Intro drawing by Ashley Anderson: pressstarttobe...
After years of focusing on the best games for the NES, I decided to change gears and focus on lesser known cartridges that have, for one reason or another, generally escaped the public discussion and general nostalgia. This series highlights many of the relatively unknown, obscure, and unloved titles in the Nintendo Entertainment System's library. Some of these games are at best mediocre. Many are painfully bad, some of the worst NES games around. Most are hilarious for all the wrong reasons! Occasionally, OCCASIONALLY, a handful of them are actually good, borderline hidden gems.
While you won't find any of these on the NES Classic, some of these titles have managed to make their way onto the Nintendo Switch, so if you don't have an original Nintendo console or ROMs escape you ethically or technologically, there are several ways to play them.
Want more? Me too! Until then, lots of other articles where the pictures don't move and words have to be read can be found on my website: top100nesgames.com

i love this game!
Hush Peter, you're going to give away your secret identity!
That’s a really hard game not the best Spidy game big fan here but not one ☝️ respected Spidy game the X- Men nes game is Garbage 🗑️ any way new to your channel good morning ☀️ bro !🤘🤘
This game was a handheld game, but on the Game Gear, so you were right.
Ahhh ok
And on *Sega Master System*
Literally everyone I knew either owned this game or had rented it. Everyone played it, and most people thought it was the shit. Back in those days, we didn't know "bad" games existed, we were just happy to have a few games.
Damn, y’all were some real Spider fanatics!
Agreed!
I remember skipping out on this to play Spider-Man on Genesis. Looks like I made the right choice.
Yeah you did!
Understatement
The Nintendo NES was losing its appeal around the time the Genesis came out. I remember being in awe at how good the graphics were on Genesis ports of arcade games especially Strider and Ghouls N Ghosts.
@@user-or6yn8pm3c dont forget the SNES was out at the time as well
Yeah, the Genesis game is actually pretty fun! Was probably the best Spider-Man game on home consoles until Maximum Carnage was released.
"...with a Z, for extra street cred."
This game has some bangin music. The controls are rough to learn and the levels have lots of places where you get stuck. It was a pretty frustrating experience, though we got pretty good at it back in the day.
You’re better than me, I tried so hard and couldn’t get anywhere
The music is really the best part.
4:50 No, this isn't a "secret move" haha. This is wall ejection logic, part of the code that handles hit detection and physics. Because the player and enemies should not ever be allowed inside strategy geometry, there is built-in safeguards to eject an entity should subpixel boundries cross into it through to the other side of the geometry. That's what happened here, and that's why you found it difficult to reproduce. You triggered wall ejection logic.
Whoa cool!
@SatoshiMatrix1
Ahh, like the sonic zipping stage warp maneuver, or some of those SMB tricks.
Then my one question is, how tf were you legitimately supposed to get out of those pit where you cant jump high enough situations.
Fun review as always. Reminds me a little bit of the Wolverine game from around like 1991 that I wanted to play due to seeing it in WWF magazine ads... only to find out 15 years later the game was the shits.
Oooh yeah that’s a toss up for which is worse!
while many here will never know, these games were heavily marketed in the 90s in MARVEL COMIC BOOKS, so yeah, almost anyone who loved comics books in the 90s would see these ads while reading their favorite comic book.
Video games in general, at least from what I can remember. When I think back on it I remember Mortal Kombat advertisements the most but do recall some Spider-Man games being advertised like the Gameboy game. Then again I started collecting in like 1994.
That is true!
Being a big fan of Spidey I gave a chance to this game... Of course, the difficulty was really frustrating, specially in the Mysterio level with those pesky zombies... But everything changed when I accidentally discovered Spider-Man's secret move: The "Ichigeki Hissatsu" (named by me in honor of Ryo Sakazaki's Super move) When you hold down the punch button, Spidey will increase the power of his punch, practically obliterating any enemy that comes close to him. That made the rest of the game a really piece of cake for me... Love the good ol' Chunky-Spidey
He does!?! No way!!
@@BigOleWords Sure! You should try it. It needs a little timing, but the results (and sound) are really satisfying.
