I'd say PS2 because it has the most titles of any platform ever and there's some real questionable shit that only ever released in the PAL market.

funny way of spelling "that's the correct answer, you're so cool anon, you can have my sister, my camel and 2 goats as well for that epic display of video games knowledge, I truly am not worthy, gommenasai".

So he's right? Glad we settled it.

Mobile. Android is probably worse for it than iOS but they're both rotten to the core. Not only do smartphones have the worst of the worst, they don't even have any decent games to balance it out like the PS2 and Wii had.
>>
>>383159813
At least that crap was mostly actual games. NDS had shit ranging from shitty ebook readers to glorified instruction manuals.

You know something that always fucked me up is the sheer amount of shovelware out there, and all the effort it took to make these games. Even if they did rip off models and animations from somewhere else just imagine that some group of people developed, packaged and shipped shit that less than 100 people on this planet played.

After I watched that half A press Mario 64 video it got me thinking, if people can analyze this game from 20 years ago to pull off the most extravagant glitches, couldn't the same kind of stuff be possible in some of these games? Mario 64 is one of the most popular games of all time so of course people who speedrun it would eventually discover all this wild shit you could do, but what if you could do multidimensional glitches in these games, it's just no one played it enough to find out?

At least it keeps the shovelware away from current-gen consoles.

I worked at a store that like 20 of these just sitting in a bin in the game section. For some stupid reason we never lowered the price and ended up being told to throw them all out in 2011.

No they've been gone since they took them away unless there was a pre 2009 removal I forget about.

We've gone half a decade without them at this point. They're gone senpai.

Anything made by Nintendo, the Switch is bound to get more shovelware by the end of the year.

I'm tired of you idiots blabbering on about the DS and PS2. You have no idea about Shovelware.

I would've taken one home even if I'd never play it more than once. Was this one of those "destroy unsold inventory" stores?
