Aw hell... I wonder if I have one of these... I've always been a sucker for Super Mario Bros. 3. I'm not sure if that's a guilty pleasure, though...

Enjoy.
so i searched for that game... having never heard of it. This is what i found:

so.... it is about strip teases of the future?
Pretty much. There's also some stuff about shooting robots in there but I'm never really paying attention to that. Oh, and supposedly there's a story behind all of it.

Nightshade (Kunoichi in Japan)... It isn's as good as Shinobi. Outdated pitfalls from generations ago plague the game like some bad, 80's themed nightmare. But when you get used to the timing and the move set, the game clicks. It never becomes a "great" game but it makes for an unforgettable prank on your uninformed friends. Bring them over, tell them how great the game is and let them try a few rounds at it. When they are ready to break the controller, take over and fly through one of the more stylish levels without ever touching the ground. Make it look like child's play.

Maybe I am missing the point, but a guilty pleasure is usually something you enjoy but are ashamed off, is it not?

I don’t view many games to be capable of causing me to feel guilty when I talk about them with others (atleast in real life, on the internet a prick will hunt you out). The closest I can think of is my enjoyment from the odd Japanese titles that will never make it stateside, like Princess Maker or Mahjong titles - I do not fully understand the base ruleset so some of these are very difficult.

It depends on who is watching I guess.

I'm embarassed if my non-gamer friends see me playing Disgaea because it has such geeky humor and goofy music and graphics. It's also a colossal time suck so it's kind of like admitting you do crack, only really really nerdy crack.

I'm embarassed to be seen playing Guitar Hero by anyone that is passing by my window. A 6'3" tall man jamming out on what appears to be a Fisher Price guitar just doesn't look as cool as it feels.

My absolute guiltiest pleasure though is Karaoke Revolution. I have a terrible singing voice, and I think a lot of the music on Karaoke Revolution is really lame, but I still think it's fun to play. I have to close the blinds and make sure none of the neighbors are around though.

I wouldn't say I have any guilty pleasure games, but I do have guilty pleasure movies.
Namely, the National Treasure flicks.
They are SO BAD, but I love them oh so much
