I used to get these crappy "James Pond" games over and over. For the Sega Genesis.

Robo Cod!
Sonic 2 and on were common rentals of mine. I also rented Dune Battle for Arrakis a lot. I finally purchased a copy in the early 00s. But I think the game I rented the most was Another World, and there was another one of similar concept around the same time (which I think was a genesis exclusive) that I rented a lot.
I think you may mean Flashback, which was one that I definitely spent some time with during rental weekends.
That is the one!
I lived in a smaller town when i was younger and we rented video games from the grocery store. I recall n64 games on one side of a display rack, and vegetables on the other.
Our household used to rent RUSH 2049, Vigilante 8, and Gauntlet often. Many fun weekends to be had!
Kirby and the crystal shards on N64 was my JAM back then
My cousin and I used to rent Guerilla War for the NES just about every weekend. As an adult, I bought the game just purely out of nostalgia.
Similarly, I remember I rented Donkey Kong Jr (also NES) so often that my dad eventually bought it for me just to save on rental fees.
For the N64, my go-tos were Bomberman 64 and Smash Bros.
We used to rent a Genesis I think, with some kind of off-road buggy game? Good times.
