I'm starting to suspect there's a group of people who wait until near the end to boost whatever isn't winning.

I can add to this:
Spotto!/Bird & Bombs (DSiWare)
Cubivore (Gamecube)
Doshin the Giant (Gamecube/64DD)
Giftpia (Gamecube)
Captain Rainbow (Wii)
Teleroboxer (Virtual Boy)
Rusty's Real Deal Baseball (3DS eShop)
Disaster: Day of Crisis (Wii)
Flingsmash (Wii)
Electroplankton (DS)
Geist (Gamecube)
Eternal Darkness (Gamecube)
Photo Dojo! (DSiWare)
Looksley's Line Up/Tales in a Box (DSiWare)
Galactic Pinball (Virtual Boy)

Steel Diver isn't a One Hit Wonder - there was a download only multiplayer sequel on 3DS.
Bird & Beans is questionable too because it was originally part of Warioware before being released as a standalone DSiWare title.

One Hit Wonders has been one of the strongest performing ones the whole time. :roll:

Thanks so much for voting and for the super awesome lists, everyone ^w^

I do have Doshin the Giant, but that game is a heck of a time commitment and not one I enjoy playing all that much, so I don't think I'll be playing through that one ^^;

I've got Captain Rainbow already, but there's always the eShop as well. Perhaps I'll pick up Mole Mania and finally play through that~

As for ones on that list I've played, I can recommend For Frog the Bell Tolls, Cubeivore, and Tomato Adventure as good times~
