Brad2600 Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Actually, Friday the 13th was pretty interesting. Not the best game, but I found it frightening to play when I was younger. Especially when Jason suddenly appeared! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candiru Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 a boy and his blob ? i dont know if they was just a homebrew game' date=' but its friggin awful. Xmen is absolutly terribleSkate or Die was friggin awsome! [/color'] Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but wasn't A Boy and His Blob by the much beloved David Crane? It does have a sort of Pitfallesque look to it. I've finished it but I probably won't play it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 it was by David Crane. I liked the game, the only drawbacks were that there were too many different jellybeans to remember, and it was impossible to get all of the treasures, as there was a treasure underwater that required the hands of a surgeon to reach.

joeybastard Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I hated Goonies II (was there a Goonies 1? I've never seen it). In fact almost all of the LJN games suck real bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I hated Goonies II (was there a Goonies 1? I've never seen it). In fact almost all of the LJN games suck real bad. I loved Goonies II! I thought it was awesome all the different screens in it. Athena was the absolute WORST thing on the NES. I hesitate to call it a game because I'm not sure one existed under the crappy graphics.

chrisbid Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 there was a goonies arcade game that had the same look to Goonies II, but it didnt have the 3D adventure elements, just platroming stages. I liked Major League Baseball from LJN, but it was really close to RBI Baseball from Tengen, to an untrained eye, the two games could easily be confused.

pseudonymr Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 hehe. you haven't seen a horrible game until you play action 52. it's awfulness is beyond words and easily way worse than any game listed here, except probably cheetahmen 2, also by active enterprises. about ikari warriors. i personally don't like that game but i know other people who love it. anyway, i agree videomation isn't a bad game as far as drawing games go, but i don't like it, mostly because i'm not an artist at all. i got some more additions: -how could you forget AD&D: heroes of the lance. =) -wally bear and the NO! gang is pretty bad. -i should have written that all color dreams/bunch games and wisdom tree are bad with the only exception (i think) being spiritual warfare, which was a descent zelda clone as long as you turn off the music. -ring king, but only for the scene that happens between the rounds, if you've ever played this game before...

sku_u Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I liked Athena and Ikari Warriors. Taboo was the worst one IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were many like that, like Top Gun in the arcade, mostly seen on the .vs cabinets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burke_01 Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I hated Goonies II (was there a Goonies 1? I've never seen it). In fact almost all of the LJN games suck real bad. There was a Goonies 1 on the MSX computer, although it never came out in North America. It played a lot like Goonies 2 except slower.

Bivotar Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Soon after I bought my NES back in the 80's, I picked up Super Pitfall (or something close to that title). I thought, "hey, it's based on Pitfall. It HAS to be good." Oh how wrong I was. I truly hated that game. Surprisingly the store I bought it from let me take it back. After that I tried to adopt a 'rent before purchase' philosophy, unless I knew I was going to LOVE the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somePUNK Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 it isn't that bad of game if you ignor it sapose to be like pitfall it can be fun it dosen't diserve to be on the list of wrost games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 I must be one of the few that actually enjoyed Super Pitfall. My only gripe about it was the 'hidden rooms' you had to find to solve the game, but I never had a problem finding them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattG/Snyper2099 Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 I think operation secret storm, although very amusing, is one of the worst NES games. That magic carpet game on the myriad 6 in 1 cart is a worthless excuse for a side scrolling shooter. Total piece of crap! MattG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudonymr Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 super pitfall wasn't that bad. i liked the non-linear gameplay and as long as i turn off the music i can enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all I bought a boxed Deadly Towers at the CGExpo for $5, and that's #1 on his list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougy76 Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 Anticipation. I believe the label included an exclamation point at the end of the title but frankly I feel it to be undeserving of such allusions to excitement. I thought Aniticipation was a pretty good game. It was one of the few games that my parents actually approved of. I remember asking for that game one Christmas and I also asked for Final Fantasy, which is still an awesome RPG. One game that I remember my brother and I rented which really sucked was Kid Niki. We put it in, and played it a couple of times, and we couldn't believe how sucky it was. Game rental was great because you could check out the game before you bought it. Another game that we rented that wasn't too bad, but annoyed me to death was Spelunker. The controls in that game were so bad and too sensitive and made it too easy to die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 Well, going waaay back a few years, according to Nintendo Power's 50th issue (With the gold cover and the owl from Link's Awakening on it) Shaq-Fu was the worst NES game ever.

snorlaxnut Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 The two worst NES games I haved played: 1.Ikari Warriors II: Victory Road The introductory screens came up way too slow for NES standards, moving from the game to the item screen and back to the game was just as slow, and if you don't move your man after a couple of minutes, these weird spotted blobs start raining down and end the game. 2.Wayne's World You could avoid about most of enemies until you get to the tv studio stage. There, the stupid tv screens start flying at you and you can't hit them without losing about 3/4 of your energy! And the ending is just a picture of Wayne! Paid $10 for it, about $9.95 too much after playing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
