These Video Game Items SUCK! (On Purpose!)
2. Nemesis - Cave Story
On paper, the Nemesis has the potential to be one of the greatest weapons in gaming history. It looks cool, has a great name, and can turn enemies into mulch as you unleash it's raw firepower complete with unlimited ammo. However Cave Story is not exactly a game known for it's willingness to help players out of a tricky situation, and so the Nemesis does indeed come with some drawbacks, and when you find out what they are you'll see what I had to add this to this NOT LIST.
You see, as with every other weapon in the game, the Nemesis can level up and does so when you defeat enemies, however unlike every other weapon, the Nemesis actually gets WEAKER as it levels up, to the point where it's "ultimate" form sees you shooting out....rubber ducks that only do 1 point of damage.

Can you see why I hate this now? Can you see why completing the side quest to get this absolute cud-munching weapon only for it to end up firing dirty dooks at enemies for damage more pitiful than my self-esteem would maybe possibly slightly annoy me? The devs were having a wee giggle here becausae Nemesis was actually a Greek God who struck down arrogant people, and here in Cave Story, the Nemesis sure does humble you quick quickly with it's crappy quackers.
