L.A. Noire, which won't work on my computer. Alice: Madness Returns, because my copy is glitched and won't let me toggle between weapons. Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, a really ****ty sequel that lacked in every bit of quality that the first game had. I can't remember anything else that ticked me off enough to regret.

Pokemon Alpha Sapphire...it's practically the same thing as Pokemon X/Y, other than region changes...so I got bored really quickly. I wanted to like it more, but I just don't. 40$ down the drain...

If you want it, I'd be more than happy to give it to you. Don't know if you can send games from your library though.

I don't know if it's possible either, but it's sweet of you to even think about giving it away 030
I have a lot of e-shop games I regret buying: Falrune, Puzzlebox Setup, Kersploosh (although this was actually a club nintendo reward...could have spent those coins on something else!), My Aquarium Seven Oceans (I am sooo disappointed in this game! It kept glitching on me and destroying my tank setups to where you couldn't actually see any decorations. The fishing was fun though.), Planet Crashers (I had so much hope for this game but it was mediocre at best) and last but not least, Music on: Learning Piano. There was no learning involved in the game, it went straight to you having to play the song without previously learning it. 
final fantasy 71726482 (i honestly forgot the number) on the PS3. i didn't buy it myself, since it was a birthday present. my friend always talked about it like it was the greatest video game series in history so i got kinda curious and asked my grandparents to buy it for me. big mistake.
it's still in its original case and everything. i've only taken it out once. ;;

Fantasy Life! You would think a game with a title like that would be super fun and a chance to escape reality but no, it wasnt at all what I thought it would be! People like to compare it to animal crossing but I dont think they could be more different. The gameplay was boring and the characters yammered on and on way too long during the cut scenes. I was sadly disappointed i had high hopes!
i had high hopes!This..so..much. Apparently they did fixed it but it never appealed to me. Probably because I'm used to Terraria and it's a better game in the genre.
The problem I personally had with Starbound was that the concept of it isn't as cool as you think at first. '
Like.. WOO INFINITE TERRARIA WORLDS!! wait... wouldn't this get really boring quick? Yup it does..
Also back when I played it was kinda destinationless. You had the bosses and all that but the breaks between bosses are long when you want to prepare for them, so you're just kinda ****ing around hoping for loot and occasionally mining which thanks to the random generated events I didn't do much. So idk it felt too loose. Was damn pretty tho

Yeah the cut scenes were really horrid. Especially the beginning ones just made me wanna pop out the cartridge.. just shut up butterfly.
Pretty sure the animal crossing community will compare animal crossing to anything that's liked and has ANYKIND of similarity to animal crossing at this point. Even if it's just cutesy, or a life sim... ITS LIKE ANIMAL CROSSING. ye rite
Oh my goodness, Pokemon Alpha Sapphire is amazing though, did you ever even catch Kyogre??

Mmph...>is< there a game I regret buying?
....Does GetAngry 2 (GetAmped 2) count? I spent $80 on that and >never< got a cash-only accessory. That, and it is the one MMO that boils my cauldron enough to conjure irritable black energy spirits. Worst waste of online money I've ever done.

I still felt StarBound was kinda distanceless for a long time so I gave up on it except for getting cards and that they took so long to fix it. I might be biased but I prefer Terraria all the time. At least it was functional from the beginning, pretty much

I was so disappointed in this game too. It portrays itself to be a game that gives the player unlimited freedom, however so much is blocked off to the player and it makes you progress through the plot to gain access to new areas. It also didn't help how lengthy all the text was, it dragged on for minutes at times. The various jobs weren't as diverse as the would seem to be either, as most of the gathering and crafting jobs were just reskins of the same minigames.
It's odd considering how much I adore Rune Factory 4 compared to Fantast Life. I guess RF4 just had more appeal to it in the since that you would actually want to listen to the character dialogue and the fact that farming and dungeon crawling were completely different mechanics instead of reskins. It also helped that Rune Factory 4 offered options such as forging and tailoring, but didn't block it off as it's own section of the game that you had to commit to while your other skills become blocked off in return.

Yeah, I heard that one of the most recent patches were suppose to "fix it" but I haven't had Starbound installed for almost a year now and no one will bother to say what makes the game "fixed".

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, the only Zelda game I can actually say I hate. People say that Skyward Sword was linear, but at least its more hidden than ST, AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE TRAIN IN GENERAL UGH.
Paper Mario: Sticker Star, need i say more?
The Sims 3 for 3DS AND DS, I only got them because i didnt have a laptop at the time and now looking back they were horrid.
MySims Agents and MySims whatever the flying game is. I loved the first game when i was younger but those two are just UGH. I cant even beat Agents because of that stupid following thing.

Spirit Tracks and Phantom Hourglass are the worst Zelda games. I p much only played them 'cause Zelda games and I regret it ugh.
Yeah, also Starbound is just a more annoying and even more pixilated Terraria for me, I never got into it at all.

I bought the original Rumble, and it only had Kanto and Sinnoh Pokemon.
"not really a game but a game console, i wish i didn't buy the wii u. i should've waited until more games were out."
Yeah you'll probably have it lying around until better games like the new Legend of Zelda and Xenoblade Chronicles X are released. It may be worth it in the end though, it just takes time for a system to become a beloved purchase once the right games come out. That goes for my PS Vita and 3DS. I was not a huge fan of handheld systems, but after I played Bravely Default, Persona Q, Persona 4 Golden, Fire Emblem Awakening, and Final Fantasy X HD, I changed my mind entirely.
I do regret buying Conception II though. I feel my gag reflex whenever I mention the game.
