Christmas 2009 I got this present:

I tried to like it, I really did, but is bad, really bad.

My sister got it on the clearance section in my country.

 

[Omali]

Animorphs on the Gameboy. I was such a big fan of Animorphs the books and shows at the time so this seemed like a done deal, and it was awful.

 

[Trunx81]

Not getting what I wanted. Wished for a couple of Game Boy Games. My brother got two, I got a Queue for playing Billard. We had a table in the basement and I loved to play, but for me it was the worst Christmas ever. While my brother got to play Super Mario Land 3 - Wario Land.

No idea who got me this or why, but it was one of the few SNES games I owned as a kid and thought it was an indecipherable mess and never got through the 2nd fight. I played the shit out of it tho. It wasn’t until years later I realized it was from an established IP in japan.

I grew up watching dubbed reruns of the original Ultraman series. I was so excited for this game.

 

[Raven117]

None. Truly. Any game I got as a kid was pure gold. Growing up, my family didn’t have a ton of money for stuff like that.

 

[nial]

You made my night. Merry Christmas, good man.

I bought most of my bad games. My parents never gave me a bad one. And my wife would not buy them for me.

dont think I ever got a bad video game gift.

 

[ulantan]

Asked once for sonic unleashed. My dad bought sonic 06

 

[MrA]

Every year my brother gives me one of those crappy xxx in 1 portables as a gag, technically trash but I love searching for the rom hacks and trying to figure out the hardware by appearance alone.

 

[MasterCornholio]

Someone gave me a Phil Spencer Waifu pillow as a joke. Not the worst thing I've ever gotten but it's creepy.

Then again it was a secret santa thing so it's probably my fault that Phil is staring at me while I game.

did you get an elevated amount of wet dreams after having it in your bed?

Nah I have a fertility statue for thet. I keep it on my night stand.

Well it's possible for them to adopt you if you want. They would make lovely parents.

Power your dreams.

In 1999 I asked for Metal Gear Solid and got VR Missions instead. I was bummed and told my mom but wasn't a dick about it, two days later she returned the game and got me MGS.

 

[Trogdor1123]

I’m going to take this very liberally. I got a house coat one year and as I often same in a house coat while relaxing, it’s now gaming related. At first, I was super disappointed, who wants a house coat? Well, after a couple days I was in heaven. It was the worst, but became one of the best.

 

[NecrosaroIII]

Pretty sure I'm going to get the collectors edition of Curse of Strahd tomorrow. Which sucks because my DND group has been playing Curse of Strahd for 8 years.

 

[Badlucktroll]

Did your brother end up liking the PlayStation?

He thought it was awesome. i bet if that fucker hiroshi yamauchi went with cds for n64 the world would be a different place

 

[Krathoon]

Used Tandy TRS80 with a box of pirated games. That was a shared present with my 2 brothers. I'm not really pissed at my mum, but at her asshole colleague who offloaded it on her when she must have mentioned wanting to get a computer for her sons for Christmas.

Ha. I got a TRS80 Color Computer 2 long ago. Really, I should have got some games. Didn't it take cartridges?

 

[Kings Field]

Ghostbusters the game for NES. What a fucking piece of shit.

In all fairnesss my grandparents got it for me. I was hyped as a five year old and then trying to play that shit was horrible.

 

[Krathoon]

I don't think I ever really had a shit NES game. They were all pretty good.

 

[Krathoon]

Yeah. The Ghostbusters video game was an awful design. I think there is a Japanese version that is good.

 

[Krathoon]

I thought Spelunker was a shit game at the time, but it was actually quite good.

The same with Time Lord.

It probably would have had better third party support and would have sold better.

 

[baphomet]

I got Karate Kid on the NES.

To this day I can still beat it in like 10 minutes.

I asked for a gameboy and I got:
