Sure, the levels were amalgamations of various segments from the film, but, again, everything just paled in comparison, and that’s probably one of the many failures of the game. In this adaptation, you may have controlled Mickey Mouse who was, thankfully, the Sorcerer’s Apprentice, but your goal was to collect musical notes that went missing while the robed mouse was sleeping. Unfortunately, the game based off said masterpiece was nothing like it, and especially not as grand or impressive as the actual Sorcerer’s Apprentice “skit.” The film Fantasia is utterly glorious, and perhaps one of the greatest things that Disney has ever released (we’re pretending Fantasia 2000 never existed). Why bring dumb sports into it? Unless it’s jousting. If you liked things like this (medieval stuff and weapons), then you could just get a medieval game with weapons. Not only was Pigskin a strange fusion between two sports (so you didn’t get to play the sports you actually cared about) but the game’s only saving grace was that the characters were from medieval times and could pick up random weapons (axes, maces, nooses, scythes, spears, swords and torches) lying around on the playing field, of which was littered with pits, bushes and logs. In Pigskin, teams tried to score as many touchdowns as possible, very much like American football, but it also featured elements more akin to rugby, too. In addition to competing with a plethora of Madden NFL games, from 1994 to 1998, it had to stand up against actual Rugby games, such as Australian Rugby League, International Rugby and Rugby World Cup ’95. There are two reasons why the Rugby-esque Pigskin 621 A.D. At least the titular speedy-blue character was included. It’s not just a puzzle game, but an overtly simple puzzle game (you must eliminate the whirlybob ring shapes on the playing field by matching two together. It’s nothing like the Sonic games everyone loves.

Who’d have thought? In no time, they got their digital hands on the Sonic Eraser ROM, exclusively available through Sega’s Japan-only download service, and allocated it across the globe for the world to “enjoy” in February of 2004.Īnd yet, the world soon realized there was a reason why the Maganet was only a Japan release because games like Sonic Eraser were a complete waste of time.

And the Sonic CulT website mods just so happened to be resourceful when it came to Sonic stuff. Because of this, Sonic Eraser was doomed to forever be a “lost” Sonic game, outside of Japan, that is.īut then the internet happened. Sonic Eraser was made exclusively for those lucky few who owned a Sega Meganet, a modem for the Sega Mega Drive in Japan. You probably don’t remember it because you didn’t even know it existed. Sonic Eraser? What in God’s name is Sonic Eraser? Then there are games so emphatically stupid that mere words can never truly express the horrors and sheer disgust they undoubtedly provoked when played. With such a vast catalog at our fingertips, we needed a “theme” for these forgettable Sega Genesis/Mega Drive games and went with releases that deviated (in a bad way) from their respective franchises, not provocatively, mind you, because that usually makes things hard to forget, but in ways that were just so ridiculous that our minds made us forget about them.

With nearly 900 games to choose from, there are definitely more than 15 releases we forgot about over the years, especially after experiencing the purdy 3-D graphics on Playstation and Nintendo 64. 1988 saw the release of Japan’s Sega Mega Drive, and the Genesis was created the following year in North America, a whole slew of games were made, reaching a grand total of 897 titles.
