Top 10 Surprisingly Good Video Games Treated as Laughing Stocks of Their Franchises

The Top Ten
1 Shadow the Hedgehog

Thank you for recognising this game as the underrated gem that it is. Whilst I'll admit the story hasn't held up spectacularly well the gameplay and sheer fun factor to be had more than makes up for it.

People hate this game for dumb reasons like the story (which doesn't even matter in a platforming game) and cursing/violence, which is actually a good thing because it makes the game feel more mature.

2 Super Smash Bros. Brawl

This is the worst fighting game? I not want it for the worst! this is one of the games so bad it's good!

3 Metroid: Other M
4 The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
5 Paper Mario: Color Splash
6 Bioshock 2
7 Crash Twinsanity

This was a fun game. I had it as a kid and enjoyed it quite well.

8 Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

Thank you for realizing what an underrated gem this game is.

9 PaRappa the Rapper 2
10 Castlevania Judgment
The Contenders
11 Donkey Konga
12 Mortal Kombat 4
13 Kirby's Epic Yarn
14 Undertale

It really isn't a franchise since there is only one game.

15 Mega Man 8
16 Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
17 Halo 4
18 Fallout 4
19 Mario Kart 8
20 Final Fantasy XIII
21 Wario Land: Shake It!
22 Luigi's Mansion
23 Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
24 Pokemon Snap

Honestly people don't hate this game at all, people mostly just made fun of the idea until they played it and was like finally we got a good pokemon side game from nintendo