That double jump you did was you sticking to the bottom of the computer terminal thing in the background, then jumping off of it. Wasn't a special move. What they wanted you to do was web sling, then basically swing in a complete circle. Over the top. Not just on the bottom like a pendulum. It's dumb... i had this on game gear. Played the hell out of it.
Ohhhh that makes more sense!
@BigOleWords I mean, not really haha. Why would you think you could or should swing in a full circle?
Also, I love this about games of this era. A first time player would have no idea what to do - sometimes even with a manual. But someone who grew up with these bad games being in their 10-20 game collection will know the most obscure things about it because they spent years figuring out how the game's logic. Figuring out the game's logic is one of the best things about these old games.
I remember playing this game a little too much and somehow got the web slinging down. Of course I forgot all of that.
Jealous!
To be honest, the graphics fit perfectly for the game. Not as a insult disguised as a compliment, but the city scenes and the forest area really suit the music and atmosphere. It feels dirty, unusual and weird. Maybe like a rotten version of a place in the city that Spidey's familiar with, or parts that have been taken over by the stage's Sinister Six member. Probably (Definitely) looking into it too much, but I personally think the graphics are the best part of the game. No background is ever "super empty", and I like that it avoids that trap some NES games fall into.
Hmmm interesting take, I like it!
If you like this game's art style check out the Master System and Game Gear versions as those systems allow for more colors on screen.
@@thedrunkmonkshow Just checked it out, and the colors on MS/GG look quite nice!
Back in the day we could all tell it was a stinker of a game from screenshots in magazine. Word travelled fast to avoid this one. I had already played the Genesis version of Spider-Man with it's smooth swinging and fluid movement. No way would i pick up the obviously inferior product.
You were much wiser than I!
@@BigOleWords a broken clock is right twice a day. Missing out on this game was a minor win
Always liked the music in this game, it's one of those OSTs that stands out for the unique instrument sounds! Nowadays that we have programs that make it easy to make NES music, and have a lot of fancy techniques documented, I feel like a soundtrack like this one stand out. I also think of David Warhol, who rarely composed, but did a lot of work coding his own sound engine that translated MIDI to NES, and for transcribing/arranging other composers' songs onto that.
Anyway, this game actually looks awesome! I love the graphics, the music, animation, designs, just from looking at it... but it looks like it plays real weird and loose
This guy is a sex offender for touching a little girl. Don't support him
Spiderman. By LJN. A nes game no one played? Wow dude.
Wow indeed!
I don't even know how to salvage this game. Like, Time Lord just needed more content and better controls and it'd be passable, but this game needs to be redone from scratch. Even if you fixed the controls so it'd be more like, say, Shatterhand, you'd then have to completely change up the level and enemy design because otherwise you'd breeze through the game.
You’re absolutely correct, improving the controls and hit detection would make Spider-Man way way too easy
I had the Genesis Spidey game , but the only thing the NES game got going for it , that it looks like the 1960s Cartoon .
You'd almost think this was something that J Jonah Jameson funded and programmed to hurt Spidey's reputation. Give him a lousy video game. Sounds like ol' Pickle Puss. On the plus side, it is an accurate portrayal of how much it sucks to be Spider-Man.
Hahaha
Had this one. Thought it was cool back then
Lol those Rats in the air looking like “Donated Kidneys” 😅
Nailed it!
It’s got special place for me. My mother rented it for me when I was sick. Later I gotta it for Christmas!🤷🏻♂️🤟🏻🤣💯
There actually was a gameboy Spider Man game, released in 1990, The Amazing Spider Man, also published by LJN but developed by Rare.. I had it when I was a kid, and I remember it being pretty good, but that was like 30 years ago and kids are stupid, so maybe it was terrible and I just convinced myself it was good. Thanks for another great video!
It's an ok game overall. Nowhere near as bad as it's been made to be. But it has a BANGIN' soundtrack by David Wise, so that's almost worth the price of admission right there.
Oh cool, nice!
OK, I'll give the game a pass purely for that outstanding Pixel Art Hobgoblin!
It was one of our favourites back then.
