Ten Least Favorite NES Games

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

We already have a thread, so to be Mr. Contrary, here's the other thread.

 

A few games that roll off the brain are...

 

Back to The Future

Fester's Quest

JAWS

Adventures Of Rocky & BullWinkle

Mario Is Missing!

WWF Steel Cage Challenge

Any Random Sesame Street Game

 

 

Thats to name a few. I haven't played my NES games/ROMS for a while, so it's hard to think em up.

I remember renting that back in the day, played it for 4 minutes, and thought to myself "This fucking sucks"*

 

 

*My reaction if it were today.

Mario Is Missing!

That's a SNES game.

 

It doesn't belong on any NES listing of crappy games.

 

As for myself, I could name quite a plentiful amount of games that were crap from the NES era.

 

Sadly, I owned quite a bit of them.

[Kahran Ramsus 0]

Total Recall deserves mentioning.

[A Happy Medium 0]

Wayne's World...just pitiful.

I'm pretty sure it was NES...I'll check my Download section.

Ahem....Mario Is Missing is on NES too I guess.

[Anya 0]

On that list, I'd go with Fester's Quest. As a kid I had like no idea how to play it.

WTF?

 

I thought it was just SNES.

 

Well, I just learnt something new today.

 

Really crappy games get remade, and made even worse.

I had no clue how to play it either....and I owned it...

I find it disturbing they made it for two seperate systems even though SNES was already out.

Good point.

 

Even weirder, is it was done by two different companies.

 

NES is done by Nintendo.

 

SNES is done by Software Creations, published by Mindscape.

I got as far as one boss, and I own the game. I played the game for like 2 hrs. too. Thats how bad it is.

I think I'll find somewhere to DL the game, to see its worthy of "Worst SNES games list". Judging from GameFAQs.com, it don't look too good.

Trust me...

 

The only game that beats it out is Mario Paint for all time worst game on the SNES.

 

As for NES, I'd actually like to nominate that Olympic Game with the running pad control. God that was a stupid idea.

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

Let's not forget Home Alone.

 

Here's the jist of it. You run around the house for 30:00 (game time that is) without being caught. If you're caught, you start all over.

 

 

 

... Yes, thats the ENTIRE GAME!

A shitload of people had an NES at the time the SNES was still being released. Unlike a company that sucks like Sega, who drops a system like a hot potato for the new ones, Nintendo kept making games for it.

 

There were quite a few games that came out on SNES, NES, and Game Boy around the same time. A quick scan of the list of NES games also brings up Aladdin, Jungle Book, Lion King, Wario's Woods, a ton of TMNT titles, etc. Development on NES continued until the mid-90s I think, and Nintendo made a newer, smaller NES unit shortly after the SNES began to pick up, too.

 

I never had an NES, so the games I played mostly were good ones, but I played Snake's Revenge--the unofficial Metal Gear game so bad it was struck from canon--and Yo Noid. Both were real stinkers.

 

Street Fighter 2010 looks terrible, but I haven't actually played it first hand.

That's a shame. I remember the Genesis game being quite good--you could set traps for the baddies and make weapons by combining different items.

You hated World Class Track Meet?

 

That game was GREAT! Just tap a couple of spoons on the pad instead of actually running on it and you fly down the track.

[The Amazing Rando 0]

Oh yeah...well I *beat* Yo Noid.

 

beat THAT.

[Guest Smues]

I actually liked Fester's Quest, but it was hard as hell. I don't remember if I ever beat it, but after hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of play I did get very far into it. For worst NES game I'd say Robocop. I remember using all my christmas money and to buy this and borrowing some from my sister, and being incredibly let down. You can't jump, robocop is a puss, and even today I have to cheat like hell with an emulator to beat it.

[Guest wildpegasus]

Rambo, is the game noone likes.

Played it and really enjoyed it.

[Rendclaw 0]

I played Street Fighter 2010 back when I worked at a NES store int he local mall, and yes it really, REALLY sucked.

[Guest Krazy Karter]

Home Alone was fun as hell - especially the shot of Macauly Culken going "Oh No!" after your friends lost.

 

I also beat Yo Noid.

 

Treasure Master - now that was shit.

[Youth N Asia 0]

-Fester's Quest...hated having to start all over

-Gauntlet...boring, goes on forever

-Friday The 13th...too hard and once you beat Jason...he comes back

-Jaws...boring

-Rygar...you couldn't save

-Skate or Die...part 2 was great, this one wasn't

 

And while it's fun for a while....RC Pro Am fuckin' cheats near the end.

 

And for some reason, I really liked the Bible games.

Home Alone 2 was worse. You are chased around by appliances, such as vacuum cleaners and brooms. Then, once you make it to the boss of the first level, you have so little health left that it is impossible to beat. My friends and I played that game for hours and could never get past the chef.

<-----always been a hardcore horror fan

 

Friday the 13th.

 

It's sooooo hard to beat Jason for good, and when you do there is virtually no reward.........bastards.

[Youth N Asia 0]

I beat Jason once Gamegenieless and they gave me that "it's not over crap." I played for a little while long. Then I saw Jason again, declared "fuck this!" and quit

Believe it or not it is possible to defeat Jason.....for good. Too bad all they do is show you a screen that says "Congratulations" and it shows the knife going through the eyehole of the mask. So in other words....

 

 

 

BOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

I'm almost ashamed to admit it, but I actually bought that game. I think I still have it somewhere. Not only did the game suck, but it was pretty damn hard.
