10 Terrible Video Games We All Ended Up Owning

Though Carnival Games wasn't a pack-in for the Nintendo Wii as you might expect, it was nevertheless marketed to appeal to the broadest subset of players possible - namely, your young siblings, your parents, and even your grandparents.

The game delivers exactly what it says on the tin - an array of carnival-themed mini-games which are decidedly less diverse and enjoyable than venturing out to an actual carnival.

Again, the limitations of the Wii's motion controls - or rather, developers' abilities to take advantage of them - rears its head, not to ignore the risible graphics and repetitive gameplay loop.

Despite all this, Carnival Games sold 7 million copies across the Wii and DS, making it the third best-selling third-party game on the Wii.

Truly, it's a testament to the fact that even lowest-common denominator, quasi-shovelware could sell well on the Wii, per its massive install base and how brilliantly the console appealed to those who would never call themselves gamers.

Hell, the Just Dance franchise was still releasing on the Wii until last year.

But even for families hoping to have some fun playing together, Carnival Games surely outstayed its welcome after half an hour.
