Most Regrettable Gaming Moment

[chadtower]

No one has any game PLAYING moments they regret? It's ALL about collecting and getting rid of stuff?

Mine is probably the time I broke my friend's nose after he 'accidentally' reset the NES after I won a game of Baseball Stars. I didn't get the money, didn't get to power up my shortstop... so I threw him off the couch. Unfortunately he landed on his face. Ow. I think we were 16.

Another was watching another friend catch an ass whuppin from his father because of Zelda. We'd sat there for like 5 hours trying to beat the blue knights, the whole last hour his mother telling us to stop playing and go outside. When we finally beat the knights, we went nuts, jumping all over the furniture and being generally insane. His mother came in and turned the NES off BEFORE WE SAVED and told us to go outside. My friend had a monster tantrum calling her every name he could think of in English AND Italian... and then his father decided enough was enough and gave him a whuppin. The whole time I'm sitting there like "uh, I don't THINK he'll whup me... but maybe he will, who knows?" He didn't.

How many more people have PLAYING regrettable moments? I suspect that's what the original poster wanted.

The first time I beat bowser in Super Mario World I was so proud that I told my friend that my SNES was the best system ever and while I said that I patted my SNES, and of course it reset before I could see the ending ... I wanted to see the ending so badly that me and my friend spent the next 3 hours trying to beat bowser again and finally did... I never touched my SNES while it was turned on again... I learned my lesson.

Another I can think of is when I let my little sister play Super Mario 64 and she erased my 108 Star file.... 64 hours I'll never get back...
