Top 10 Video Game Fails

[@galenmarek4528]

People at my school say "Nintendo sucks" or "Who plays Nintendo?". When in reality, if it weren't for Nintendo, video games would be a thing of the past.

[@cmb9173]

Screw HypeStation 27 or TrashBox None, Nintendo made the best games!

[@MasterChief02571]

Michael Schmid and there's your opinion(notice how its YOUR OPINION)

[@cmb9173]

MasterChief02571 I didn't say anything else.

[@galenmarek4528]

MasterChief02571 Is there something wrong with that? His opinion?

[@agnosobosovo9775]

Pretty much true. If it weren't for Nintendo, there might not have been a PlayStation because of the completion in demand.

I would like to see 3DO's marketing campaign as one of the top video game fails, as they marketed their console as the "ultimate gaming experience", and as we know, almost all the games for the system were crap. And all that for a pricetag of 700 USD...

[@beejor]

I'd agree, but I think the fail was more around their business model. The pricetag was because there were no license or SDK fees for developers, so 3DO couldn't subsidize the system. Kinda like smartphones costing $600 unless you're on a contract. While a huge developer incentive, no gamers (retail price) meant no developers, meant rushed in-house titles. The ironic part is that founder Trip Hawkins is a Harvard grad who majored in Business Strategy.

[@ChrisTomson]

I was bought a PS Vita for my birthday, and I really enjoy playing it. BUT with its lacklustre library (even if the current titles on the market are great) and the high memory card price tag, it's no wonder it's failing. It seems like Sony are starting to give up on it as well. Rather than treating it like a console in its own right, it feels like they're trying to flog it as an overpriced peripheral for the PS4. At least Nintendo are still trying with the Wii U. ...sort of

[@TheAust]

What about the 3DS?

[@JDBlack-gf9ok]

Yeah, I love my 3DS. Nothing lackluster about its library.

[@ChrisTomson]

TheAustnod brilliant console, despite not using the 3D. At least it's properly backwards compatible to the normal DS

The very concept of DLC is just stupid to me, and is just a way for game companies to be greedy

[@PabloAlmeidaFF9]

Freddie Thompson I don't think so. Expanding a game you have and love can be great when you are losing interest in it due to repeating the same maps over and over. Side stories or prequels are better served as DLC than full games. The problem, as always, is that greedy companies grab a cool concept and abuse it. It happened to micro transactions, to DLC, to online multi-player, to franchises in general...

The Vita is a great system. Its a failure in terms of how many people have bought it, but it has a strong attach rate and is a quite profitable system to develop for. Well, at least developers that make games for it say that.

[@BrendanShrader]

I have one, but it doesn't have many good games, and has some expensive things. At least Sony made a 2nd one, and most games are cheaper than 3DS games

[@LiveLXStudios]

[@AK4TsEv3N]

I am an Xbox gamer, still I think one of the worst videogame Fails is the stupid "Xbox Gold Membership".

[@perfectlybalanced8995]

[@AK4TsEv3N]

Evan Sulich It's really expensive and yet, they make you pay to play the other half of the game and to unlock most of the Xbox functions, I hate it.

[@AK4TsEv3N]

***** It's bullshit. Period.

[@KarloBatur]

nah,ps has a ps gold or ps+ i can't remember,but it has one of those expensive upgrades too

[@Beandip867]

at least they are giving you free games like ps+

[@AllieRX]

It's too early to tell if the Wii U's gonna be a full-fledged commercial failure. It might end up being a moderate success like the GameCube.

[@GoobyHJ1]

hopefully, but it's hard since the console has been in the market since november 2012, and has sold like 4 million units, and the ps4 has been out like 4-5 months and has sold like 7 million units

[@Konranjyoutai]

It won't succeed, it has the Vita syndrome; the damn thing is just too expensive and has too little consumer interest.

[@AllieRX]

Brandon Frazier It won't be expensive for long. Same with the Vita. They'll eventually become affordable.

[@Konranjyoutai]

Allie-RX Both have been out for over a year now, if they haven't had a market made for them yet, there will never be a market for them made. Both are widely considered a commercial failure and sinking any more money into the dying portable consoles would be asinine. Both companies are moving on to bigger and better things; trust me.

[@daveid9271]

It's just not very friendly with third party developers. but who knows maybe they'll get some really great games and it'll go gamecube on us.

[@Maubari]

No matter how much hate the WiiU and Vita get, I really love those systems and I'm glad that I don't follow what everyone else likes. I determine what I like best.. not some cheap fanboy on the internet. Both LEGO City Undercover on WiiU and Tearaway on the Vita are fantastic games

[@VanHellion666]

I have a Ps4 and a WiiU and I enjoy both at the same level! now the fuckin´madness will be Mario Kart 8!

