History YMMV / Meteos

* NightmareFuel: Jeljel/Magmor's sound set in the original is even creepier than Meteo itself. Let's not forget Globin either.
** If you thought Globin's DS soundtrack was creepy, just wait till you hear the Wars version! The weird flutes and creepy chanting make it sound like someone's after you...
** NightmareRetardant: Jeljel/Magmor's sound set in ''Meteos Wars'' however is more mellow and gentle that emphasizes more on the planet's low population and loneliness.

** It likely wasn't developed at the time; Hanihula was only available in one of the DLC packs for Meteos Wars.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: ''Disney Magic'' is an unusual example. [[SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames It received overall good reviews from critics and gamers,]] however within the dedicated Meteos fanbase it is much more divisive and even reviled. The gameplay changes like holding the DS horizontally instead of vertically similar to ''VideoGame/BrainAge'' or ''VideoGame/RhythmHeaven'' and the change in gameplay focus from multi-player, Smash Bros. style action to a more linear single-player approach, and the removal of online play rubbed a lot of fans the wrong way. There was also the fact that, unlike some other puzzle games like Tetris or Puzzle League, Meteos had unique and interesting lore that players liked that was now being "paved over" with a license, which further [[{{Pun}} alienated]] a lot of Meteos fans.

* FridgeBrilliance: The shouts of ''"Hell no!"'' [[DummiedOut hidden]] in Gravitas's soundbanks in the "failed launch descent" slot might just be GettingCrapPastTheRadar (as failed launches are impossible there), but honestly, it's a planet where everything's a lot heavier - meteos blocks are already heavy enough to crush a planet's core, so multiply that by '''ten billion'''. If that huge stack of supermassive matter that you thought you had licked started ''coming back down all at once'', [[OhCrap that's probably what you'd be shouting, too]].
** The name of the planet also counts. It's almost definitely derived from the word "gravity," but considering that "gravitas" also means "seriousness" and that the Meteo attacks are even worse for them, the name fits in more ways than one.

That said, the game was still very solid and outside of the fanbase this trope was definitely [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] with the game being highly praised by critics and fans alike.

* TheScrappy: Starrii/Stellis according to popularity polls. The launch physics are fairly powerful, slow to descend and usually clears the screen in a single ignition, making it hard to go on the attack, build the Impact, or just get a good score over your opponent.

* AwesomeMusic: And it reacts to how you're playing to boot!
