Classic games with loooooong names

[Kevincal]

So im listing my snes games on ebay, and next on my list is:

Garry Kitchen's Super Battletank War In The Gulf

LOL

Ok. got me thinking, what are some other obscenely long names for classic games... Might be hard to beat this one. :D

ok I guess the donkey kong country sequels qualify

Donkey Kong Country 2 Diddy's Kong Quest

Donkey Kong Country 3 Dixie Kong's Double Trouble

Super Mario World 2 Yoshi's Island

[tom]

How about his brother:

Dan Kitchen's Tomcat The F-14 Fighter Simulator (VCS)

[o.pwuaioc]

Every Japanese game ever, the Xenosaga series, The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II: Rise of the Witch King...

Also, Nintendo passed up on what could have been one of the longest names: Super Mario Advance 3: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

[j_factor]

A game I just recently acquired. Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner 2: Kaidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon

[Berserker]

[o.pwuaioc]

Leather Goddesses of Phobos 2: Gas Pump Girls Meet the Pulsating Inconvenience from Planet X!

Sounds like a bad porno, but then again, so do most game names.

[dendawg]

How about:
Leisure Suit Larry III: Passionate Patti in Pursuit of the Pulsating Pectorals?

[Wookie]

I always liked "Nord and Bert Couldn't Make Heads or Tails of It". The game and the title.

[Clownzilla]

Sounds like a bad porno, but then again, so do most game names.


Actually, it kind of was:)

[Wraith Storm]

How about:
Leisure Suit Larry III: Passionate Patti in Pursuit of the Pulsating Pectorals?

I jumped in this thread to mention Leisure Suit Larry III, but it appears dendawg has already taken care of that.

Alternatively, I will offer up King Missiles song "The Little Sandwich That Got a Guilt Complex Because He Was the Sole Survivor of a Horrible Bus Crash (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJkwcJlBAKw)"

The video game with the longest name ever released in English is probably "Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode Two," at 66 characters, not including spaces. The longest name for a video game in any language is "Simple DS Series Vol.14: The Jidousha Kyoushuujo DS: Gendoukitsuki Jidousha, Futsuu Jidou Nirin, Oogata Jidou Nirin, Futsuu Jidousha, Fusuu Jidousha Nishuu, Chuugata Jidousha, Oogata Jidousha, Oogata Jidousha Nishuu, Oogata Tokuchuu Jidousha, Kenbiki," at a whopping 219 characters (when written in Romaji, at least).

That game title was a joke by the developer. He doesn't refer to it by that name.

[j_factor]

[Kevincal]

This topic made me smile.

me too :)

[BetaWolf47]

Most of the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship games have ridiculously long titles. They're not classic though.
-Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2009: Stardust Accelerator
-Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2010: Reverse of Arcadia
-Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2011: Over the Nexus

Classic wise, there's A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia

[markusman64ds]

All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros.

[Zing]

Not "classic", but the industry's heavy use of subtitles became apparent to me with
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords

[Astrosmash]

Going out of my own collection and using the full titles on the cartridge labels (and hopefully avoiding repeats)...
Maze Craze: A Game of Cops 'n' Robbers (2600)
David Crane's A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia (NES)
Disney's Adventures in the Magic Kingdom (NES)
Jim Henson's Muppet Adventure: Chaos at the Carnival (NES)
Solstice: The Quest for the Staff of Demnos (NES)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Fall of the Foot Clan (GB)
Bubsy in: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind (GEN)
Eternal Champions: Challenge from the Dark Side (SCD)
Deja Vu I & II: The Casebooks of Ace Harding (GBC)

Seemingly any AD&D game would fit the bill as well.

[Aussie2B]

A game I just recently acquired. Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner 2: Kaidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon

Skimming my game collection list, I think that's the longest title in my collection too. I'm kind of surprised since I half expected it to be a Japanese release. I bet this title is actually longer than its Japanese equivalent since Atlus tacks on "Shin Megami Tensei" to every release related to the franchise, even when they're not a part of the main MegaTen line.

[Kim Possible]

NES
Jack Nicklaus Greatest 18 Holes of Major Championship Golf

didn't know about the similarly titled Fred Couples game!

[Cornelius]

I almost started this same thread after noticing how long Star Wars Rebel Assault II The Hidden Empire is. But it doesn't even rate in this thread!

[Robocop2]

"Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! What Did I Do To Deserve This?"

I know the PSP isn't a classic but the name is so long and ridiculous it needs to be here besides, the classic thing appears to have been thrown out a few posts back anyways.

It's sequel isnt really any better though
"Holy Invasion Of Privacy, Badman! 2: Time To Tighten Up Security!"

[M.Buster2184]

Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast.

[The 1 2 P]

Tom Clancy's Spinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow(Xbox)
Star Wars The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes(360)
Outlaw Golf: 9 More Holes of X-Mas(Xbox)

[BlastProcessing402]

Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast.

Of course that one was preceded by

Star Wars: Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight

which is almost as bad.

[wingzrow]

Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo Revival

[Compute]

Evander Holyfield's "Real Deal" Boxing.

[Cornelius]

Of course that one was preceded by

Star Wars: Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight

which is almost as bad.

If we go there, then we might as well add

Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy

[hellraiser]

(nes)
Teenage mutant ninja turtles 2 "the arcade game"

[NayusDante]

The Journeyman Project III: Legacy of Time
Missionforce Cyberstorm II: Corporate Wars

Mobile Suit Gundam Seed: Never Ending Tomorrow

[FieryReign]

How about shortest game name? D :ass:

There's also a strategy game called Z.

[Zing]

Good old Z. My friend and I used to play the game via null-modem link. We only had one CD so we would pass it back and forth to start up our games. Sometimes it wouldn't work and the game would quit with the message "Commander Zod shoots down pirates at dawn".

What a great game. It was non-stop action from the first moment of each match. We eventually stopped playing it, because it was too stressful.

[BlastProcessing402]

If we go there, then we might as well add

Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy

Do expansion packs count? Then we have

Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith: Companion Missions

[markusman64ds]

How about shortest game name? D :ass:

Don't forget X, the first game with Totaka's Song.

[kupomogli]

Many Gundam games have long names because almost every title starts with Kidou Senshi Gundam or Mobile Suit Gundam. Also the newer Castlevania games.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Gundam vs Zeta Gundam
Kidou Senshi Gundam Extreme VS: Full Boost
Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Together
Ogre Battle The March of the Black Queen

On the PSX version of Ogre Battle it has Ogre Battle Limited Edition, but then under that. It has Ogre Battle Saga Episode 5 The March of the Black Queen.

Castlevania Symphony of the Night
Castlevania Lords of Shadow: Mirror of Fate
Zoda's Revenge: Star Tropics 2

[alec006]

Hmmm B-17 Baaawwwwwmeeeerrrrr gets my vote. Thank you Intellivoice Voice Synthesis Module for making such a short name into a long one, gotta love 80's technology xP

Another, well any WWF game, that is if you use the whole company name, example, World Wrestling Federation Smackdown! Shut Your Mouth.
