History YMMV / LEGOIsland

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The first game contained many, many, many, many, MANY, of these. In fact, pretty much the whole game is comprised of them.

* GoodBadBugs: The famous runaway vehicles bug in the first game, where if you exit a vehicle while driving it before stopping, the vehicle continues going onward by itself using the same AI as the citizens to go along the roads. This works for every vehicle in the game aside from the helicopter, so you can even do it with the skateboard, the bicycle, and the jet ski. It becomes total havoc if you can get every vehicle in the game to do this.

** In the "Mr. Hates' Camp" mini-game in ''Lego Island 2'', Pepper mistakes baby ''T. rex'' for ''Velociraptor''. ''Velociraptor'' figures have been made since ''Toys/LEGODino'' in 2012.

* {{Narm}}: Most of the serious lines in ''LEGO Island 2'' turn into this. The Infomaniac's BigNo is a standout.
** Also the Brickster's complete DullSurprise voice acting upon being captured, finishing with a big "Heeeeeeeelp!"

* SpecialEffectsFailure: In the first game during the racing segments, all of the island's building and other distinct features disappear throughout the course of the challenge, possibly due to a coding error that prevented them from loading during the action of the main challenge.

* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: The rise of open world video games in the years since the original game came out can make it difficult to appreciate what a big deal the game was for the kids who originally played it. Back when the game came out, kids didn't have access to anything like it.

** OOOOPS! You have to put the CD in your computer![[labelnote:Explanation]]If you try to open the first game without the CD in the disc drive, a special message comes up with the Infomaniac reminding you to put the CD in your computer. It's an edited version of a line intended to play upon the player ejecting the disc from the drive during play that ultimately went unused, with the Infomaniac telling the player to "put the CD ''back'' in [their] computer". It quickly became subject to memetic edits [[YoutubePoop Youtube Pooping]], such as [[https://youtu.be/-ABh1XAOiWM?si=EsDmEoOvlPsD3b4Q this notable one]], where the Infomaniac asks you to do... [[AssShove something else]] with it.[[/labelnote]]

** "Oops! Driving ain't like skateboarding!"[[labelnote:Explanation]]From ''LEGO Island 2'', Pepper says this every time he crashes into something in the driving mini-game. It became notorious for how often it's heard.[[/labelnote]]
** "I ''must'' watch where I'm going!"[[labelnote:Explanation]]Similar to the above, Pepper says this line when he crashes into something in the bi-plane mini-game.[[/labelnote]]
* MemeticPsychopath: The Infomaniac, largely thanks to the aforementioned MemeticMutation leading to videos such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slyI2N2qiWQ The Infomaniac's Revenge]].

* BrokenBase: The faces in the second game. Charmingly hilarious or [[UnintentionallyUncannyValley insanely scary]]?

* AccidentalNightmareFuel: Some of the faces in the second game can be quite nightmarish depending on your viewpoint, especially in closeups, due to possessing a similar case of UnintentionalUncannyValley as ''WesternAnimation/ThomastheTankEngine''. Pepper's "shocked" face particularly stands out because of its suddeness.

** In the "Mr. Hates' Camp" mini-game in ''Lego Island 2'', Pepper mistakes baby ''T. rex'' for ''Velociraptor''. ''Velociraptor'' figures have been made since ''Toys/LEGODino''.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNSDo__LPQU The bad ending in the first game]] [[ItsAWonderfulFailure has made kids speechless]]. Basically, poor sounding music plays, everyone is crying, and ''almost everything is destroyed''. Then we see the [[VileVillainSaccharineShow The Brickster]] with a red tint on him with ''lightning in the background'', LaughingMad.

** The big [[DemBones skeleton]] on the racetrack in the first game. He knocks you back extremely far and makes your chances of winning very slim once it's happened.

* AccidentalInnuendo: Papa Brickolini's introduction video, ''especially'' "If you think that's good, you should taste it!" WebAnimation/{{YouTube Poop}}ers had a field day with this one.
