@Eric Slattery, what kind of fucking drugs are you even on anyway? Silver Surfer was like Battletoads minus the ability to actually GIVE you a fucking fair chance to be good at this game! Furthermore, Konami and its Axelay and Salamander/Life Force games did what Silver Surfer did AND better WITHOUT being both mind numbingly tough like Battletoads AND being more unfair than being in a wrestling match with the special guest referee being a heel that is helping out another heel stable and then being legally able to beat the shit out of you and stripping you of your dignity and pride as an individual in your life.
Here is MY Top 25 shittiest NES/FDS games of all time. 25. Total Recall - NES 24. Kinnikuman Muscle Tag Match/M.U.S.C.L.E. - FDS/FDD/NES 23. Silver Surfer - NES 22. Breeder - NES 21. Bats and Terry/Batsu and Terry - FDS/FDD 20. Winter Games - FDS/FDD 19. Transformers: Kazu no Convoy/Transformers: Mystery of Convoy - FDS 18. Hokuto no Ken - FDS 17. The Black Bass - FDS 16. Athena - NES/FDS 15. The Lost World of Jenny - FDS 14. Friday the 13th - NES 13. Fester's Quest - NES 12. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - NES 11. Hydlide - NES 10. Conan - NES 9. Hana Moe Star (I think that is how it is spelled) - FDS 8. Spelunker - NES/FDS 7. Mirai Shinwa Jarvis - FDS 6. Deadly Towers - NES 5. Santa Claus no Takarabaro/Santa Claus' Toy Box - FDS/FDD 4. Takeshi no Chousenjou/Takeshi's Challenge - FDS 3. Hoshi o Miru Hito - FDS 2. Super Monkey Daibouken - FDS 1. Action 52 - NES All other arguments are now invalid.
I am sorry, but that game was never made as a full production game and I can name even worse games than that game, such as Little Hood or Dragon's Feet.
James Pyle Wait...................then who am I talking to right now?............................HELLLLLLLLLLLLP.......MOOOOOOOOOOOM, THERE IS A GHOST ON RUclips WHO IS STALKING ME..................................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol....JK..JK
How can anybody dislike this video? The narrator is awesome, even if you DON'T agree with the list lol. Although I always thought Friday the 13th was pretty cool.
Second time visiting this video but I love it lol! Like I said a month or two ago great pics. These are all atrocious and I think 'hell' would have to mean being subjected to playing these games day in and day out lol
A+ for narration and presentation! I've played and read about some games I thought were worse than some on this list, but this one's pretty solid. What about N.A.R.C. and Caveman Games?
Anyone else besides me wish this up loader would have made this list base on his own opinions for games instead of basing it's list off the avgn opinions
+VideoTape it means there are some PS4 games that have some really s***** Graphics as well I mean come on man it was Nintendo you expect 1985 Nintendo video games that have 2016 graphics I mean come on
***** Actually if you ignore the bird shit ('cause that's pretty nasty) I think Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde looks pretty darn good. It's the opposite of SMB3, a game that looks very bland and empty. Not an insult, that's just how it is. I can't say which one looks better... I like both.
Silver Surfer isn't a bad game. Yes it's difficult, and very frustrating, but it's not impossible if you show some patience and learn the layouts of each stage. But if your emotionally weak, and lack patience, then I guess I understand why it may seem bad. They shoulda at least maybe given a health bar, that alone woulda helped alot. This games a blast once you get the hang of it :) just my opinion though
Silver Surfer is shitty because its super hard. The one thing Silver Surfer has going for itself, is the music. The music in this game is dope as fuck.
Back in the day i coaxed my little cousin into buying hydlide because the box art was so deceiving and I thought it was good like dragon warrior ,when we got home from toys r us we popped it in immediately and almost stared crying,his dad bought him final fantasy the next day because he was still so upset.
No, it's one of my favorite NES games. I still have it. I love the music and have no problems with both the gameplay and map direction. I never get lost. It's just a hard game, and I like that.