The game is abysmal. It's a real shame LJN/Acclaim held the marvel license for Nintendo, considering their MO with licensed games was to subcontract developers for very tight budgets and with equally tight deadlines, which is why so many of their games (including some developed by the likes of Rare) were frequently so bad. The fact that this was released all the way in 1992 and Bits still managed to mess up the attack and jump buttons from what had by that point been a well-established NES convention for about 5-6 years is such a Bits thing to do. This is the same developer that gave us Terminator 2: Judgment Day (not T2: the Arcade Game, but the other one) for the Game Boy, SNES, and Mega Drive, which must rank among the least fun games on each platform it was released on.
The art in the cutscenes is quite good. It was actually lifted straight out of the comics. Some of them are pretty iconic panels, and it's cool to see them recreated as 8-bit art.
Yeah the cutscenes are far and away the best thing about this game
This game caused me to miss getting a Sega Genesis for Christmas. I had asked my grandparents for this game, then later asked my parents for a Genesis. Since my grandparents already bought this game, my dad decided not to get the Genesis. I had to wait another 8 months for my birthday for the Genesis. Thanks for nothing, Spider-Man!
Dude, that is a funny story!😅
I think he console cockblocked you!
Lol, amusing anecdote pal.
I LOATHE this game. Rented it back in the day. Couldn't get past the first level, so I was stuck with it all weekend. Never played it again, either, and I don't intend to. Laughin' Jokin' Numbnuts indeed.
That is the appropriate reaction
@Dorelaxen
IMHO, the only passable game they put out was Friday the 13th. But if you rented it on a weekend without a manual, good luck finding out wtf you were supposed to be doing.
Another NES game that is also on Game Gear.
I tried this one on NES not that long ago and got further than I ever did as a kid.... which was level 3. Haha!
The controls are tricky in this one.
did LJN publish the GG version too?
@@thecunninlynguist Flying Edge (Acclaim's Sega label) published the GG and Master System versions. So, kinda... cos LJN were owned by Acclaim too.
Level 3? That’s pretty solid!
@@BigOleWords I was pretty excited about completing the Sandman level! And, you can get out of that hole, it's just that the web swinging is garbage. But, there's a way to flip on top of that block and jump out.
James: "I dont know why everyone hates on LJN"
Also James: *rants about how terrible this game is the entire video*.
😆😆
(Im joking. The reason why everyone hates on them is solely the fault of James Rolfe.)
Well I was thinking more about Friday the 13th and Jaws, but yeah I guess i proved myself wrong there!
Funnily enough, the reason why I learned to hate LJN was because of Seanbaby. OG Seanbaby.
I still always name a ninja in Final Fantasy KIK!
Because of Seanbaby.
Where ya been? Been sad havent seen any new videos uploaded in awhile
Had to pause pretty much everything in my life for a new baby and a renovation I was tackling solo. I'll be back soon!
Magenta Spiderman! Oof.
The use of #a80020 NES pallet for spiderman is _rough_. #a80020 isn't red, but a dark magenta on every NTSC TV I have. YUV #f83800 would have been a much better choice. I can only guess that since this game was developed by Bits and they were located in London England, the game was optimized for the YUV of PAL TVs.
check out 'Spider-Man: Return of the Sinister Six color fix' rom hack. Numerous colour changes including Spidey being red (and better blue) and the villains having a healthier looking skin tone. :P
Cool!
Interesting…
I just discovered this channel today. Is there a full version of the song at the beginning of the video? It sounds like something B.B. King would have played.
It's from Mr Show with Bob and David and a sketch called "Jeepers Creepers".
I finally snagged this game. The hit detection drives me insane.
Nice! And also, not so nice!
Oof... what a take down! Your opinion is pretty fair, and probably shared by a lot of people. Not me though; between this game, Friday the 13th, and Jaws I actually liked some of the NES games published by LJN. 😅
We rented Sinister Six a few times when I was a kid, because I loved Spider-Man comics. At the start, opinions mirrored yours. But later I realized that there was actually a lot of nuance to the controls... if (and only if) you spent an obscene amount of time experimenting and learning how to make the best use of Spider-Man's moves. Web swinging in particular was really cool when you mastered it (that's how I escaped the rat pit) and someone else already talked about holding in your button to build powerful punches. Figuring out how to manage distances properly to fight successfully took time, but rushing through stages later was so rewarding. Maybe that's the good old "NES Stockholm Syndrome" talking though.