[@Maubari]

Van Hellion Yeah! I can't wait either. I wanted to get the PS4 as well, since I want to try new things, but since I heard it can't play PS3 games I think i'll go with the PS3

[@Kaisergali]

I have a wiiu and already waiting for that mario kart to come home. If I could I would own all 3 consoles and portables but, that's out of my budget>

[@dunkelschakal]

Van Hellion only mario kart? Wait for smash bros will be a torture, it looks soo damn good! I love my wiiu, and until batman arkham knight arrives, there is not even one game that make me want an xbox or ps4. The question is still open. I have a 360 but i don't know if i have to buy a ps4 or xbox one

[@PurpleIsALetter]

Deadshot Studios There are no Halo games coming out in the future. The only thing on its way is Call of Crysisfield 8 but I sure as hell am not buying an entire console to play that garbage, especially after Call of Crysisfield 7: Master Chief Goes to Cybertron was a complete trainwreck and espcecially since that "console" is a glorified cable box. Plus I can get Titanfall on PC so that's not a selling point for me

There are a few boneheaded business decisions that made me facepalm: 1) Microsoft buying Rare and it's franchises from Nintendo 2) Activision buying the Crash Bandicoot and Spyro franchises, not only that, Universal Interactive forced Sony, Naughty Dog and Insomniac to give up the Crash and Spyro franchises if they didn't want to, which sucks and in the end, is all Universal Interactive's fault

[@V-Jes]

sierra wasn't that bad and sony never had the license of crash or spyro but universal

[@NinteSegaRarew]

mywlan2 I'm sorry but to my opinion, Sierra have killed these two franchises when they released Crash of the Titans, Mind over Mutant and The Legend of Spyro series, THESE GAMES SUCK, I did not like them. I'm also just stating that it is 100% very unnecessary for a video game company and/or franchise(s) to be bought out by another company and the franchises have not been the same, and what's worse about Spyro, Activision has been making Skylanders which I've never payed attention to. -_-

[@NinteSegaRarew]

mywlan2 P.S. If you find Crash of the Titans, Mind over Mutant and The Legend of Spyro trilogy good games, don't worry, I won't be immature with your opinion by being a fool, judge, and start any unreasonable flame wars.

[@elrodrigo6188]

Mojo should rename their video game lists: "How many Top 10 lists can we force Duke Nukem Forever, Night Trap and ET on?"

[@DodderingOldMan]

Here's the thing about on-disc DLC: publishers are going to charge for that DLC anyway. Literally the only practical thing about them taking it off the disc is that the consumer now has to download it, adding a little bit more hassle to the process. I understand why, psychologically, people don't like it, but just think about it for a moment. Also. always-on DRM is not great, but the public anger was baffling to me. It wasn't just that people were irritated, they were morally outraged. To be honest the whole thing made gamers seem kind of like whiny children who couldn't handle the minor setback of not being able to play a particular game for a few days. Yes, it was a pain in the arse. It was not the end of the world. And as long as people are going to pirate, publishers will seek ways around it. Can't hold that against them.

[@dylanbradshaw8489]

Not really. DLC should be content that they work on after the release of the game to keep people interested in playing it in the future- Something that wasnt available before. It should not be something that they already had in the game on the launch date that they withhold for the sake of making a couple of extra bucks.

[@Gr1mmReal1ty]

i see day one downloadable dlc and on disc dlc as the same thing, both are distasteful

[@beejor]

The DLC thing makes sense to me. Most games require you to accomplish certain tasks before unlocking other parts of the game anyway; you're technically locked out of that content as well. And the publisher doesn't falsely advertise, where you expect to play as a character not even revealed to be on the disc, at the time you paid the retail price. Finally, there are many built-in restrictions on game discs, such as requiring the disc be in the tray even if you install the game to the hard drive. These are artificial restrictions that are very reasonable given the business model of console gaming, and the extra convenience of bandwidth savings (along with resourceful hackers being able to unlock the content themselves without paying). Think of the energy savings alone in a 2-20GB download times a million consoles. In regards to always-on DRM, that's a whole different story. It requires an internet connection where many people may not have one, and the extra security added is moot. If someone can mod a console to play DVD-Rs, they can mod it to connect to a fake DRM auth proxy server. All always-on does is inconvenience legitimate consumers and waste energy.

[@mitchell2719]

There is zero benefit to on-disc DLC. If you want each version to always be compatible with others, then patch in the content (in the case of fighting games) and let players unlock it as they want. Everything on-disc should be available to unlock in-game or usable from the very start. And if they can't download the patch, they definitely can't play online with other copies of the game!

[@beejor]

As mentioned before, the bandwidth savings is a major benefit for producers, consumers, and the environment. And most games make use of unlockables, whether you need to pay extra or not. You could just as well argue that it's "unjust" to have to beat stage X to unlock character Y or weapon Z, since you "own" the whole disc. In actuality, you do not own most of your copyrighted media, you are actually only licensing it for personal use, bound by the terms of the license agreement (which is why you can't legally play your DVD for a stadium of people). Finally, there's no real philosophical argument to be made for false advertising or being cheated out of content you didn't pay for or own in the first place, regardless of where the 1s and 0s are sitting. As a consumer you aren't being inconvenienced or cheated in any way. It's like your friends coming over and putting their bags in your closet; just because they're in your closet doesn't mean you now own them.

[@visoredgruntR34]

Plus need I remind you that when Nintendo (albiet working with Game Freak) realeased Pokemon X and Y it sold more units than the total of PS Vita units ever sold? Nintendo has plenty of games that people go crazy over (Zelda, Pikmin, ANY Mario game, Metroid, etc.) and the company is known for both succesfull and not-so much innovations. The latter less common. Which is why Nintendo can literally last over A DOZEN YEARS without making profit and still exist. Also while the Wii U is almost a failure, people still are buying Wii games, why? Because the Wii is a great system. This generation does not HATE Nintendo, lord no. This generation LOVES Nintendo, just Nintendo is making some poor choices. Hopefully the Nintendo Fusion will fix these issues but only time will tell

[@ITheLoZKingI]

"It wasn't until Nintendo came into the market in 1985 to revive the industry singlehandedly that things improved." More specifically, a certain green-clad elf-like hero that revived the industry. And no, I'm not making that up. Yes, Super Mario Bros. was a hit and sparked interest in video games again, but it wasn't until The Legend of Zelda was released that video game sales broke through the roof and signified a new chapter in video game history.

[@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor]

Nintendo is the true gaming king!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TiberianFiend]

Sales say otherwise, unless you mean the King of Fail.

[@austinspurlock4647]

***** and you would rather be doing your taxes in your spare time?

[@clayjack9969]

How popular something is should have no effect on the quality of the product.

[@austinspurlock4647]

clay jack very excellent point

[@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor]

clay jack Agreed...

[@Ultrox007]

While the crash was awful... I really do feel DRM should be pushed to #1 considering it's leading us to another crash...

[@BramClaes]

I think it should lead to a crash, but I am afraid it won't

[@Ultrox007]

Josh_Video Well for starters people who know nothing about games or gamers are in charge of making games (see: Activision, EA, etc) so they make things that profit the companies and not the players as seen with Simcity, Skyrim, and Diablo III (Yes Skyrim, it crashes non-stop and feels incomplete; you shouldn't sell a game on the basis "well if our players mod it...") Second the budgets have gotten insane so if you're making a console game, it had better be a CoD clone because trying anything innovative is risky and people don't want to throw away millions. Luckily the PC has a decent indie crowd so hopefully the PC will stay afloat and only consoles will crash. Third is the issue with bribery in the review system. Ever notice how no matter how bad a game is, if it's made by a AAA company it gets a 9/10? That should imply the game is near perfect. And if a game gets a 10/10 that means it IS perfect... and if that's the case, why would the companies need to patch it or add DLC? Meanwhile great games by smaller companies get crap reviews. I refer you to IGN if you need any proof of this, just look up "Godhand vs Imagine Babyz" Fourth companies are pushing away talent for trying anything different, yet another reason the indie crowd on PC is doing amazingly while consoles sit and stagnate. Finally we don't know what we're buying anymore. With the lack of demos or gameplay in trailers existing and the review system being owned by the companies, we're pretty much being told everything is a "9/10 must buy" and have to take their word for it. Not to mention when we do see 'gameplay' in a trailer it's usually a bait and switch. For a recent example, look at Aliens: Colonial Marines. Really hyped, bought heavily, SUCKED HORRIBLY. In short, we're one objectively crappy CoD release away from the console market dying. I may hate CoD myself, but when I saw "objectively crappy" I mean it needs to be literally broken to the point where people can't even play it.

[@anissaunicorns1937]

I find it funny that this video is talking about the E.T game, when people are digging up thousands of those things literally 45 minutes away from where I live.

[@alucard2261]

For Christmas my parents decided to get the family a Wii U. They said they did their research and to be honest, the did well. Since my brother is practically insane we can't at any gun related games. There aren't many gun games for the Wii U so that's a plus. Other awesome games have come out like Smash Brothers, Bayonetta 2 and many more. Also Pvz garden warfare is coming soon so my brother is super happy. Now my folks knew not to get an Xbox one. They are too expensive and we heard bad reviews about it so it was out of the picture. None of my friends have one anyway so I couldn't play with them. The playstation 4 on the other hand wasn't as bad but we couldn't play many of the games anyway.

