What’s the worst game you loved as a kid?
- Thread starter SENPAIatLARGE
- Start date
Bucky O'hare on the NES. Rented that game so many times from the local grocery store. Don't think I ever beat it.
Not one of my favorite games, but I had fun with Quest 64, which is regarded as one of the worst RPGs ever.
Also from that era, I really liked Fighter's Destiny and Flying Dragon, both for N64. I don't think they're considered "bad" but didn't make much impact in the fighting genre.

Probably Transformers : Battle to save the Earth on the C64.
Looks pretty bad now, but I loved it when I was a kid.

Hey bloody roar is still awesome and needs a damn sequel already!

Loved the Friday the 13th movies so I banged my head against this bastard for far longer than is rational.
...I still play it sometimes.
Every time I see this cover art I get a wierd disconnect between the NES game and the movie (that is part 7 Jason on the cover). I can watch that movie and it doesn't seem very dated, but the game...
My first Bloody Roar was the one on Gamecube and I remember loving it. I guess I like gimmicky fighters
Jade Cocoon 1 or 2 maybe. I remember loving them as a kid, but I am not sure if they were any good.
That would be Weird Dreams, from Rainbird, for me:
the game is really weird, the play-through is 15 minutes long, but i spent days and days on it... perhaps because of the ballerina with nutcracker excerpt... if you have the patience:

Absolutely loved this game. Beat it the day it came out. Played it all day. Replayed it so many times.
I dare not play it again all these years later...
The awful TMNT game on NES/C64. I asked for a Ninja Turtles game for xmas expecting the Konami brawler, and what I got was...endless death and frustration. But it was my main xmas gift that year, so I just forced myself to enjoy it in a way that only a kid can.
Probably Spider-Man & the X-Men in Arcade's Revenge for the game boy.
It just blew my mind that they were in the same game together. I never managed to beat it but I played it for hours on end. It's garbage.
Also, the Blues Brothers game by Titus on pc. What a piece of shit game but I loved the film and I thought it was a really fun platformer back then. I tried to replay it recently and... Oh boy, it's terrible.

Oh, our posts are highlighted now. This forum keeps getting better and better.

The Spiderman 2 movie game...on PC. Played through it again this year and it's just awful.
But as a kid it didn't matter as long as it was about spiderman and I also kinda learned the wasd+mouse control scheme with that game.

Jimmy Neutron for the GameCube. Maybe I was just a dumb kid but I remember a huge difficulty spike near the end.
Pokémon Stadium maybe? I'm sure the game has aged poorly.
Not the mini games though, those are solid.

From the era when I briefly owned SNES. Love them both but they just weren't on a par with other classics.
I don't know about the SNES conversion but Gods was developed by the Bitmap Brothers whose work is generally well regarded.
Anyway, here's a stinker played lots of (also, its stinky sequels!):
Another for Mission Impossible 64 here, and also Fighting Force 64, Body Harvest and Pokemon Stadium without the transfer pack.
I had the majority of the must-play N64 games throughout it's lifespan and it saddens me that I devoted a months of my life to janky shit like the above when I could have been playing more OoT, Majora's Mask, Goldeneye, Mario 64, Banjo Kazooie, Perfect Dark etc.
Also played the crap out of Simpsons Wrestling and A Bug's Life on the PS1 when I could have been playing MGS or Abe's Oddysee.
