[Classic] Over-Rated SNES Games

It's gotta be California Games II. I remember when this came out, all the magazines were like "GAME OF THE YEAR?", and then two months later I'd flip to their mailbags and readers had replied with "YEAH IT IS". The perfect scores kept rolling in, you had to book in advance at video stores to rent it out for the weekend, and even then the waiting list was backed up for months.

A California Games II cartoon came about, it won 17 emmy awards, a gimmick band formed with their chart topping hit "California Games II is cool you should buy it come on now dance". It was a fucking nightmare. Every front page of every newspaper mentioned California Games II, 60 Minutes did a 90 minute special about the events.

"This one has hang gliding" they'd say to the developer, who was dressed up like royalty. He would simply nod his head in response. "That wasn't in the first one, what was going through your head when you made this heroic decision?" The developer would then just laugh right into the camera, for 87 minutes. This episode was soon released on VHS and caused a worldwide shortage of plastic to make the tapes.

It's just gotten worse thanks to the internet. You see all these stupid goons having a huge toss about how good it was. "Urr hurr, California Games II was the best Super Nintendo game ever, I loved the character development with the jet ski".

"I remember when I got a game over after falling off my skateboard on the half pipe, that was a huge plot twist! The true-to-life 3D Mode 7 graphics were even better than my grandma!"

I mean, yeah, California Games II was okay, but wow, the way everyone goes on about it you'd think it was the best game ever made.

YES WAY? NO. NO WAY YOU FILTHY BAG OF DICKS.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You've broken my heart, Talbain.

It's broken.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

ZELDA THREAD. I didn't like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

That was a terrible Super Nintendo game.

What a useless hunk of plastic Ocarina of Time was.

Wait, it was plastic? But... but the box told me it was limited edition GOLD! I thought I'd made quite the investment.

This Super Nintendo game just keeps getting worse.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
