[@farmzombie]

"Failed Mascots" doesn't seem right. "Forgotten" is more accurate. Eartworm Jim didn't fail. There was enough interest in the character to justify four games and a TV show. It just didn't last.

[@georgewilson7432]

Jim even got some comics, albeit a short lived run.

[@dickthiccem8888]

Well and to be fair is going to have a new game on a console no one would bye, but the creator just finished an indiegogo0 for the new comic book raising over $700k

[@VulpeRenard]

Bubsy is one of those rare video games where more things in the game will kill you than in real life.

[@vanessaashford9203]

I like how little thought went into Bubsy being made a bobcat, like he glides (something literally no bobcat does), and is about as fragile as a literal soap bubble (when bobcats are usually though of as pretty scrappy critters), and yet he still constantly tries so hard to reassure you of how cool and sarcastic he is and how he definitely doesn't care that a fall distance of about seven pixels can obliterate him (okay, maybe more like twenty pixels, but you get the idea)

[@scrittle]

"WHAT-COULD-POSSIBLY-GO-WRONG!" (they knew)

[@SmeddyTooBestChannel]

A MOMENT OF PEDANTRY: Dynamite Headdy wasn't meant to be a "mascot" character per-se (at least, to the extent of most of these others). Treasure at the time had a stringent "No Sequels" policy (which the idea of a sequel is mocked in the bonus ending!), so technically regardless of the game catching on or not in the public eye, there was no way it was gonna "fail".

[@AwesomeAceZ]

Thank you for informing me of this! I've also learned that Decap Attack was a reskined game from Japan. I thought that Dynamite Headdy and Chuck D. Head were Sega mascots because they're often included in Sega Genesis compilations.

[@warbossgegguz679]

They made a sequel to Gunstar and Sin and Punishment later though.

[@DmitriiGlandarius]

Most of these games don't have mascots, just characters. They don't have a massive trademark behind them to push and often only have one game. The more fitting title would be "failed platformers" or "terrible and mediocre 16 bit games"

[@dingbat3440]

No comment in regard to your post but I love the irony that you have a Super Tempo avatar.

[@LadyBrightcynder]

I've never heard of Ardy Lightfoot in my life, but I'm digging the character design. He's adorable!

[@elvensith001]

Yeah this, he's great!

[@jimmyhirr5773]

For real, he looks like a lost Disney cartoon.

[@vanessaashford9203]

apparently, unlike most of these, his game actually got pretty good reviews back in the day, although its extreme difficulty was also apparently noted. Might be part of why the game is so expensive now (which Vinny is right, that can definitely just be due to a physical game's rarity, but demand helps as well). It was developed by ASCII Corp, who are also known for RPG Maker, and the MSX computer

[@MobyTheDuck]

Other mascot games I'd recommend, but they are probably already in the last 12 games he will play later: - Cool Spot - Vectorman - Zero The Kamikaze Squirrel - Ristar - Kid Chameleon - Chuck Rock - Toki (Although it got a new game recently) - Bubba n Stix - Bubble and Squeak - Sparkster

[@mr.h3246]

Most of these games are actually very good.

[@dingbat3440]

The Sega Saturn is also a gold mine for forgotten mascots: Astal, Clockwork Knight, Bug.

[@FrameRater]

Well sure but a number of those aren't really failed, just products of their time. Gex, Ty, Glover, Jazz Jackrabbit, they had their time and place. I believe the first of those three reached greatest hits status and Jazz Jackrabbit is well known to PC platforming communities. Still interesting games to look at nonetheless.

[@MrDmoney156]

I don't think Blinx the Timesweeper would be possible because that's on the Xbox and im not to sure anyone is familiar with setting up a OG Xbox emulator as far as i'm concern.

[@DanoLefourbe]

I loved Plok so much. I got it in a bargain bin when I was a kid, just because I liked the look of the box. It was flawed, and I could see it even as a kid. But damn it was so unique and so fun and colorful. I agree, I would love to see Vinny react to it. it probably aged poorly for someone who didn't play it then though.

[@Colonel-Llama]

Hell yes. Hope he mentions the webcomic as well if he plays the game.

Vinny should try a Dynamite Headdy playthrough or at least give it a solid hour or two, I think he might enjoy it. High Seas Havoc was a game I loved and hated. The difficulty of the bosses got mega hard in the later levels. Never managed to beat it. James Pond was actually a relative success - it had 3 games and I think Olympics Games-style althetics spin-off. James Pond 3: Operation Starfish was another really fun game with lots of levels and features. Kid Kleets reminded me of Marco's Magic Football, but looks like a much worse version of it (and no bonus of the ball returning after a short while).

I wouldn't say Earthworm Jim was a failed game, I'd say it's forgotten.
