The one game your poor parents got you that was absolute shit but you played it so you didnt seem ungrateful. What's her name?

>> No.2182597

If I was gifted shitty games it was my own fault because my parents only bought me what I asked for.

^ This.
Although one year they picked up the snes Batman Forever as a "bonus", think they got it in a bargain bin.
Also got Resident Evil Gaiden once and didn't ask for it. I was actually excited. "A portable RE adventure? SWEET JESUS"
Oh man was I ever let down.
Think I still have it and the box around somewhere. I can't be bothered to look for it, it's really not worth it.

I actually kind of liked this game as a kid, so I have some nostalgia goggles.

I got this one Christmas even though I asked for a Tiny Toons game, it turned out to be bretty gud.

Quest for camelot isn't that bad, for a linear adventure game it was capable enough. People keep trying to compare it to zelda and it looks really bad when you do that even though QfC is not open ended

I'm willing to admit that i havent played it since i was 8 and couldnt figure anything out. It was shit to me then it could be a fine game.

My dad knew I really liked horror movies and games and thought this would be a cool birthday present. He was really excited about giving me something I'd like, I mean he was really really happy about me having this. I didn't have many games, but this was clearly the worst of them all and I still kept at it. I played it over and over whenever he was around just to make him happy because my dad's the best. I ended up liking it a bit, mostly because of what it meant to me.

Also my mom threw a fit about him giving me a "horror game". Geeze mom, way to be a buzzkill.

My initial reaction was "th-thanks...", I was happy that grandma recognized my love of monsters but it seemed sucky. But this game really grows on you.

My dad got me Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego for NES

Complete with that encyclopedia book

I get he wanted to get me something educational, but I didn't even know my ABCs yet

Pretty sure he gave it away because I never saw it again growing up

Destination Earthstar for Nes. God I wanted to beat it so bad too, but it was broken to fuck on the side scroller parts.

Rescue Rangers Tiger Handheld, I still have it. My mother bought for my birthday with her disability pension, she told me "I know you like videogame so I bought you this one, so you'll not be the only one who can't play a single one".
It was crap but I played the shit out of it showing my mom my new records, I made one the day she died (around a year later) and that score is still intact.

Probably bait, but if you don't like REG and it's boxed, just sell it. It sells for more than most GBC games.

A Swedish game that was a sprite change of a game with a skating dinosaur called Baby T-Rex. Absolutely horrendous.
