.  I tried mapping walk to d-pad left right, analog left right, and nothing. No matter what i map the walk to none of the options (2tap2run,hold2run, etc.) work.  It's always on walk.

Walk is a button you have to hold while pressing a direction. I imagine you cant set walk to a directional button. I think I had mine on R2 on my wii u pro controller and pressed/held it while moving. Try adding "walk" to a different button.

No idea, I just downloaded/tried it to answer your question lol. I'm sure you could look at a faq for your smash game of choice on gamefaqs. They usually have controls listed at the top. I haven't really played smash since the n64 days tbh. Double taps to run usually feels right to me in fighters.
