The Worst of Super Nintendo (SNES)

[QBert]

I forgot to add a game myself.

Batman Returns. This game just sucks. So hard to play, no fun.
My 2 pennies.



And no worries on the mario kart opinions here.

1. Street Combat
2. Power Moves
3. Double Dragon V
4. Brandish
-Normally I'm a fan of Koei games, but I don't know what the hell they were thinking with this one.

[Pedro Lambrini]

Any Batman game! My fave Super Hero completely destroyed!! Have they ever made a good batman game for any platform!?!

Dream TV was pretty messed up.

[Famidrive-16]

Dream TV was pretty messed up.

This is one I was thinking of. I don't think it's possible to get very far in single player... hell, I'm sure the co-op's just as bad.

Bebe's Kids is pretty damn bad too, I don't know what they were thinking when they did that haunted house level with the random rooms.

I second Brandish. I forgot about this pitiful excuse for an RPG.

I dont think Mario Kart is that bad...however i do sometimes wish there were more battle tracks and a 4-player mode.


I'm suprised nobody mentioned "Wolfenstein 3D".

[esquire]

I have one word......Shaq-Fu

[pkupstixx]

As bad as the sports titles were 2 i remember being horrible were:

Troy Aikmen football
Jerry Glanville pigskin footbrawl

plus:

Rap Jam Volume 1
Shaq Fu ( said earlier)
Spiderman/X-Men: Arcade's Revenge (most super hero games were bad. But one The Adventures of Batman game that was great was the one that was based on the animated series. It followed the early cartoon very closely in its animation and wasnt on Genisis)
Revolution X
Street Combat

[Ruudos]

Super Mariio Kart is definitely better than MK64, surely in one-player mode. I don't like that in MK64, it doesn't matter if you use stars or lightning in that game, the oither drivers are just behind you again in 2 seconds.

Faceball 2000 (smiley faces you have to shoot)
Micro Machines (point?)
Hyperzone (3d F-Zero type game)
The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare

Someone put Top Gear 3000. I liked that game.

[-hellvin-]

Wow, there sure are a lot of horrible games on this system. But one I must specifically mention would have to be the abyssmal, horrific, utter abortion of the gaming womb known as Wayne's World.

[Predatorxs]

Holy Sh*t!! People, someone lock up this thread before the whole Snes library is killed off

I'm a huge snes collector (over 600 games) and i'm beginning to question my quest of snes collecting.......Emmmm....

Nahh the Quest Continues!! and my collection website will be unveiled! sooon!

I have it already online (for the last 2 months) but i'm tweakin' bits! :P

Jeremy Parish of 1UP.com showed me a Super Nintendo title called Brandish back when he was living in Michigan. He had told me about the game in the past, but I wasn't expecting it to be so frighteningly bad. When he first described it to me, I thought that the levels rotated smoothly whenever you turned, like in the overhead scenes in Contra III. That would have been disorienting enough, but the playfields actually shift 45 degrees every time you turn. There's no smooth transition from North to West... it just switches from one viewpoint to the next. The rest of the game was already very unimpressive, but the shifting viewpoints shifted its quality from first gear to reverse.

I'll defend Drakkhen, SoM, Mario Kart, and Batman Returns.

One game that hasn't been mentioned is the biggest piece of crap: The Rocketeer.

I actually have a Brandish poser on my door. Not the world's best game, but it is a nice looking poster. :P

[Saabmeister]

How come no-one has said Captain Novolin.
THe worst SNES game. Ever.

[vintagegamecrazy]

Lets make this topic easier, any RAYA System games are craptacular.
Batman Returns was great.
Some on my list
Lester the Unlikely
Brandish
Skuljagger's Revenge
Drakkhen
Vortex
Wayne's World
Buster Busts Loose

More but I don't have my collection or a book with me.

I would have to agree with you on that one.

Super Mario Kart - Having played the N64 version first, the graphics are dated and confusing...

Ben

Im going to have to say BAH? here.
Of course the graphics are going to be dated compared to a NEWER SYSTEM.

Yeah, Super Mario Kart is EXCELLENT still to this day. "Dated" graphics or not, it's still one of the best examples of pure all out fun you have have with a friend.

I never had much fun with Mario Kart on the SNES, with or without a friend.