Yeah I love the music to Friday the 13th as well. Actually this reminds me. I made an Android ringtone / notification pack. They are .ogg files that you copy to your Android phone, so that you have all of the NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis sounds. I'm going to add the Friday the 14th music later tonight. My website is www.mightymo.net if anyone wants the pack.
Super Pitfall... the first game I got, along with the console and SMB back in 87. Took me and my brother almost a year to finally finish, as NO magazines bothered to publish a map of the game- and for good reason! Later on, I'd end up getting X-Men, Athena, and quite a few other shame-worthy games-- and spend WEEKS happily playing each. Good times!
Darrick King 9 of the ten games were AVGN episodes with the comments being made the same in the same order. this dude blatantly ripped off the avgn episodes
If I correctly understand Silver Surfer, you don't actually have to get hit to die. You die if something hits your surfboard. And in the side view levels, the Silver Surfer's hitbox is a rectangle that completely contains both him and his surfboard, so he can die from something that touches neither him nor his surfboard.
Putting Hydlide on these lists is never really fair. For 1984, it's a GREAT game....but it wasn't ported to the NES in the US until 1989, when its competition was vastly more advanced. As LordKat put it, if Quake 1 came out the same year as Unreal Tournament, Metroid Prime, and Halo, it'd look pretty awful by comparison.
Mike MacDee, sarcasm and wit do not suit you and you should also not quit your day job. You should also leave stand up comedy to the professionals, of which you clearly are not one in your life, with the lone exception of being a professional nut job, anyway. Furthermore, anyone that is worth their salt knows that The Tower of Druaga is the REAL game that began the whole RPG thing to be set into motion anyway.
Two of them are ports. Conan is the port of the C64 game called Myth: History in the Making. Hydlide came out on the Japanese computers such as the MSX and MSX2. The music on the NES version came from Hydlide 2.
JustinEvitable80 WWF WrestleMania is awful. One dimensional, computer cheats with its back elbows and super difficult AI except for Ted Dibiase seems to be the game's pushover.
There are rumors that Action 52 wasn't really a serious attempt at game design at all, but a scam designed to bilk money out of investors. It would explain a whole lot if it were true.
Games like "Don't Buy This" for the ZX Spectrum are considered to be "joke games" since the developers themselves disowned the game. However games like Cassette 50 and Action 52 are indeed nothing but scams whose sole purpose was to rip people off.
Yeah. It's possible that it was to rip off investors, but why do that when you, and your investors, can just rip off unsuspecting consumers? Who wants to design a good game that jumpstarts a legitimate company when they can just do a fly-by-night scam? They're soooo lucky the internet wasn't prevalent back then.
Dr.Beef And indeed, once you realize how games such as Day One Garry's Incident and Guise of the Wolf somehow end up being sold on Steam with only the most ambiguous explanation as to how they even got past Greenlight and taking into account the fake reviews on Metacritic, one would actually be astonished that there are people who actually make cheap cash-in games and ironically exploit the internet as an alternative to finding investors crazy enough to actually promote such crap.
Friday the 13th is actually one of my favorite NES games, right beside Blaster Master, Batman, Double Dragon II, and Faxanadu among others. People just don´t understand it, but Friday the 13th is a GREAT GAME!
I made a humongous mistake in buying Super Pitfall thinking it would be as good as its Atari 2600 predecessor, Pitfall. I certainly learned a lesson that day. But i feel sorry for those poor souls who actually ponied up $200 for an Action 52 game. Critics be damned, that was a funny video.
I think the point of Action 52 was to try and make the Cheetamen game look good even though it sucked, by getting people to compare it to a bunch of shitty games that were supposedly legit games.
Pioneer Mega-LD Don't get why E.T. on the 2600 is the worst game ever made. Sure it was pretty bad but at least compared to Action 52, Shaq-Fu, and Superman 64, it was at least somewhat playable.
Dude by the way... holy shit. You have Hylide on here... I have been trying to remember what this was for seriously, AGES. I used to play this game when I was like 4-5. I had no idea what it was called either. I remember never beating it, never knowing what the hell was going on and I just remember sucking at it for hours until I found Super Mario Bros for the Snes... dafuq great find. You truly dug deep.
Putting Hydlide ahead of the Silver Surfer is an insult to the game. While it wasn't a masterpiece by any means, it was at least playable and beatable.
Lmfao! I love this dude's voice(even tho he sounds like he's got cottonballs in his mouf). This guy seriously cracks me up, laughed my ass off during the video because i can totally relate. Good top 10 pick of worst NES games, although i'm a little dissapointed that "Dash Galaxy in the Alien Asylum" wasn't among them, lol!
From a budget perspective, I can see why they went with top down for the Uncanny X-Men game. I would have preferred a Double Dragon or TMNT style beat-em up, but well animations cost money and time to perfect. Top down games are some of the easiest to produce. Even a top down shmup for the X-Men would have been okay to better. Always moving forward, Cyclops shooting forward, Iceman freezing, Storm shooting whirlwinds, Wolverine having a short range weapon, but getting health back. And uh Nightcrawler? Uh give him a gun or just shoot smoke its his new Mutant power! Its possible to have health, even if other shmups were 1 hit = death. Just make the bullets destroy on impact and lose player health. Of course a top down shmup would have possibly fallen into the Silver Surfer level of difficulty. Time + Money = the game that gets released.
Imagineering deserves the most hate than LJN. Imagineering's game are the worst games in existence. For example, Swamp Thing on the NES got a guilty verdict because it was by Imagineering. That company is the one to blame, not LJN. LJN may have a lot of licensing issues when it comes to the quality of their video games, but Imagineering is the company that tops LJN for the worst video game company ever. Other than that, great list.
Awesome video. Very Awesome. I solved about 6 of those games. So getting to see the endings of all the other ones shown was great! By the way, you didn't beat Ghosts N Goblins....LOL.
Love the list, but no Back to the Future 2 & 3? Only game I can remember where getting across to certain areas required jumping into a pit to die and have the vehicle bring you back to hover across it because there was no other way to get there.
Impossible Mission II Needs some consideration. You have no weapon, No mission of objective in the game. I guess that is stated in the title. You are Tom Cruise in a gymnastics leotard running and doing flips over enemies to avoid them. This game should be set on fire!
You could've just let me make the intros, I would've been fine with that, I have some badass programs like Adobe After Effects and Sony Vegas Pro. But send me those intros anyway and I'll check them out. As for the music, sure, put something in and we'll see how it goes.
Between licensed and unlicensed titles, there were over 800 games on the NES, including many, MANY garbage games, yet you didn't review a single game that the Angry Nerd didn't already do. I doubt this was coincidence.
I don't know why everyone keeps talking about Silver Surfer as "one of the worst games EVAAR!". Seriously, it isn't as incredibly horrible as you make it sound like. Yes, it has some noticeable flaws, but it is definitely a hell of a lot better than real crap like Conan and E.T. Silver Surfer at least has a very solid foundation, and the only things that really need be fixed are these ones: *shoot while you hold down the B button *make it easier to tell the difference between the foreground and the background *make Silver Surfer's sprite smaller *allow Silver Surfer to increase his life energy Except for these points, Silver Surfer is basically the same kind of game as Gradius, just with different levels and a different powerup system.
Angry Video Game Rabbi
I hope your not offended when I say "you sound like Dracula"
Actually I just might take that as a compliment :)
supereldinho lol but chris is right u do sound like dracula :)
Logan Roberts BLEH!
@Eric Slattery, what kind of fucking drugs are you even on anyway? Silver Surfer was like Battletoads minus the ability to actually GIVE you a fucking fair chance to be good at this game! Furthermore, Konami and its Axelay and Salamander/Life Force games did what Silver Surfer did AND better WITHOUT being both mind numbingly tough like Battletoads AND being more unfair than being in a wrestling match with the special guest referee being a heel that is helping out another heel stable and then being legally able to beat the shit out of you and stripping you of your dignity and pride as an individual in your life.
