NES: Time Lord (I haven't actually played it, but I do own it, and watched a video review and it looks terrrrible)
SNES: No bad games. Killer Instinct would probably be the worst, but it's certainly not a bad game.
N64: Hmmm... either Quest 64 or BioFreaks. I don't think either of those are particularly bad either.
GC: Star Fox Adventures. Because I never gave it a chance.
3DO: Alone in the Dark or D&D: Slayer (I own several games that I haven't played, though, so I might own worse games)
GBA: Super Mario Bros. Advance (SM2). I didn't like the added voice acting, and it's in direct competition against FFI&II:Dawn of Souls
XBox: GTA: San Andreas. Stupid crappy broken port. The controls suck and the cut scenes are FUBAR.
Wii: Klonoa (it's okay, but not great, imo)
** VC: Ninja Gaiden Arcade (I accidentally bought the wrong version because it was linked on the front page of Wii Shop) --
** WW: Bit.Trip Core. Meh.

In this screen you can set the respond rate from 1 to 8. The slowness you experienced is probably from having your respond rate at 1 (default). Set it to 8 (using left/right) and battle dialogues will go a lot faster.

Worst I've owned, or worst I've played?
I got a huge collection of games I need to play.
NES: Terminator 2 or Operation Wolf (both from a random ebay lot years ago. OW might have been okay, but playing with the controller is terrible (as expected with a gun game), but the design of the Zapper itself makes it uncomfortable. The only way NoA was going to get $5 from me is if they added Zapper emulation to VC, and I hear they didn't (seriously Nintendo, with the pointer capabilities of the Wii, Zapper support should've been trivial to add).) Oh, now I think I got Metal Mech from there. But I'm sure I got a couple good games with those.
Maybe King's Knight, but I guess I can't complain for a game I recall getting for free. (although the free-used-game-offers from GameStop netted me a Space Megaforce cart. I imagine it'd now be worth something, but I'm keeping it. )
SNES: Maybe Super Soccer or Play Action Football, because I don't really like normal sports games. Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt (which wasn't a bad game, except it was hard, with no passwords and a tendency to randomly reset itself).
N64: Haven't played as much, maybe Aidyn Chronicles or Gex 3 (would be a better game if I could make him shut up).
GB: The worse game I owned was Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt. It's a bad GB port of a bad NES port of a decent SNES game.
(I had Yogi Bear as a kid, and it's another game I hear ripped on. It actually wasn't a bad game, just horribly generic.)
GBC: Pong: The Next Level. I hear the PS1/PC counterpart had tons of variations. I think the GBC can handle more than three levels, and why does Pong require a GBC anyways? Also, why is less than an eighth of the ROM space used? They should've used a cheaper chip and dropped the price accordingly.
I forgot I also have Commander Keen. Disappointed by it, and it cost me $2 in GameStop's clearance sale.
GBA: I suppose if I'd have to pick on one, maybe Lufia. I played it longer than the GBC game, but it still didn't live up to the SNES games. Slowdown, slow-paced. Pretty sure I couldn't set the monsters' AI to not waste their powerful moves, lacking in MP items.
I also choose Mario Party Advance for false advertising.
PS1 and PS2 I haven't played enough of my library to pick out a winner.
DS: Master of the Monster Lair is probably topping what I've played so far (it starts out fun, but starts to get tedious).
Though I hear Lunar DS will probably match is, maybe Children of Mana (as I hear the Mana series has really been dragged through the mud in recent years. I'd believe it after playing Dawn of Mana for like 10 minutes. Sorry, Square-Enix, I like my action-RPGs to contain action AND RPG.)

(I did buy Maka-maka and Hoshi wo Miru-hito, but I guess those shouldn't count because they were intentionally bad purchases. )

Keke, this was fun! I try not to buy or accept stinker games, but since I never sell games, I'm stuck with them and their memories!

NES: Ren & Stimpy: Buckaroo$ & Back to the Future. Ren & Stimpy was a Christmas gift which I didn't want, and even though I love the Back to the Future moves to death, the game is terrible. Thankfully the game was only a second-hand gift and was only $5 or so.
SNES: My SNES collection is fairly "spotless", but if I had to pick one, I'd probably say Killer Instinct, since I'm not a huge fighter fan and this was more of a $10 curiosity. I'm sure the arcade game was way better.
GB: Surprisingly, my newest addition: Castlevania The Adventure. I've never played it, but it looked lonely (it and a GBC Yu-Gi-Oh game) at a craft/thrift show for $2 so I decided to give it a good home. I've heard it's pretty bad, though.
GBC: I don't have too many, but easily Donkey Kong Country. Still a good game for what it is, but between Donkey Kong Land (great for a Game Boy game and my first GB game) and DKC for the GBA, the GBC version is....ehhh....
GBA: Gundam Battle Assault, though I am a fan of Gundam fighting games, this was easily one Gundam game I could have skipped. It doesn't even save anything, I think it has passwords...which doesn't save much of anything. o_o
GCN: Tough call, really. The closest I have to a stinker is probably Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, since if I ever open it someday, I'll have to play it alone. I don't think I need to explain that one.
PS1: Oh boy, easily Dragonball Z: Ultimate Battle 22. A prime example of the height of it's popularity, my interest, and at the time wanting to own all the games. I think I opened my copy intending to play, but after seeing a friend's copy in action.....yeah. My second pick: Surprise! Dragonball GT Final Bout. In my defense, I bought the reprint for $15 or so as opposed to the $60-$100 eBay era of the original printing. But that doesn't make up for the fact that I've only played it once, either. >_>
PS2: Oh boy, State of Emergency. You guessed it, a gift I didn't want. This was after the "ZOMG GTAIII ROCKSTAR ANY GAME THEY MAKE WILL BE AWESOME". Somehow my mom caught wind of SoA and it's impending "it should be good because of GTAIII" and I got it for an Easter present I think. Yeahhhh.....I maybe got halfway through the game during years worth of occasionally popping it back in just to remember what it's like.
PS3: I don't have the system yet, and I want to buy The Last Rebellion because I'm a NIS America whore. But this game is apparently not so great, so I'll put it here if I actually do buy it someday.
360: I have very few 360 games, and though I love cheesy games involving boobs, it's safe to say Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 based on principal alone. Still awesome....in its own way. But yeah....I don't need to explain.
Wii: Gotta go with The Conduit since nothing else comes close. Good for a Wii FPS experience, but I only chose this because after playing 2-3 hours and getting stuck at a horribly difficult and frustrating part, I dropped it like a rock a year ago. I do plan to restart sometime soon and give it a second chance.
PSP: My collection is laughable for the fact that I've still only played 2 games so far, Dissidia and Mega Man X Maverick Hunter. I suppose I really can't pick a game, really, even though I cheated for my PS3 games.
DS: Um.....also a sad collection since I've barely played any of them as well. I'll go with Children of Mana since I haven't heard good things and I was able to stop myself from getting the later Mana DS release.

