Posted: Jan 07 2009 09:47 pm

Here it is. This is the Top 25 Worst Nintendo Games List.

While I agree with some parts of the list, most of it kind of pisses me off. For one, the list has both Super Scope 6 and Yoshi's Safari, both of which I really love. It also has Yoshi Topsy Turvy, which I also liked.

If you find something about the list that pisses you off, feel free to speak.

Only got to 22. Shitty format for a list. Also, GEIST? Are you kidding me, GEIST?! That game certainly was not one of the best Nintendo games, but it also is nowhere near the worst. I bought it off of eBay about a year ago and I really enjoyed. Theres nothing "clunky" or "choppy" about it. I remember it being released near the end of the Gamecube's life, and I think if they had tried a little harder, it could have done something to save it.

Finally, someone else who liked Geist. It may not have been as good as the Metroid Prime games, but I think it did its job rather well. The multiplayer wasn't too bad, either. Also, I really liked the concept of the game; it was quite innovative for a first-person shooter.

The list format does suck. I was happy to see that so many Pokemon games were on the list. I have never played a Pokemon game, but perhaps those developers will make other games if they get bad reviews. Oh wait... then they might make other shitty games.

Also why the hits on the Virtualboy? No one ever expected good games from it, just cool effects.

I never played Teleroboxer, but I think that game may have been decent. I think I want to play it now.

I never truly played the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games, but they look good to play. Is that true?

To be fair, Pokemon Dash got some really lousy reviews. That one may deserve to be on that list.

Honestly, I liked Mystery Dungeon, and Hey You, Pikachu wasn't that bad. I never played Dash, but the biggest kick to my PokeBalls is the Pokemon Snap Reference. That game was AWESOME! also, My Pokemon Ranch isn't supposed to be a game, it's a really big storage box.

Why? You gonna throw a plastic ball at me that has a fluffy yellow rabbit pillow in it?

That would probably make me happy, not dead. I've been sleeping poorly and could use something soft to rest on.

Yeah... I'm just gonna pretend you didn't say that.

Anyway, GameDaily can go choke on a dick and die. This list fails on so many levels. Super Scope 6 was great, and not only for Blastris. Kirby's Air Ride was good for what it was. Geist was fucking awesome. Gumshoe was great. and putting Mario Party there was the last straw for me. I could rant for hours more, but I'm too lazy.

Also, am I the only person that liked Urban Champion?

I didn't think anybody would mention that game. Go figure. . . Confused

In any case, I downloaded it into my Virtual Console at one point and I thought it was a pretty good game. Sure, it was mostly about knocking your opponent through three screens, but the simplicity in the game play was the beauty of it.

No, I'm gonna throw a plastic ball at you that has a fluffy yellow rabbit pillow that will run 30'000 volts through your heart in it.

I drool in my sleep, so no doubt that will act as some insulation from the electricity. Either that or it will act as a conduit and burn my mouth.

Either way, I've been wanting a massage pillow.

As a fellow Pokemaniac, I'll also stand up in support of Snap. I just wish Project 64 could support it properly... All the main Pokemon games have been fine RPG's... it's when they get into other stuff where the series falters. The Stadium/Colosseum games, the Mystery Dungeon games, the Ranger games, Dash... all of them have been rather subpar. Pokemon fans have been waiting more than 10 years for a plain, normal Pokemon game on a 3d system, so that alters my view of Stadium, Colosseum, and XD. (Though I still say that XD was named for the laughing emoticon, laughing at the idiots that bought it).

It's irritating that they focus on the side projects of the series and yet badmouth the series as a whole. Pokemon brings a lot of good memories to me, such as introducing me to the world of RPGs as well as being downright addictive. This list is trash.

Oh, and Mario Tennis on the Virtual Boy = win.

Of course not. Back when all I had was an NES, Urban Champion was really my only option if I wanted to play a fighting game. (I don't consider Karate Kid, Karate Champ, Flying Warriors, or Secret Scroll: Flying Dragon fighting games due to their unfathomable sucktitude.)

And what are everybody's feelings about Wii Music being on the list?

I'm not going to lie, I have neutral feelings on that; while I think it's fun to play with a friend, the game was mostly a huge disappointment to me. I still loved the NES horn, though. To be honest, it was half the reason I bought the game.

I don't know if you know, but I could also throw plastic balls at you with giant snakes made of boulders, a giant steel bug with razors for hands, or a freaking robot in it. I win.

I've played Pokémon (mostly Silver) quite a bit, though not much anymore. It's nice when you have a long car ride, and the gameplay is good.
The games would be much better though, if they were completable. You can buy every single game and you'll NEVER have a complete Pokédex. I don't want to go to Japan just to get a fucking Mew.

Wii Music is a bit of a cluttered mess. It's hard to find a combination of instruments that doesn't sound like someone threw a grenade into a high school band room.

That may have been the best review of Wii Music ever. Laughing

*Sees Teleroboxer as soon as I hit the link*

That was my favorite VB game after Wario Land! Fuck those guys. Why is Kirby's Air Ride there? It's easily one of the best games on the GCN, and why are games that aren't even Nintendo's on the list?(Street Fighter II, and Tenchu) Seriously, this site has already lost all credit of it's intelligence to me.

Well, those games are on the list for the same reason Geist, Super Scope 6 and Yoshi's Safari are on the list. Those guys just don't appreciate games like we do. Unfortunately, we can't just change the list ourselves.

This just in, people don't like lists that badmouth things they enjoy!

I will admit it's kinda odd to have non-Nintendo games on the list,.

Posted: Jan 08 2009 03:25 am

Hah, I stopped reading after he said Yoshi's Story was "bad".

Any "worst off" list that includes virtual boy games fails right off the bat for taking cheap shots.