I was thinking Roli from Counting Cars.
"Is Silver Surfer weeping for himself? ... Or for you?"
>XD
I want to hear you say "It's not a tumor"
your accent is really easy to catch and listen
it is nice for a new engllish learner like me
Is it just me, or does this guy kind of sound like Doctor Zoidberg?
That was my first thought too.
haha so true....oh yess.

I am sorry, but that game was never made as a full production game and I can name even worse games than that game, such as Little Hood or Dragon's Feet.
I rented Silver Surfer..then I committed suicide.
So how are you commenting...?
munsi0121 I was reborn as the Silver Surfer.
be careful dont touch the keyboa....too late
munsi0121 Haha :)
James Pyle Wait...................then who am I talking to right now?............................HELLLLLLLLLLLLP.......MOOOOOOOOOOOM, THERE IS A GHOST ON RUclips WHO IS STALKING ME..................................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol....JK..JK
Dude, your descriptions are absolutely hilarious! I loved every minute of this video!
i love how the production of these videos are so primitive, yet i love them
the last one with action 52 was damn funny. "it takes a diabolical mastermind to make a masterpiece of dis-functionality" laughed so hard on that one.
I kid you not it took me (off and on) nearly 15 years to beat Deadly Towers without cheats.
Dude, that's a lot of dedication. Even playing off-and-on, to keep plugging at it for that long is a feat.
If Action52 is on the list, shouldn't this be top 62 worst NES games
This guy is a riot... your tones of disappointment and sarcasm are well executed. Love it.
How can anybody dislike this video? The narrator is awesome, even if you DON'T agree with the list lol. Although I always thought Friday the 13th was pretty cool.
+Rick W same is kid back in 1992 it was my favorite game but for some reason my game keep on going missing WTF!
+Rick W why this video is disliked ?
because there are nearly none bad games on this list.
some of them are even really great games.
+lecorbak No.
*****
yes they are.
silver surfer for example is an excellent game with awesome musics.
+Rick W The narrator IS awesome indeed. I kept watching this just to hear all the stuff he'd say lol.
You have the most delightful accent, where are you from my fellow foreigner ?
+Bruce DaCynic I'm from Bosnia my good man, thank you for asking :)
I am sorry for Milosevic.
Second time visiting this video but I love it lol! Like I said a month or two ago great pics. These are all atrocious and I think 'hell' would have to mean being subjected to playing these games day in and day out lol
maybe go check out avgn then which is where he stole the list and script from. pathetic thief.
A+ for narration and presentation! I've played and read about some games I thought were worse than some on this list, but this one's pretty solid. What about N.A.R.C. and Caveman Games?
Use cheats for full power-ups and unlimited continues and you'll see the excellent game Silver Surfer nearly was. Oh, and autofire. Good god.
This was a really funny video. I liked all your jokes. It's tough coming up with 10 introductions to how a game could be so horrible.
Anyone else besides me wish this up loader would have made this list base on his own opinions for games instead of basing it's list off the avgn opinions
I love that he bashes the graphics, dude what do you expect it to look like a PS4, I mean "come on"
+Frank Laney What does that even mean? There are bad-looking NES games just like there are bad-looking PS4 games.
+VideoTape it means there are some PS4 games that have some really s***** Graphics as well I mean come on man it was Nintendo you expect 1985 Nintendo video games that have 2016 graphics I mean come on
*****
Actually if you ignore the bird shit ('cause that's pretty nasty) I think Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde looks pretty darn good. It's the opposite of SMB3, a game that looks very bland and empty. Not an insult, that's just how it is. I can't say which one looks better... I like both.
I have to agree, make a unique top 10 of your own opinion. Don't copy others
The BEST commentary I've ever heard. Thanks for taking me back. You Rock ! ! !
