Video Games that belong in a recycle bin

Not all video games of yesteryear are worth collecting. Some of them are so horrendous that they should be dumped into an E-Waste recycle bin. Here are just seven games that were better off in a recycle bin.

Bubsy 3D: This infamous game caused the death of a mediocre mascot's career. Not even The Woolies Strike Back or Atari's acquisition of Bubsy could revive the franchise.

Awesome Possum: Definitely the worst Sega Genesis game in existence, although Instruments of Chaos starring Young Indiana Jones would have been its biggest rival for that disgraceful title.

Superman 64: A horrible Nintendo 64 game that tarnished the reputation of superhero video games.

Street Fighter (Amiga version): A terrible port of a mediocre arcade game, and Ken wasn't even in this port of the original Street Fighter.

Mortal Kombat Advance: Probably the worst game in the history of the Mortal Kombat series, although it would have to contend with the Game.com port of Mortal Kombat Trilogy for the worst game in Mortal Kombat history.

Escape From Bug Island: A game so bad that some shovelware titles for the Wii are better than this abomination. Even more insulting is the fact that this game was a launch title for the Wii in Japan.

Babylon's Fall: A dumpster fire that would make you want to shut your wallets on Square Enix. It was so horrible that the servers had to close down after less than a year, and when that announcement was made, video game stores wanted people to take it off their hands for free, meaning any thief who steals a copy of Babylon's Fall without getting arrested for theft will be left in despair when the servers closed its doors for good because Babylon's Fall is no longer playable after its servers closed down.

Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations 2

Another Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic? Looks like this comic could become a new Internet meme.

In Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Pyra wears a tiny pair of shorts. It was so tiny that she had to wear a pantyhose when she became playable in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. However, Pyra's tiny shorts are actually comfortable. They just look rather silly, though.

People wonder how Tekken elements such as Kazuya Mishima being a playable character as well as a Heihachi Mishima Wig for Mii Fighters and a Heihachi Mishima Mii Brawler costume could be included in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Well, Tekken's history on Nintendo platforms began with Tekken Advance for the Game Boy Advance, although this was eclipsed by the Wii U Edition of Tekken Tag Tournament 2 in terms of popularity, but still, as the first Tekken game on a Nintendo platform, Tekken Advance remains an important footnote in Tekken history.

Did you know that kokeshi dolls were the main inspiration for the Miis that became the digital avatars for the Nintendo Wii, 3DS, Wii U and Switch consoles? Unlike the kokeshi dolls which do not have arms or legs, Miis have protruding limbs for arms and legs.

Relegating an advertising mascot to the sidelines for 17 years for being too scary is surely not the right thing to do for Ken Kutaragi. That was how Polygon Man became a malevolent being who seeks to take over Sony.

The original Street Fighter had Ryu and Ken as playable characters. It also had many ports, most of which are almost unplayable as compared to the barely playable Arcade version, and Ken does not even appear in the Amiga and Amstrad CPC versions.

While the MSX computer was associated with Sony and Panasonic, Fujitsu was also one of the manufacturers of the MSX computer. In fact, Fujitsu manufactured the MSX as the FM-X alongside their competing computing range, in the form of the FM-7, FM-8 and FM-77.

Keeping Up With Commodore

As an Australian Commodore C64 commercial slogan goes, "Are you keeping up with the Commodore? 'Cause the Commodore is keeping up with you!" The title for this comic is loosely based on that catchy slogan from the Australian Commodore C64 commercials.

There was a time when during the days of arcades being prohibited in Singapore, computer shops would let people play on computers for a rental fee. One of these computers people played on was the Commodore C64. It was simply put it, the saviour of the video game scene in Singapore during the 1980s. The Commodore C64 also became popular in Poland in the years that followed after the fall of communism (In 2016, an article was written about a Polish auto repair shop in Gdansk being the owners of a Commodore C64 that was still running for 25 years). Commodore's C64 also laid the foundations for the Amiga, another Commodore product that, like the C64, has a special place in our hearts long after Commodore went out of business. It gets better when you find out that Sega had ports of After Burner and Golden Axe on both the C64 and Amiga, even when the Sega Genesis was already available on the market at that time. How's that for an incredible legacy?
