Games can become terrible when they are too difficult, so snes is full of them:

• Super Adventure Island
• Lethan Weapon
• Battletoads in Battlemaniacs
• Jurassic Park

To mention a few.

Secret of Mana

Secret of Mana

It's easy to say a game is "worst" just because you dislike it and don't care about what others think, otherwise I would drop the bomb and say most of Nintendo's games are rubbish and run away lolol.

True, but I do consider it almost unplayably bad. It's got good music and decent art, but the gameplay is just absolute dogshit, imo, so it's a funnier pick than Lester the Unlikely

But I suppose I have to respect it a bit for what it did for japanese action RPGs!

Secret of Mana

True.

I relate because this is exactly why I disliked Uncharted 4 lolol.

Race Drivin' which is the worst version of the game for being unplayable and with a lousy frame rate and well-degraded graphics that itself the arcade version was decent.

Absolutely terrible SNES games:

Race Drivin' - I checked this out at my local video rental store one Friday where I was excited to pay video games and it was so awful (polygon 5 frames per sec) I starting crying as a 7 year old and begged my mom to take it back and pick something else. Ironcially, thats how I discovered the gem Demon's Crest.

Drakkhen & Populous - lumping these turds into one group as my "friend" tried to trade both of these games to me for my copy of Final Fantasy III....I almost fell for it too. When I see those games I cringe.

Pit Fighter (no matter how many times it has already been mentioned. Yes, it is that bad)

Shadow of the Beast

Tom & Jerry

 

[Darren]

Pit Fighter, got that one as a teen. Finished that crap on the power of hatred alone

I have a soft spot for the Sega Genesis and Arcade versions. We got Sega Channel on X-mas 1994, and the first game I played on there was Pit Fighter. It's so unbelievably 1990/1991 through the A E S T H E T I C S alone, the game is a perfect 5/5 for me lol

Pit Fighter is really that bad?

For the SNES version it is horrible for being unplayable (for being very crude and unresponsive), unfair (Because you only have 1 life and there's no continues) and ugly (graphically).

I searched race drivin on the repo and theres a patch that fixes the speed of the game.

One Life and NO continues!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nelson2001 Nelson2001]

One Life and NO continues!!!!!!!!!

If that is unfair and also that the game does not give you the courtesy to increase your life points after 3 fights and also that the learning curve is very high but in a bad way.

Super Mario Kart. DID NOT age well at all. Play this if you want to suffer.


Ballz 3D. The title speaks for itself.


Terminator 2. More LJN trash.


Ren and Stimpy Fire Dogs. Hope you like bad game design.


Captain Novilin. You’d rather want to get diabetes than play this shitty ass game.


Mega Man & Bass. Play this game if you hate yourself.

Mega Man & Bass is an underrated gem. :D

If you want to get pissed off, play Spider-Man & X-men Arcade's Revenge.

good music, bad gameplay.

Oh the music is fan-fucking-tastic! The spritework is decent too, really the graphics and everything else about the game is incredibly good, it's just the damn gameplay, and even that's only really ruined by the insane difficulty. Storm could stand to have less/no water stages, though.

Edit: I forgot to mention, Gambit's card-throwing sucks, what the fuck even is that awkward forward lob? You're sposed to throw them between two fingers, flicking the wrist outward as you release, so that it flies farther and harder. Gambit knows how to throw cards, there's really no reason to make it that shitty.

Also what the fuck is that lazy kick Scott Summers does? Are we stretching before the fight? Stupid.

Revolution X - The SNES just wasn't up to porting it, and it was a light gun game with no light gun.