Silver Surfer isn't a bad game. Yes it's difficult, and very frustrating, but it's not impossible if you show some patience and learn the layouts of each stage. But if your emotionally weak, and lack patience, then I guess I understand why it may seem bad. They shoulda at least maybe given a health bar, that alone woulda helped alot. This games a blast once you get the hang of it :) just my opinion though
It's not surprising that those evil NES games were reviewed by The Angry Video Game Nerd.
Your commentary is PRICELESS!!!!!..thank you!
Your commentary is making me laugh til my gut hurts man lol. Outstanding video !!!
Only game that I actually liked on the list was actually Friday the 13th lol.
Yeah I rented it a few times
A tip: you can watch series at Flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies these days.
@Benicio Atlas yea, I've been using flixzone for since december myself =)
hydlide; the music alone is headache inducing
This video is the number one in the list of the top 10 "top 10 worst NES games" videos.
Silver Surfer is shitty because its super hard. The one thing Silver Surfer has going for itself, is the music. The music in this game is dope as fuck.
Back in the day i coaxed my little cousin into buying hydlide because the box art was so deceiving and I thought it was good like dragon warrior ,when we got home from toys r us we popped it in immediately and almost stared crying,his dad bought him final fantasy the next day because he was still so upset.
Am I the only one who liked Friday the 13th?
No, it's one of my favorite NES games. I still have it. I love the music and have no problems with both the gameplay and map direction. I never get lost. It's just a hard game, and I like that.
I'm glad that someone else enjoys the same games as me
I liked it.
You're not the only one. I kind of liked it too
Yeah I love the music to Friday the 13th as well. Actually this reminds me. I made an Android ringtone / notification pack. They are .ogg files that you copy to your Android phone, so that you have all of the NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis sounds. I'm going to add the Friday the 14th music later tonight. My website is www.mightymo.net if anyone wants the pack.
Oh come on, Friday the 13th wasn't that bad... map was wonky as hell, but I always thought it was fun.
he said Contra? that game is easy even without the cheat codes
Agree. I always enjoyed Friday the 13th.
Super Pitfall... the first game I got, along with the console and SMB back in 87. Took me and my brother almost a year to finally finish, as NO magazines bothered to publish a map of the game- and for good reason! Later on, I'd end up getting X-Men, Athena, and quite a few other shame-worthy games-- and spend WEEKS happily playing each. Good times!
Completely ripped off AVGN. The X-men is the exact same as AVGN. I'm usually pretty nice when commenting but this is sad.
LOL, how did he "completely" rip him off by using ONE game that was the same? Have you heard of people sharing opinions?
The lines he uses to describe the game are the exact same.
Darrick King 9 of the ten games were AVGN episodes with the comments being made the same in the same order. this dude blatantly ripped off the avgn episodes
Thanks for saying this so I didn't have to
Man nice video..i see alot of games i avoided anyways back in the day...good review on bad games
Funny narrative. Made me laugh a lot. Those are some crappy games for sure.
I think you have bright future as game commentator, your choice of words keep me entertained and laughing.
I really enjoyed your commentary. Super funny to listen to as I watched the gameplay.
Your commentary is COMEDY!
If I correctly understand Silver Surfer, you don't actually have to get hit to die. You die if something hits your surfboard. And in the side view levels, the Silver Surfer's hitbox is a rectangle that completely contains both him and his surfboard, so he can die from something that touches neither him nor his surfboard.

As LordKat put it, if Quake 1 came out the same year as Unreal Tournament, Metroid Prime, and Halo, it'd look pretty awful by comparison.
Exactly the sort of reasonable reply I expected from a stable, well-adjusted adult with an active social life. Well played, Sir.
Mike MacDee, sarcasm and wit do not suit you and you should also not quit your day job. You should also leave stand up comedy to the professionals, of which you clearly are not one in your life, with the lone exception of being a professional nut job, anyway. Furthermore, anyone that is worth their salt knows that The Tower of Druaga is the REAL game that began the whole RPG thing to be set into motion anyway.
