I have been looking a lot at both platform games and puzzle games to help me with inspiration for my own game's development. Here are a few videos I have looked at (mainly classic 8/16 bit games since this was when comercial 2D platform games were at their height).
Not a platform game or puzzle game but wizard themed and I loved this game (And the music)
Jazz Jackrabbit
Sonic The Hedgehog (Master System)
Sonic CD
Chuck Rock 2
Sonic 3 (Lmao at person giving stupid commentary)
Gradius (shoot em up game, but looks great)
Again
Castlevania Dracula X PSP
Castlevania GBA
Dynamite Headdy Final Boss
Another boss from Dynamite Headdy (a really weird one)
Gunstar Heroes
Manic Miner - Makes me feel good about the graphics in my game
Wardner
Quack Shot - game i loved as a kid
A range of puzzle games being reviewed
Hexaxis - A great looking (unreleased?) puzzle game
Advance Theory - unreleased outside japan puzzle game
Super Puzzle Fighter - only played this once but loved it
King of Fighters - looks cool, kind of like super puzzle fighter
Puyo Puyo (someone getting a 19 combo) - very addictive game, similar to Super Puzzle Fighter
Later version of Puyo Puyo on the PSP showing the changinge in graphics and behaviour
I feel I should leave it here...