Anyway, thanks for the nostalgic blast from the past. Sorry (or maybe glad?) that you didn't spend enough time with the game to love it the way I do... 🤣
I mean that’s awesome you sank into it. I owned this game and gave it plenty of shots but just never could get the hang of it
I think THQ had worse Games then LJN but LJN did have some really Bad Games that should have been Awesome Like X Men. I think That's why LJN gets so much Hate Because they had Licenses for some Potentially awesome Games that were just Complete Turds. Well That and AVGN.
I have Never Seen Spiderman do a Jump Kick like that.
THQ was the real deal
I still own this and had fun playing and beating this back in the day.
Damn you must've been a wizard!
This was definitely one of the worst games I owned as a child. Nothing about it works well. However, the gap in quality between this and THE WORST - Heroes of the Lance - is high. Both are less fun than Sesame Street ABC • 123.
Hahah yes! Agreed on Heroes and the Sesame Street games
Unfortunately not only did i play this one, i bought it. Even though I KNEW the curse of the LJN Rainbow by then....i still bought it. Hated this one outside of the kinda weird moody music.
The music is it’s one string quality
Liar! JK, haha! I played this as a kid, not the worst game, but I preferred Maximum Carnage and Separation Anxiety on the SNES.
Carnage is 1000 times better!
Happy new year! Hope we see more from you in 2024 🎉
Soon!
This was one of my favorite childhood games!! The music was good but short, I thought a decent looking game myself, but FUUUCK that damn sandman trap, I was wondering if you would cover it, and you did!
Glad I wasn’t the only one!
Actually you can rotate 360 with spider web. You need to shhot web at cube, rotate and jump. But you still can land in wrong place
Ohhhhhhhhhh
yeah, this wasn't good. I played it back when new and thought the game was clunky as hell, the graphics looked drab as heck and Spidey is poorly drawn.
Agreed!
Ugh. I got this turd for Xmas as a 10 year old. Should've asked for Little Samson
Haha no way anyone knew to ask for Little Samson!
Thanks for the always great content -- maybe I missed it but where'd the top 100 website go?
I still the domain but something was up with the hosting. It’s on my list once my life settles a bit more :)
I would love to see an Atari related video. Like the 7800. Homebrews for the 7800 are really good.
I have one but can’t really get it to work unfortunately
Wait...Wait. Did he call Bad Dudes a BAD game?
The Sinister 💩as AVGN says!😸😸😸😸
I got that game for my 9th birthday. I didn't ask for it but I remember my mom said that the guy who sold it to her said it had good graphics. It was a terrible game. I never beat it.
That guy, salesman of the year right there!
The rats look like little fetuses. You were killed by a rampaging fetus! I guess life begins at conception after all.
I can see it!
I never played this game during the final days of the nes. Thank god I didn't. And you sir, have earned a like.
You didn’t miss much!
I love these videos. Thank you for doing these. By the way, you have a soothing voice that keeps the listener absorbed.
Hey thanks for saying that! Glad you like em :)
This game is playable but... not great. I beat it as a 9 year old so it's not too difficult. C+
Damn, ok nine year old you!
I know there is a game gear version. Did you find a new video type? Game gear to NES?
Haha I hope not!
This game blows. Like, it makes Wolverine look like an absolute masterpiece......still better than Xmen, though. Definitely in the 350-500 range of quality NES titles.
Man better than X-men but worse than Wolverine is rough territory!
Think Super Pitfall.
It's true, all us game devs are just biding our time until we can get back to our passion.
I knew it!
Hahaha, I have that game in my collection. 😍
AVGN took a nice, healthy shit all over this game early on. Great to see someone take a whack at it all these years later :D
I actually watched that bit after I finished this video. Hilarious that he also got stuck in Sandman’s stage and gave up!
Man that Spiderman sprite is not appealing what so ever. I hate the fact he's got a little nose on him.
hahaha
I beat this years ago and yeah it's pretty bad.
Lol I had this one as well! One of the few I still need on my quest to get what I had as a youngin’. Could never get out of the first stage!
We were kindred spirits!