This guy sounds like a bad Jackie Mason Impersonator
Two of them are ports.
Conan is the port of the C64 game called Myth: History in the Making.
Hydlide came out on the Japanese computers such as the MSX and MSX2. The music on the NES version came from Hydlide 2.
This was a great collection of obscure, shit games and the reviews were quite hilarious. Thanks from the USA for uploading.
Well put together video man, I enjoyed it.
Needs more:
Back To The Future
Karate Champ
Volleyball
WWF Wrestlemania (Not WWF Wrestlemania Challenge)
JustinEvitable80 WWF WrestleMania is awful. One dimensional, computer cheats with its back elbows and super difficult AI except for Ted Dibiase seems to be the game's pushover.
+J.A.L.M Productions like huey lewis and the news? lol
There are rumors that Action 52 wasn't really a serious attempt at game design at all, but a scam designed to bilk money out of investors. It would explain a whole lot if it were true.

Friday the 13th wasn't bad!
Thanks for uploading this review, its perfect in every way and entertaining at the same time!
Not sure why you get so many downvotes. This is a really amusing, entertaining video. Thanks :D
Friday the 13th is actually one of my favorite NES games, right beside Blaster Master, Batman, Double Dragon II, and Faxanadu among others.
People just don´t understand it, but Friday the 13th is a GREAT GAME!
"I mean just look at it... who are these scrawny blurred pieces of shit supposed to be"
hahahaha... that was awesome commentary my-man lol ;)
One of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time. Great personality you've got man!
Friday the 13th was actually ok dude.
I made a humongous mistake in buying Super Pitfall thinking it would be as good as its Atari 2600 predecessor, Pitfall. I certainly learned a lesson that day. But i feel sorry for those poor souls who actually ponied up $200 for an Action 52 game.
Critics be damned, that was a funny video.
Id rather play action 52 than listen to another second of your voice!
You must have a sad life then.
supereldinho looooool
Sparkle Barf mbhluujkjhkjuki
hahaha I'd rather play Silver Surfer instead :D
Don't care about his voice. His lame jokes and hackneyed list made me stop about 6 minutes in.
I think the point of Action 52 was to try and make the Cheetamen game look good even though it sucked, by getting people to compare it to a bunch of shitty games that were supposedly legit games.
Steve Rempel Actually I believe it was made to raise money for the upcoming Konix Multisystem, which was never released.
Steve Rempel who the fuck paid 200 dollars for that.......its basically 52 versions of et
Joe Smith E.T was somewhat playable...
Pioneer Mega-LD Don't get why E.T. on the 2600 is the worst game ever made. Sure it was pretty bad but at least compared to Action 52, Shaq-Fu, and Superman 64, it was at least somewhat playable.
E.T. Is probably one of the most disappointing video games of all time. And definitely the one with most publicity.
When annoyingly bad games are considered, I can't help but remember Sasa.
Jekyll and Hide graphics were cool, then that playability...
Dude by the way... holy shit. You have Hylide on here... I have been trying to remember what this was for seriously, AGES. I used to play this game when I was like 4-5. I had no idea what it was called either. I remember never beating it, never knowing what the hell was going on and I just remember sucking at it for hours until I found Super Mario Bros for the Snes... dafuq great find. You truly dug deep.
Putting Hydlide ahead of the Silver Surfer is an insult to the game. While it wasn't a masterpiece by any means, it was at least playable and beatable.
why so many dislikes? I laughed out loud multiple times watching this
What makes me happy about this is that I can more than safely say that there are NO Super Mario Bros. games on this list..
This video is hilarious! awesome job
Uh-uh-uh, you didn't say the magic word :P
(sees silver surfer and immediately thinks) DIFFICULT NOT BAD
That was a really good review. Well done man. those games look awful. Have you ever played Airwolf on the NES? That was horrendous ((
Angry Video Game Nerd reviewed all of these games.
