Is this the game for SNES that had all the awesome mini games?
The first screenshot is of Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster Busts Loose for SNES. The second shot below it is Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure for Genesis. They're both pretty fun. Buster's Hidden Treasure has absurdly long passwords, though... but of course Buster Busts Loose has no saving, so I don't know which is worse... anyway, both are pretty good games. The one you are thinking of, though, is Tiny Toon Adventures: Wacky Sports Challenge for SNES, which took the sprites and graphics from Buster Busts Loose and used them in an awesome minigame/olympic sports style title. It was indeed a pretty great game, but it's not a platformer. It is definitely a game worth recognition, but it's more like something between Track & Field and Mario Party than anything else... (and it has 4-player support! Awesome with a multitap!)

I played Yoshi's Story recently, it's actually somewhat under-rated... the graphics are great, it's a lot of fun, the difficulty's not bad (it seems to have Star Fox's save system, but it silently autosaves between levels, so just reset the system and you can restart the level...
), and it's fun. It is all about collecting, and if you really want to beat it you do have to complete some pretty frustrating melon collection quests (that make the "reset to try again" thing absolutely essential, as it's easy to permanently fail to get some melons), but you don't HAVE to do all of that.

Yes! Easily some of the best platformers ever! After Mario and Sonic, Keen is probably my third-favorite platformer series... the first trilogy was best, really, but the second set of three games is great too (Keen Dreams isn't that good, though). I think Keen 3 was my favorite one... awesome, awesome game. Interesting twist ending for a game of its type. Good graphics and gameplay. Great sense of humor. Yorps.
Keen 1... back when I got it I didn't have any consoles, just PC. I'd played console and arcade games of course, but didn't have them... so Keen was one of the most amazing experiences ever. You really can't match nostalgia value like that... and it's held up amazingly well too! Keen 3 might be better overall, but the first one is special.