3:46 when i was a kid i thought I'm missing something 😭 so it was my fault?
You are not alone!
I borrowed this and played this as a kid, it was rough…I really wanted to like it.
For sure, me too!
I know you played the hell out of this because you found the glitch @ 3:45…bought back memories when I first discovered it and it frustrated me to no end
Is that what happened?!
@@BigOleWords yes sir!
This was one of the last NES games I got for Christmas, before I got an SNES. I actually beat it eventually. It’s horrible though.
Damn, props to you!
@@BigOleWords It was pretty much the only non-Tecmo game I played for a full calendar year.
I think there was a Game Gear version of this, funnily enough.
Apparently!
The bad hit detection would have annoyed me enough to quit too probably
It’s infuriating
Yup, remember my cousin having this one, and getting about as far in it as in Hydlide.
Glad to know it was a bad game, and not just me being bad at it
You were better off with Hydlide!
@@BigOleWords I dunno, that looping music is pretty harsh in its own way!
I remember how mad I was when I rented this game over one weekend. Graphically one of the ugliest NES games. Terrible controls. Frustrating..
I grew up on this one! Soo frustrating! Anytime you hear complaints of hit detection look no further! The music though! Aways kinda creeped me out...been like 20 plus years...i remember feustrating platforming as well..another ive yet to finish..sand man i think is as far as ive gotten...
I play this games back then and have a hate love relationship. Love because its a Spiderman game...
Hate because of everything else?
@@BigOleWords yeah my younger self cant finished it because of some annoying things that older me forgot ..
Yeah I agree with you on the punches and kicks being off and frustrating to perform. I call it "klunky Nintendo", like for example the Megaman games, you toe, literally HAS to be on the edge of the cliff in order to make the next jump. That's 8bit for ya. Other than that this game is solid! 8/10 for me! And IMO this is the easiest Spider-Man game from 1992 through 2004
This is one of the few games I actually beat. Though the controls were so funky. I remember the change in level structure halfway through and how it got easier. Andni actually liked rhe Vulture boss fight. This game could have been good with a few tweeks.
No one played? I played the hell out of it as a kid even though it scared me greatly with its weird music and atmosphere. It was a terrible game with awful controls and hit detection yet there was something strangely appealing about the game and I played it a lot lol
It was so bad it was good I guess
I still have my childhood famiclone copy
Young me gave up on it after failing to get past stage 3. The music is still an absolute banger IMO, specially the second one. But yeah, the controls are just awful. Overall: 4/10
Hope all is well in your world my man! Revisiting all your old videos.
Hey thanks, you too! And awesome, I'll have new ones coming soon...
@@BigOleWords hell yeah man looking forward to it🤘🤘
I played this as a kid and actually grew to like it 😞…FML
Hey, different strokes!
"No one played" - The comments, game sales and hundreds of youtube vids state otherwise. There is even fanous LJN vids all festuring this.
Ah yes, I remember that pit in sandman lvl...😢
Glad I wasnt the only one traumatized by this at a young age!
This game looks terrible, but the exploding debris with physics are neat. That's pretty unusual for the 8bit era.
Nobody played this game because it was awful.
It twas! But sadly many folks have chimed it to say that they did play it.
Wtf?!?! Why ain't ya making videos? Wtf?!?!
Not so fast!
I rented it once and finished it, but that’s all this game is: a one time rental game.
You beat it as a rental! You’re a wizard!
@@BigOleWords It lasted the whole weekend. The problem is getting stuck in some parts and figure out how to get out.
I remember some of the bosses being annoying, I think specially electro that kept flying to the border of the screen being hard to reach.
The music was good… for the first two hours.
Almost everytime there's a "Games you've never played", I've had the "fortune" of playing them as a kid.
You poor bastard!
@@BigOleWords 😂😂😂
The game's title always bothered me. Sinister Six, but doesn't even have six songs.
I owned this. It's a blast. the sprites are too small and the controls are pretty sketchy. But it's also pretty awesome
🎙️🎼I just came here to...
CHECK THIS SH1T OUUUUUUUT... YEAHH!! 🎶🎶
This is the last title I added to my nes collection
Same!
