Zelda:Link Between Worlds
The baseball mini-game is one of the most poorly designed, cheap, random and infuriating mini-games I have EVER played. It has instilled in me such a strong hatred for this game that I no longer desire to finish it. It's going back on the shelf. The Zelda franchise disappoints me yet again. There was nothing in Link to the Past, the last truly great Zelda game, that was this asinine.

First time I have heard one bad word about the game.

Mini games can be avoided, this is the equivalent of same some lame fetch side quest in Mass Effect makes it a lousy game.
You: Hey Doc, it hurts when I do this.
Doc: Don't do that.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.
Shining The Holy Ark
I put about 25 hours into this game, but honestly it just never got any better than it started out. Unbelievably grindy, badly designed interface, shopping is a major pain... its like this game was designed to be as inconvenient as possible. The graphics were pretty bad too, even for a Saturn game. You have to be a true masochist to find enjoyment in this clunky lethargic dungeon crawler.
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
Man what happened here? I kept playing this one hoping it'd recapture the magic of the first game, but that never happened. I put quite a few hours in as well, stopped at the Spider Ball boss... sixteen hours in? All I can say is this game felt like boring busy work the entire time I played it, not fun what so ever. The first Metroid Prime was fantastic, but Prime 2 just fell right off the boat. Ugh.