[@clayjack9969]

If you can't get any gun games the wii u is the only console you can get, 99% of the ps4s and xbox ones library are shooters. But the wii u is great so don't worry,

[@cyruscrompton8221]

clay jack that's something unique about Nintendo. Hey PS3 had COD: advanced warfare. Oh whats that its on the xbox 1? original.

[@TheGrandRevo]

If your brothers insane I don't think he should be playing Bayonetta

[@alucard2261]

He won't. He's too busy playing Mariocart 8 and Smash Bros. The only two games we have

[@thepenguinzor4172]

clay jack don't you mean 60%? I've seen games like LittleBigPlanet, Forza and other ones I could list

Aunt Becky ??? In 1:59 full house

[@DrFross09]

i fell asleep with this playlist on i think it cycled through about 6 times you're welcome watch mojo

[@crystalqueen9711]

Virtual boy should have been on the list

[@RollOnToVictory]

already on the Nintendo fail I think

[@DartLuke]

Games for Windows Live

[@jp3813]

Still so American-centric. The video game crash of 1983 did NOT almost destroy video gaming "as a whole". The industry was alive and well outside of North America. Especially in Japan where Nintendo was flourishing.

[@chickoman355]

Holy shit my Xbox one just turned on when the announcer said "Introducing the Xbox one" because it must have thought i said xbox on

[@chickoman355]

lol

[@biohazard7991]

Since you have an Xbox One, if you are using your speakers on your TV, and some random person hops-on whatever game you're playing, and over voice chat yells: "Xbox Off" over and over, will it turn off?

[@chickoman355]

no because a pop up appears asking if you want it off

[@LILpiecesCOMITY]

chickoman355 What if your say "Xbox off" and than "Yes" ?

[@yacabo111]

Zane Newberry It won't listen to ANYTHING the TV says, it's been designed to do so

[@MrGameControler]

lol ProJared's Sim City footage

[@xepic911]

Hey, it's ProJared :D Awesome.

[@KewelsBri]

Speaking from the beginning of this video, Sonic 06 better be on this list..

[@MusicalBrother1900]

+BKOOL999 LMAO

[@twerkinturkey2343]

...

[@ItsAsum]

nope

[@dark_agent_4752]

Nah sega launching the dreamcast next to the PS2 was worse

[@RiseKujikawas]

i extremely loved my vita carry it around wherever i go. but yeah i understand why its on the list

[@rodrigokuszek]

because of its price?

[@RiseKujikawas]

Rodri Carp that and lack of marketing

[@rodrigokuszek]

ohh

[@nesfan8]

You used ProJareds video on this video. Subbed

[@jhhwild]

Where is Virtual Boy?

[@TheDuckClock]

Listen to the start of the video before the list starts.

[@jhhwild]

TheDuckClock I guess they included it in one of their other videos, still they could have at least had a picture of it or something in this video because when I think of video game fails Virtual Boy is one of the first things that comes to my mind.

[@Rctive]

ET Cartridges were actually recently found. ITS TRUE!!!!

[@SupermarketSweep777]

The amount was different (hundreds found not millions) but yes some legends are true.

[@chumbert5]

I heard.

[@thegrief13]

im in college for video game design and graphic design, and i remember learning a bit about the crash of 84.

[@PidgeyHowler]

For some reason 4:53 - 5:04 always makes me laugh.

Ah yes, I had a lot of fun captioning that.

[@lucasbailey9556]

Xbox one creators: Buy the Xbox one! Its amazing! Sports and TV! Me: sorry, I already have a basket ball and others and a DVR at my house.

[@SgtAwkk]

Lol. But now since a new lead is leading the team he's like "WE DON'T HAVE SPORTS AND TV! We now have game s*** BIATCH!" The future is bright for Xbox... :)

[@lucasbailey9556]

And that light is dimming for me.

[@sailormoonfan224]

#3 was fascinating as hell.

[@Flashback007]

The game crash was bad, really bad. Thank god to some Italian plumber

[@DioGoodguy]

Thanks Nintendo.

[@lampham5525]

Thank playstation, pc too

[@Yamislittleangel55]

I learnt in Films Studies that according to a survey, a lot of people aren't fond of 3D movies. So why did Nintendo think it was a good idea to realise a 3DS when loads of people don't like 3D films?

[@alexanderpetrov8074]

Because with 3D movies you have to wear those stupid glasses, with the 3DS you don`t.

[@Yamislittleangel55]

Good point

[@sammythesnake1986]

Alexander Petrov Why don't T.V's use the same tech as the 3DS?

[@Yamislittleangel55]

*shrugs*

[@Bl4CJ4CK]

I like 3D movies only if 3D glasses are comfortable. 3DS just makes my eyes hurt.

[@TheMovingRock]

You put boogie2988's Francis in there... Hihi..
