Wizards & Warriors 3
The first game wasn't really as good as I remembered either(it still had some cool stages though) and I always found second one kinda shitty, but god damn. Third is just way worse than what I remember.
I appreciate the open world they tried to do, but it's serious mess and you could easily lock yourself out of progress by picking up too many items that you couldn't drop, and buying keys was shitty.

Hmmm. Same here. Made me really sad. It was huge part of my life as a kid.

ty the tasmanian tiger. the first one.
that game was the shit as a kid, and its the reason i can still do a semi respectable australian accent to this day.
i tried playing it again a while back and jesus.
the game clearly ran out of something, be it time or money or effort, cause it really feels like the last half is just missing.

Fuck off, I remembered it fondly just like you.
But just like me you probably don't remember dying over and over as a kid to get past all the tedious shit

Go play it now, and tell me it isn't unfair as fuck, I mean come on, how can you defend this archaic game design. It's not challenging it's just tedious as fuck, me and my friend stopped playing after we tried to get past the Pelennor Fields for the 10th time over 4 hours. And this used to be my favorite level.
I actually envy you guys, playing this today ruined this game for me.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Zelda oracles and LA. Holy crap the overworld is boring and a chore to traverse. Also most of the N64 games. Even greats like SM64 and OoT have those parts or levels I find tedious as fuck. SM64 has some really shitty level design. But the high points and the movement system makes up for it. OoT has some really padded puzzles, overall progression and mechanics that I would gladly romhack the shit out of if I could. The only thing that holds up in Rare games is the music.

In retrospect the NES games I played are just as good as I remembered. Contra and castlevania have killer levels and overall game design. I appreciate the fuck out of Zelda 2, Metroid and SMB. In fact I think the first SMB is miles better than all the sequels.

Snes was never a nostalgia point, I always thought the games on it sucked. Super metroid is eternal however. Chrono trigger lost a lot of points now that I know how bullshit time travel really is and how animu the whole plot is.
