* ''VideoGame/SnakesRevenge'' is a rejected chapter from the ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' canon made for the overseas NES market. Its gameplay isn't bad, although unreasonably difficult, rather short, and strikingly experimental in places (with side-scrolling stealth sections that make ''{{VideoGame/Contra}}'' look like ''VideoGame/{{Tetris}} DS''), and it has some legitimately good moments (like the boss battle against the tank and the container ship infiltration). However, the plot is incoherent even for a ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' game, thanks in part to the game's BlindIdiotTranslation (one part of the game involves getting in touch with a captured ally who is actually an enemy spy in disguise, a plot twist you can see coming thanks to his {{suspiciously specific denial}}s); the graphics are so bad that the heaving back of a dying man looks like some kind of vibrating phallic tentacle (and Snake [[HighlyVisibleNinja wears a luminous orange shell-suit to a stealth mission]]); the American manual was famously bizarre ([[http://www.atarihq.com/tsr/manuals/snakerev.txt 'Higharolla Cockamamie'?]]); and yet nothing even comes close to the final battle. It involves Big Boss coming back from the dead, transforming into a giant purple cyborg that breathes fire, and chasing Snake through a maze because he ''WANTS REVENGE''. This was stupid at the time, but later games in the ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' series has made it extremely HilariousInHindsight.

* ''VideoGame/FistOfTheNorthStarTwinBlueStarsOfJudgment'', to most casual audiences, seems like anything but a bad game: it features detailed pixel art, a treasure trove of {{Continuity Nod}}s to its home series, well-honed gamefeel, and a solid-if-small roster. However, in competitive circles, it holds a fervent cult fandom, being seen as one of the "kings of ''kusoge''", and all due to a single factor: the game is ''[[GameBreaker comically]]'' unbalanced. Every single character has at least one infinite combo, there are numerous bugs and exploits, the gaps between the high and low tiers are lightyears wide (with Toki in particular outclassing every other character in the game), and it is almost trivial for an experienced player to trap their opponent in a CycleOfHurting that can only be escaped if the user makes a mistake. And it's for this reason that the game has a following: the fact that matches in the game look like no other fighting game out there gives it a bizarre appeal, and the game's total brokenness makes tournaments focused on it oddly laid-back, with one match famously featuring a player who took a bite to eat while his character was stuck being dribbled like a basketball.

The album mostly consists of existing tracks by musicians such as Music/RoyOrbison, Music/SheenaEaston Music/SheenaEaston, Music/DireStraits and Music/CrosbyStillsAndNash that have bugger all to do with Creator/{{Nintendo}}. The comic somehow manages to be even more bonkers, which among other things includes; a SuddenlySpeaking and casually sexist Yoshi [[NoYay perving on Princess Toadstool]], Bowser wanting to join OPEC, and Princess Toadstool stealing a page from a book of magic spells by [[VictoriasSecretCompartment stuffing it down her cleavage]] (or [[GratuitousFrench "decolletage"]], "décolletage"]], as the comic calls it). The widely agreed upon highlight of all of this is the song [[https://youtu.be/cEVeto3LQxg "Ignorance Is Bliss"]] by Music/{{Jellyfish}}, the only song that was written specifically for the album. Unlike everything else about this project, the song is considered to be [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic genuinely good]]. The album is long since [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes out of print]], but can be heard [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8y-POk_gq2-AsRC3Bqx5jyI9XcFWoQ_9 through]] [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdf3MKBmsCI046dsEI4n_VoO3LXvzTEjN various]] [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyqGZPdBaZwr1ByQSpwbRscgcjbuFwa5u playlists]] on Website/YouTube.
