I worked at Radical Entertainment back in the mid-90s which produced both Bébé's Kids and Mountain Bike Rally (aka Cannondale Cup). I didn't work on Bébé's Kids, but I did play around with getting MBR to work with the LifeFitness Exertainment bikes, but didn't work on the game directly. There was a lot of pressure to get stuff out the door since we were often doing contract work. That didn't really lead to great games.

If I just bought games based on the publisher, MVP Football should’ve been a slam dunk (or touchdown?). But… then I played it for the book. The play controls are a mess- unintuitive at best.

Lester The Unlikely amusingly enough gets progressively "better" as you pass stages. Not because the game itself becomes good, but Lester actually has a character arc from being a total coward who runs from enemies to even standing upright and battling with a sword! Guess The Nerd didn't made it too far to see that coming!
@MxArgent Жыл бұрын
Honestly, the game tries to give Lester a character arc, and it tries to do so in a way that actually impacts the gameplay. Pretty high concept stuff - there's some thought put into the game's design, which is more than you can say for the overt shovelware and cheap licensed games.

I think Lester the Unlikely is kind of an under-appreciated game that is still not very good. It’s ambitious, it looks visually solid and there’s a surprising amount of character and depth to it that sadly doesn’t translate into a fun game. I mean, a platformer game where you start as a massive nerd who runs away from turtles and crabs and end up as a brave and confident hero is a really neat idea and it kinda predates a lot of indie games now that have similar sort of setups, but a cool concept doesn’t make a good game. I think the one star is a bit harsh but I can see why it has such a rating. Still, as a game itself it’s utterly unique and one of the more creative releases on the system

I really wanted the game at the time, but never got it. I’m glad for that. The terrible gameplay seems to be due to the limitations of the SNES. It could have been a great game on the following generation of consoles. If you want to play a good mountain bike game, try Downhill Domination on the PS2. It’s a bit dated, but decent.

The second and especially the third are really good, as for Street Combat... not one of the worst but it is not good

Ballz had 1 star? That's kind of crazy, I remember having fun with it.

When Fred Flintstone is running, it looks like he’s a puffy 1930’s/40’s dictator.

My parents only ever got me 7 or so SNES games as a kid and Jammit and Lester the Unlikely were two of them. Jammit is definitely not a 1 star. That game was so fun when I was a kid. Lots of interesting game types, my brother and I played this together all the time. The single player mode is a blast too. The cheesy dialogue is a nice touch too. Lester the Unlikely is pretty horrible. Terrible controls and incredibly hard game. I never got past the village part.

The Flintstones deserves 5 stars for holding a special place in my heart.

I really enjoyed Space Ace. Maybe it's because of nostalgic reasons, but I have fond memories of that game. And loved seeing the animations of me dying 🤣
