Hmm maybe Tactics Ogre? - Granted I only played the reborn version which is a remaster of a psp remake of the 1995 game. And nice! Didn't know 8bitdo made a saturn controller looks sick.

Definitely give Baroque a try, it's gonna be a love it or hate it type situation but it's an absolute trip. Also check out this site

Burning Rangers is a bit rough around the edges gameplay wise but it's a classic

Astal for those funky hand-drawn graphics, Bulk Slash is very anime and has big robots

And of course, you really ought to play Virtual Hydlide... And, uh, Death Crimson...

You're missing Nights into Dreams, thats the main big one imo.
Theres also some weirder ones like Lunacy, a strange FMV adventure that feels like the precursor to games like Shadow of Memories (if you know that one). Dark Savior is good too, sounds really edgy but it's a fun little experimental JRPG with some good graphics.

@DizzySkullKid19 ive played nights christmas actually, i didnt really like it much. the gameplay was good but being so close to the character and moving about like that made me feel nautious. ill give it another go sometime i wanna get into it

@imshitting420 Fair, Nights isn't for everyone. I like the music and art direction for it (the OST is sublime), but yeah the motion is really hard to get a handle on, the controls are meh, the game is too short and arcade-like for it's own good, there are a bunch of critiques I also have of it.

a thing about Nights that I struggled at first was not understanding it was about getting as much points as you can rather than Sonic speed. and once I understood that, my rankings became decent.
