Games You Regret Buying

[Squidward]

Something where you're a vet for DS and you take care of ill animals. I thought guinea pigs are a kind of a lizard because they were portraid so poorly.

Nintendogs, Drawn to Life, and Metroid Prime Hunters. Those are the only ones I can think of at the moment.

Anything I was excited for, played a bit and then completely lost interest in, ha ha.

I bought some chess game once (to learn how to play) and never opened it. There's also Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy that for some reason I just can't bring myself to continue playing (even though so far the story was interesting enough) and then the 3DS remake of the Phoenix Wright Trilogy which I regret in the sense of "I was so excited for this game, so why the heck don't I actually play it?!"

I regret buying Sunset Overdrive. Fun game? Yes. Is it worth the money? No. The lasting appeal isn't too great imo.

Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for 3DS. It was soooooo bad. The multiplayer would always disconnect, too. Like, you can't use the multiplayer at all.

A New Beginning/Story of Seasons. They ARE great games with some new changes I appreciate. However, after Friends of Mineral Town I haven't gotten into a handheld HM title. I love the series, but they just can't keep me engaged for more than one in-game year.

Titan Fall. Probably unpopular opinion there but holy jesus it was not for me. I'm honestly one bad EP away from regretting The Sims 4 and that hurts my gamer soul to say. Dead Rising 3 only because I legitimately can't play anything involving zombies or slightly terrifying things but for some reason I thought it'd be a good idea. Same thing with Dead Island. Maybe should stop buying things with "Dead" in the title. Oh and COD Ghosts. Not that any COD is the pinnacle of gaming greatness but Ghosts was just bad. Almost swore off the series after that one. Those are the only ones that come to mind but, there's plenty of others that I can't think of.

I thought I would feel the same way about Story of Seasons since I love old HM games and was disappointed in A New Beginning, so I still have never bought Story of Seasons and I think I'll pass on it if it's really not that great.

I do regret buying Rayman 3D, Super Mario 3D Land, Nintendogs + Cats, another copy of ACNL, and SSB for 3DS. I just ended up selling all those games for cash since I never play them.

SSB4 for 3ds. =/ I couldn't fight properly with it and now my sister bought the WiiU and SSB4 for it haha.

Tomodachi life. Got boring rlly fast

Me too, I really disliked the game after a week or so.
And probably Journey for Ps3. It was a beautiful game but it was very short and lacked gameplay, it was more like watching a movie.

Pretty much all edgy indie things nowadays. I usually don't mind those graphics but I'm not paying like 20 bucks for a movie I can go see cheaper in the theaters lol

I bought MK7 shortly after MK8 had been released. Bad idea. Sold it the next day and made ?1 profit because I was bored to death of it after playing for the first 10 minutes.

If I'm honest, Mario Kart is only really good when you can play against friends. By the time I'd gotten MK7, everyone was playing MK8 so I immediately lost interest.

I have MK8 now, although I can't say I've played it loads still. Maybe every once in a while when someone asked if I wanted to play against them. That's about it though.

Eh I found it quite neat to do alone as well, at least for the handhelds part. Yea I pretty much only play MK(8) nowdays if I'm at some friends house or whatever but I prefer the earlier ones.

 

[Keyblades]

Resident Evil 5? I never play it.

 

[Shimmer]

It's funny, I've went through all of my old games back when I was a kid and there are plenty I would NEVER repurchase. Not in a million years. But I don't regret buying them simply because back then, I really enjoyed playing those games.

 

[Astro Cake]

I regret buying the first four Tropico games. They're so tedious and not fun.

 

[Alienfish]

That criminal girls.. I got it on PSN sale but eh I wonder why they ever released it here.. So damn censored and cut they should have let it stay in Japan tbh

 

[sour]

That one Harvest Moon game where you're on an island. So boring, like I don't even remember what the goal was apart from marrying the cutest dude.

The Harvest Moon where you had to collect those little elf thingies was way more fun.



Mario Party 8, boring as fork.