I rented this game as a kid. I couldn't get past electro and had no idea what to do and it sucked so I just quit
"this game sucks my spider balls" - Spider-man (according to the avgn)
Bad Dudes was awesome. Don't know what you're talking about . . .
Growing up I owned this on the Game Gear and didn't even know there was an NES port until I discovered emulation. Out of the three platforms it was released for, the NES is hands down the most inferior version. The Game Gear version is practically the same as the Master System albeit less screen size and the game was originally designed for the SMS in European territories anyway. Maybe it's nostalgia talking but I actually like the game and see what Bits was going for but it's just dragged down several points by it's inconsistent hit detection, shoddy web slinging with unconventional combat controls, and some wild difficulty spikes mixed with confusing level layouts throughout the adventure. As far as the NES port there's weird slowdown at certain parts and I get that the NES has less colors to work with but some areas almost look like something for the ZX Spectrum with unnecessary monochrome color choices. David Whittaker's music isn't represented well on the NES either and better suits the PSG of the Master System/Game Gear.
Sounds like we got the raw deal on the NES!
So many games pissed me off back in the early 90s, this being one of them.
I'll never understand the "LGN was just a publisher" defense. Like, whether they were responsible for development or not does nothing to change the fact that seeing that "Rainbow of Death" was a sign that you're in for a bad time more often than not.
More often than not for sure, but some were ok at least…sorta.
Oh hey, this is one of those games no one played that I played. Yeah, this is not good, but you played what you had, and this had Spider-Man, so my sister and I played this quite a bit and got decent at it. We could regularly get to Hobgoblin, iirc. Figured out how to beat Sandman, Electro, Vulture, Mysterio but rarely got past the Goblin and always got destroyed by Doc Ock.
I hate revisiting this though; I *KNOW* you can do stuff with consistency because we used to, but f**k if I can get it to work nowadays. Every time I fire it up with an emulator I struggle so much to web-sling and do his jump kick, which is what I needed to destroy the bosses (I had no idea how effective dick-punches were, lol!). I'm legitimately blown away to hear this is from Bits since I associate them with _quality_ from later in the '90s. Warlocked on the Game Boy Color is a legitimate freakin' achievement (it's a full-blown, fully legit RTS with great graphics and an awesome soundtrack!) and RiQa for the N64 was shaping up to be a cool looking third-person stealthy action shooter (look it up) in the vein of Tomb Raider or Syphon Filter and Jet Force Gemini since it had a bit of that Euro/Western anime aesthetic going on (seriously, it never got released, but here's what it was looking like: ruclips.net/video/r4-PO-J4Neg/видео.html ). I can't believe the same devs behind those were behind THIS too now. Mind. Blown.
It's always cool to see a studio go from making kinda garbage to being amazing, and I mean, LJN got Rare to make Wizards & Warriors games which were also not great at all, and look what happened to them later in the '90s! Maybe there's like an LJN curse, except the _opposite_ of a curse where most of the devs behind so much of this dreck on the NES went on to be stupid successful on the N64 or whatever. Gonna have to poke around MobyGames or something and look into it now, lol.
That game boy game they made sounds really interesting!
Oh, this is one that I actually played back in the day. I recall faintly reaching the end once, legit at that... but it was in the 90s, so my memory may be a little hazy. I felt pretty lukewarm about this one. I didn't hate it, but it's more of a typical licensed game, rather than Duck Tales or Chip & Dale - meaning, it's very average at best, with some unnecessary annoyances.
Yeah very much in line with the licensed stereotype
It looks like in eastern hemisphere we had different games in rotation) Spiderman wasn't a rare title to meet in the shops. Though the quality of the game was doubtful, so few gamers spent time or money on that. I completed the game back in the day...I think gameplaywise its more or less ok, just a bit below average. Better than Last Action Hero😅
Oooof better than Last Action is a low bar!
Oh god that was certainly one of the games of all times.
I was a _massive_ Spider-Man fan and got this game thinking it'd be great (how could it not, it's Spider-Man!).
Boy was I wrong...
Same logic for young me as well!
LJN always ment ass, kinda stuff your well meaning Aunt would buy. Even before The Nerd made it common phrase.
Definitely a well meaning Aunt gift :)
