Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

N64 "Beetle Adventure Racing" is crazy fun! Race against the clock to improve your time, race the computer, race another player, and best of all are the wild Arena battles - up to 4 players. This was always big fun at family gatherings.

Wii "Godzilla Unleashed" is my favorite solo game. I'd run the sound through my home theater and crank up all the lovely authentic Toho kaiju roars, screeches, howls, and destruction. Controls varied slightly by monster but always felt intuitive. Battling other beasts could get a little glitchy in tight quarters but knock a few buildings out of the way and all's well. Greatest cathartic stress reliever, ever!
