Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure. Yes, the game is girly, it's very easy, the dungeon designs are lame and the battle system stinks something fierce...oh wait we're meant to be focusing on the positives, aren't we? Well, the game has that whole "theatrical musical" thing going for it, which adds a great touch. The graphics are pleasing, too, and the story is so lighthearted. That's the beauty of it, really; it doesn't take itself too seriously. It's aesthetic and humble, and I love it for that. (Compared to my initial thoughts of "girl's game lol puppet", that's quite a change)

Agreeing with this! I think most people who hate it are just expecting something different than what the game's trying to be. Which is okay, but the game still excels at what it does, if you ask me.
I've got two more that I don't think have been mentioned yet.
First is the
Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation series. I'm not a big fan of giant robots, really, but these games have amazing gameplay and customization, optional challenge, and fun characters. Not to mention the music is good as well. The second
Original Generation game is among my favorites, as well as the PS2 remake of both of the GBA
Original Generation games. I actually ended up playing
OG1 6 times and
OG2 5 times (including playthroughs of the remake). They're just that good.
The other is
Etrian Odyssey. I was honestly expecting a boring dungeon crawler, but only got the dungeon crawling aspect. The character customization in this game is quite fun, since every class gets a variety of interesting, unique, and helpful skills, rather than "skill that does damage, skill that does more damage, and skill that does EVEN MORE DAMAGE". The dungeon crawling aspect itself was helped by the enemies actually being somewhat threatening, meaning you have to manage your resources wisely, but also not be afraid to burn them in tight spots. Also, the dungeon itself is quite pretty, and the layout of the floors were somewhat interesting (for all that the fourth stratum can GO DIE IN A HOLE).
(Apparently someone mentioned
Etrian Odyssey while I was typing this out. Glad someone agrees with me!)
How ya doing, buddy?