They had the audacity to make a Cheetahman II
Lmfao! I love this dude's voice(even tho he sounds like he's got cottonballs in his mouf). This guy seriously cracks me up, laughed my ass off during the video because i can totally relate. Good top 10 pick of worst NES games, although i'm a little dissapointed that "Dash Galaxy in the Alien Asylum" wasn't among them, lol!
815 people want to dig into their belly button to find what fuzzy dirty secrets they have down there.
an acidic pit with snakes and crocs? the acid would kill them before you
Friday the 13th was great as soon as you figure out how to dodge fighting Jason in the houses, also never figured out the forest
" Is Silver Surfer weeping for himself or you?" XD
From a budget perspective, I can see why they went with top down for the Uncanny X-Men game. I would have preferred a Double Dragon or TMNT style beat-em up, but well animations cost money and time to perfect. Top down games are some of the easiest to produce.

Contra is the easiest NES game I have ever played.Ran through it right away no problems and this was back in the mid 80's as a kid
nicely done, pretty funny as well
Love the list, but no Back to the Future 2 & 3? Only game I can remember where getting across to certain areas required jumping into a pit to die and have the vehicle bring you back to hover across it because there was no other way to get there.
FYI check out the prototype for superman 64. There wasn't a single ring challenge; they made something else then they were told to butcher it!
Impossible Mission II Needs some consideration. You have no weapon, No mission of objective in the game. I guess that is stated in the title. You are Tom Cruise in a gymnastics leotard running and doing flips over enemies to avoid them. This game should be set on fire!
That's not bad for a list of games on the NES that many consider to be bad, but the quality for such a video does need to be fixed, though.
That Friday the 13th review was hilarious!
That was a great Silver Surfer review. I almost had to pause it I was laughing so hard.
Was this intended to be an Angry Video Game Nerd parody? Its' the same games and the same comments, only not as funny.
+Marshal Mathers I thought the same thing.
+Marshal Mathers I think this guy is Ubakistan's (or some other 3rd world country) shitty ripoff version of AVGN.
People are so tough behind their keyboards.
First off, no, I'm not Russian. I'm Bosnian, but that's really close.
Second, yeah, why not? A parody with some classic memes sounds good to me.
This guy sounds like the answering machine voice on the Harry Manback track of TOOL's "Aenima" album.
Hahahaha Yes!!!
I think it's pretty amazing that someone managed to convince their rabbi to narrate a youtube video about bad nintendo games.
lmao!!! Your delivery and tone are gold!! You sound like a computer. LOL!!!!!
As a kid I was so disappointed in "Super Pitfall." I played it to spite the programmers and designers. Really!
You could've just let me make the intros, I would've been fine with that, I have some badass programs like Adobe After Effects and Sony Vegas Pro. But send me those intros anyway and I'll check them out. As for the music, sure, put something in and we'll see how it goes.
Ljn every kids worst birthday and Christmas nightmare.
Between licensed and unlicensed titles, there were over 800 games on the NES, including many, MANY garbage games, yet you didn't review a single game that the Angry Nerd didn't already do. I doubt this was coincidence.
Treasure Master should be in every top 10 worst NES games list.
My left ear knows more than my right ear. Fix your sound.
For example: I played Karate Champ, and I hated, I put this on the garbage can
I don't know why everyone keeps talking about Silver Surfer as "one of the worst games EVAAR!".
Seriously, it isn't as incredibly horrible as you make it sound like.
Yes, it has some noticeable flaws, but it is definitely a hell of a lot better than real crap like Conan and E.T.
Silver Surfer at least has a very solid foundation, and the only things that really need be fixed are these ones:
*shoot while you hold down the B button
*make it easier to tell the difference between the foreground and the background
*make Silver Surfer's sprite smaller
*allow Silver Surfer to increase his life energy
Except for these points, Silver Surfer is basically the same kind of game as Gradius, just with different levels and a different powerup system.
There's actually a small group of gamers who absolutely love Friday the 13th. It's better on emulator, since you can save.
