Hover Bovver. You had to mow your lawn whilst avoiding your neighbour trying to get his mower back.
(Or anything by Jeff Minter)
JCB Digger. Bury the Monsters on an Island with your...JCB.
Gribbly's Day Out. Rescue the little Griblets with your flying one footed green creature.
Wicked : Fight off the Evil Tarot Minions with your Star whilst progressing through the Starsigns.
Wizball : Restore colour to the land whilst avoiding the Filth. With your cat.

Wizball - You're a wizard who transforms himself into a green ball with a face and along with your cat (who incidentally is also transformed into a green ball) must bounce around multi-tiered levels, shoot bad guys and collect the paint they drop to put colour back into the world.
but what makes Mr. Mosquito strange is the voyeuristic sensibilities of the game. i remember there was one level where the teenage girl is sleeping while you are are trying to suck the blood from her inner thigh. there's a moment where she becomes restless and turns on her side, at this point i was actually able to evade her leg and fly between her leg creating an awkward camel toe closeup of an under age crotch.HardRockSamurai said:

No Cho Aniki yet?
Also, in terms of "Why would you even do that to yourself", Mushihimesama, one of the most freakishly difficult bullet bukkake shooters ever.

I'm sure the world's strangest game is some Japanese monstrosity that I haven't played, but the Shin Megami Tensei games were all very "strange".
And although Mario has been completely integrated into today's gaming culture that we don't really think about it anymore, he's still a midget plumber who grows bigger by eating mushrooms and shoots fire when he touches flowers that grow out of floating blocks.

I'll whatever-ordinal EarthBound. Fighting paintings and the game referring to itself in the third person pretty much trumps everything else.
Also, mushrooms growing out of the top of your head, homesickness, and colds are the types of status effects it gives you. Awesome.

Mine is Earthworm Jim, but I found it to be 'funny' strange because i was a fan of the TV series that followed it. But the strangest game to be would be all the Final Fantasy games, mainly because i never played a FF game. Even though i had my friends explain to me what the storyline was behind the game, i could just never understand it.
It's an little flash game, but I gotta add it: Rose and Camilla. It's a game of Japanese origin (of course) where you literally have to ***** slap your way to your inheritance.

Oh, and for strange (but awesome beyond belief) games, I'd like to add anything by Kyle Gabler (http://www.experimentalgameplay.com/member.php?m=3) and On a Rainy Day (http://www.experimentalgameplay.com/game.php?g=5). I mean, you play as a stretchy tree made of human hands who must get tiny paper boats safely across a river. It's fantabulous.
And for mentioning ToeJam and Earl Kehan Wann, you get a forum cookie. *hands you your cookie of choice*
ToeJam and Earl....good times...good times.