I think that's it for game systems. >_>

Super Mario Land - Overrated, with poorly designed and bland levels, topping it off with ridiculously easy gameplay. Yet Wario's Castle was fantastic and definitly pumped out some challenge. The graphics were nice, I loved the World Map and the bosses were mildy fun

You mean Super Mario Land 2? Wario wasn't in Super Mario Land.

PS1: Q*Bert (I have a feeling Sean Aaron will chime at some point and once again try to convince me that it's not horrible. lol)
GB/GBC: Tons, but I'd have to put Conker's Pocket Tales and A Bug's Life on the top of the heap.
GC: Mario Party 5
GBA: Classic NES Series: Bomberman
PS2: Worms Forts: Open Siege
DS: Pac-Pix- 'Twas fun at first, but it got real monotonous and boring by the 2nd book. Not truly awful, but easily the worst game I played on the system.
PSP: SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo is my least favorite, but like my DS, I haven't played any truly awful games on it yet.
Wii: Sonic Unleashed, Red Steel (tie)
VC: Toejam & Earl, Ninja Commando (tie)
360: Dead Rising- I was really looking forward to this one, but I was majorly disappointed. It was repetitive, and whenever I died or loaded a file, I started off at that closet in the beginning every time. Really Frustrating.

Atari 2600 - Double Dragon (Who the hell thought porting Double dragon to the 2600 was a good idea!?)
Atari 7800 - Karateka
NES - Dragon Warrior
Super NES - Final Fight (Just too much stuff missing from this version. But I'm sure there are worse SNES games.)
Genesis - Super Thunder Blade
Playstation - South Park
Sega Saturn - Battle Arena Toshinden Remix (Why was this game so popular on the Playstation?)
Nintendo 64 - Hexen (I did enjoy playing this game w/ friends but its still the worse N64 game I remember playing.)
Gamecube - Shadow the Hedghog (I never liked Shadow to begin with, but this game really made me hate him.)
PS2 - Some Star Trek FPS game, can't remember the name.
Xbox - Ninja Gaiden (Haven't played alot of Xbox games, but out of the ones I have played, this was the one I enjoyed the least.)
Wii - Mario & Sonic at the Olimpic games
Xbox 360 - Lost Planet (Sonic '06 may have been the worst but I only played the demo.)
Gameboy - Double Dragon III
GameGear - Sonic Blast
GBC - Turok 2
GBA - Sonic the hedghog Genesis (Really, really crappy port.)
PSP - Death Jr.

ugh, that was alot of typing.

@Dezner What part of the Conduit were u stuck on? I made it through pretty much flawlessly.

Umm....I was climbing some stairs to go into a building....statue inside of Lincoln maybe? All I remember was lots of portals and aliens EVERYWHERE. The guns I had for the checkpoint weren't helping at all either.

Ahh I remember. Use grenades wisely and aim for the portals before taking on most the soldiers directly. Headshots help alot too...

I forgot about Donkey Kong Land 1.
The one major problem I had is that the graphics were actually too detailed. It was hard to see on an original green GB.
Luckily, once they released this interactive tech demo, they could simplify the graphics and make some playable sequels.

Ren & Stimpy: Fire Dogs for SNES is probably a terrible game. I saw it in a collectors store, and felt I had to buy it, even though I normally only collect games I actually want to play.
(or maybe the time I passed up getting Stadium Events for $9 in a GameStop, made me feel I should buy any rare games I find, that are within my budget.)
(R&S:FD was a rental-exclusive game, for those wondering why it's rare.)

NES: Xevious
SNES: Mighty Max (yuck)
N64: Body Harvest. The game was actually quite entertaining, but compared to my other n64 games it just didn't fare too well.
Gamecube: Resident Evil Zero.
Wii: Wii Sports

You_from_the_Future

I have a very bad history of buying really terrible fighting games. Dragonball Z Ultimate Battle 22 for ps1 is one of the most horrendous fighting games I have ever played. I can't believe I sucked myself into buying a barely functional game with sprites lower than snes quality on the Playstation. I also can't believe I downloaded Clayfighter from the Virtual Console...
