Ghosts N' Goblins. I'm so glad I'm not a hot-head. This game was harder than Super Ghouls N' Ghosts!

Ghosts N Goblins is a really hard game. I think StarTropics may be a regrettable purchase for me. I say this because I just don't think I'm as great at those really hard games anymore like I was used to as a kid. I think I got as far as the third dungeon. I will try it again sometime though.

I take back what I said about Super Mario Kart. While the controls are a bit off, it's still a very fun game.

Only VC game I regret getting is River City Rampage, only because I can never find anyone to play it with. Most of the games I've bought are either ones I had when I was younger or games I really wanted to try but couldn't. So far my track record has been pretty good.

EDIT: Actually, scratch that. ComixZone and Blaster Master turned out to be duds for me.

Ok, as of now my regrets are:

Sonic Chaos- I got it for nostalgia reasons, and it hasn't aged very well. :|
Cruisin' USA- the graphics are subpar and the game goes too fast
Mario Kart 64- it'd be better if they'd waited until after Super Mario 64
Zelda II- very hard

I kind of regret Legend Of Zelda. It's fun, but I ended up getting stuck and I haven't played much since.

This is a Kid Icarus Wiki I created in late October. It has developed a lot in that time, but it still has a lot of room to grow. Any help you could provide (e.g. fixing typos) would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like someone never played the originals.

They Probably didn't. Still, it relies too much on memorization, IMO.

Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures is starting to feel like a regretted download. It has too many small enemies that are hard to kill and that can get frustrating.

I don't think Hank done it this way.

Okay, I have a lot...
Balloon Fight (NES), Galaga (NES), Pac-Man (NES) - There's almost no content, really
Kirby's Adventure (NES), F-Zero X (N64) - Just not my thing, though I might give Kirby another chance
Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Stars (SNES) - Too boring
Mario Kart 64 (N64) - The tracks suck, the items REALLY suck, and the steering is just ***! Worst MK ever.

The only VC game I regret buying is, surprisingly, Star Fox 64. I haven't played it once!

Back in the N64 days, I played it a little and I liked it but it wasn't my favourite game. I liked it for it's silly quotes rather than gameplay since I'm not really into shooters. When it came out for the VC I thought "omg Starfox 64!" and I bought it right away. Then I realized I had no interest in actually playing it.

The contents of this thread is precisely the reason I am hesitant to make VC purchases and only own 3 VC games. :P

It's better to regret a game that cost you $10 or less than to regret a $50 retail game.

When I say I regret Star Fox 64, I'm using strong language. I don`t lose sleep over it. I've actually decided to buy more VC games to bulk up my collection. Support the Virtual Console and buy more games!

Well, I'm no longer regretting Zelda II now that I've gotten help from a walkthrough. It's just hard getting started is all.

IMO, the old Castlevania games were MUCH harder than Zelda II. I actually managed to beat it, as opposed to Castlevania III.

On topic- I didn't really care for Breath of Fire 2 much. I don't know why, because I love RPGs and all, but it really just didn't appeal to me. Maybe it was the story (or maybe I set my standards impossibly high, IDK). Either way, I'm kind of regretting it now. Also, I found Kirby 64 a bit... I don't know... shallow. It was okay, just nothing special.

@STB If anything, Kirby's Adventure is the one game I'm really lucky I chose. See, I found some Pepsi caps at a football game last year while Pepsi was doing their Rock Band promotion, and I was deciding between two games to buy- SMB 3 and Kirby, as I had 500 points. Well, I went with Kirby as I felt like I needed to play it after previously owning Nightmare in Dream Land. I'm very glad I did so, because KA is now my favorite game of all time and SMB 3 doesn't interest me whatsoever (my brother got it with the internet channel refund).

I kind of regret getting legend of zelda orcania of time. Don't get me wrong it's a very good game, I just like the more recent 2D zelda games. I also regret buying Donkey Kong Country 2 except this time it was my fault since I bought the gameboy advance version after I bought the VC version and now I only play the GBA version because I can play it more often.
