The Super Nintendo Entertainment System is one of our favorite video game console of all time! It has tons of classic games so it only makes sense that a few great ones will slip through the cracks. EIGHT OVERLOOKED SNES GAMES PLOK SOFTWARE CREATIONS Plok is a side-scrolling platform game developed by Software Creations and released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993. The game grew out of an aborted arcade game called Fleapit. Plok can launch any of his limbs at will to damage enemies. Once the damage has been done they return to Plok. Some puzzles involve having to "sacrifice" one of Plok's limbs to activate switches (thus decreasing Plok's mobility and his chances in battle). Shigeru Miyamoto expressed strong interest in working on the game. However, Nintendo ultimately decided against publishing Plok.
