Some of Tim Schafer's games need to mentioned too:
I love these guys
And who can ever forget Manny Calavera and the conspiracy in the land of the dead
... shame about his silly heavy metal game

It had Jack Black in it. With that weighing it down, nothing could make it good.
Okami is not unique at all.
There is already a inferior Zelda like game with good art. It is called Windwaker
Excellent topic by the way.
Azure Dreams on the PSOne fits here. It mashed up so many genres into one game is was amazing that the game functioned. But it did and it was awesome.
God bless NiGHTS into Dreams. Let's just forget about the sequel with the worst voice acting ever done shall we?
And last, the Magic of Scheherazade. Best NES game ever. It was an Arabian Legend of Zelda with the addition of occasional turn based RPG battles. Strange mix but it worked. Sadly never got a sequel and never will especially now. ANy game where you save your file in a mosque just won't happen these days.
OK then, here's a unique one:
The Guardian Legend!

Nope. Vader says we can't just forget sequels, no matter how much they suck. They exist, and are a true part of a franchise forever. NiGHTS Journey of Dreams can NEVER be forgotten!

The Guardian Legend!
I'll give you that the game is unique but I never thought that game was fun. Maybe I played it way too late in life (around the PSOne era), but I just couldn't get into that game.

In that case I'd like to take a moment and pee on the bunny, and say yo momma to everyone who forces me to remember Journey Into Dreams.
Here's a unique game that I'd love to see a sequel to. There have been other photo safari games, but this one that really did it well in my book. By keeping it on rails it had a sense of urgency that other photo games like Afrika don't have. Plus the accessories like the stun ball and poke feed gave it a little strategy element that made you stop and think.

^ i thought about it but didn't want to hog the thread too much
Another one of a kind game that had me under its spell for many months
