Topic: VC Games you regret buying

I think I forgot to mention Monsters Lair, I thought it would be another Wonderboy game, not some shoot em up based on Wonderboy.

Try playing it on easy with Ryu or Ken and learn their moves.

For me, its still Bonk III. My first and last Bonk game. Its just an average no thrills platformer at best.

Blaster Master, Kid Icarus, Street Fighter II' Turbo: Hyper Fighting, and Ys: Book I & II.

sky kid.....what a crappy game that is

Super Mario World. I already had the GBA version, so there was no real reason for me to have bought it.

Breath of Fire II - It was back when RPGs on the VC were scarce, and I wanted one. I never really got into it.

Wrecking Crew - I have no idea at all why I would buy this over SMB2, or Zelda II. It was a long time ago though...

All my other purchases are what I wanted, and games I play all the time, unlike 7/8 of my WW games.
Except for The Last Ninja. But I think I already mentioned that in this thread.

@zezhyrule I think the controls in the SNES version aren't that great. The GBA designated the spin-jump to the R Button, while on the VC version makes it the A Button, which is really awkward to reach over to.

And it's how it was to begin with.

_{...It's also fun to play with friends...!}

Cruisin' USA- the graphics are subpar for an N64 game, and the game itself is too fast.
Mario Kart 64- the characters are 2D sprites, and the game is too fast
Zelda II- only diehard Zelda games would take to this game well

I think you wrote that wrong. My only problem with MK64 and why it sucks compared to the newer games is how boring and slow it feels.

In my experience, it's the opposite.

The first one I'll agree with (except for the too fast thing. Seriously, it's a racing game, it's supposed to be fast dude. Why the hell are you playing a racing game if you want it to be slow?), the second one you didn't even touch on its worst aspects (crappy track designs, rubberbanding a.i., Blue Shell), and the third one I disagree with. Zelda II a good game if you're persistant and keep an eye out for stuff that you may need to make things easier. It's hard and it's hardcore, but it's a rewarding game and good for anyone with enough patience to put up with its difficulty, not just Zelda fans, most of whom can't be arsed to put up with it.

Bonk III needs to come with a sticker that says "warning: This is the worst game in the entire series. Don't use it as your entry game." I implore you to try the First and Second games, they are much better than that boring old game.

I could kick you right now. Explain yourself plz.

did you just compare one of the worst aged games in Kid Icarus to one of the best aged games in Blaster Master?

He misread the title as 'VC Games You Don't Regret Buying'. I hope.

Blaster Master- I'm sorry, but I didn't like it all. I can't really find a real reason behind it, but it just isn't for me.
Kid Icarus- A game starts being not so fun when you can't even pass the fourth level.
Street Fighter II' Turbo: Hyper Fighting- Found Street Fighter Anniversary Collection for 3$, rendering this useless.
Ys: Book 1 & 2- Boring dungeons, lack of strategy and no clear sense of direction made it a waste of my money.

The first two I'll understand and subsequently forgive you for. In fact, I don't even like Kid Icarus and you got way farther than I ever did. It's just not my game, kinda like how Blaster Master ain't your game.

But Street Fighter 2 Turbo being made useless by The Anniversay Collection? You actually liked that game? I found it to be a complete waste of money. Its difficulty was completely unfair and unbeatable, and no matter what you set it on, it's still Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo, making the whole collection aspect pretty much a lie. The only thing that made it worth owning was the fact that it had Street Fighter 3: Third Strike on the same disc, but still, Street Fighter 3 ain't Street Fighter 2. The Super Nintendo versions of SF2 have always been the best. They tone down the difficulty to human levels, and they add a bunch of nice modes for when you're playing with friends, modes which I don't recall the Anniversary Collection including. It perplexes me to hear someone call the SNES version rendered obsolete by an arcade version.

And I'm still kicking for the Ys diss. No strategy? I can't think of any other action RPG that offers a high level of strategy while retaining a good, fast-paced combat system like Ys does. And the game tells you where to go. Just make sure you talk to people (and talk to them twice). So yeah, it does have a sense of direction. I won't argue over the dungeons. I found them fun, but then again, I was just expecting them to be an excuse to find some gold and kill some dudes, which they were. It's an action-RPG after all, not a Zelda game. What else do they need? If you just mean aesthetically boring, well, they get better as you go, but not a lot. They're just not as beautiful or vibrant as they could be, especially on the TG-CD version - everything looks kinda dull on that machine.

Mario Kart 64 and 1080 snowboarding were both pretty big dissappointments

Crusin' USA: Awful controls, not much choice from cars and the tracks were horrendous.

Volleyball: Game controls were pretty much non-existent.

1080 Snowboarding: Controls are terrible, tricks are hard to pull off and very hard to land "smoothly" after a jump. Courses are cluttered with all kinds of **** making it harder to navigate through the course without flipping out and "dieing."
