I mean was this really necessary welcome
to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
video game spin-offs that no one asked
for before we begin we publish new
videos every day so be sure to subscribe
for more great content for this list
we’re taking a look at spin-off games
that had most fans saying what the hell
were they thinking we’ll be looking at
games that just felt out of place with
previous titles and continued to confuse
fans to this day
number 10 Link’s crossbow training The
Legend of Zelda has provided great
memories and fun adventures to gamers
across the globe so it’s only fitting to
make a spin-off game all about target
practice right well wrong will give the
game points for being somewhat enjoyable
but it doesn’t even last very long you
can beat the entire game in about one
hour and possibly another hour if you
want to go for the completionist rating
you may be asking yourself why was the
Zelda franchise chosen for a shooting
gallery game and since when does link
use a crossbow well come on Nintendo had
to sell all of those we zappers somehow
right number nine pac-man 2 the new
adventures’ pac-man is fun at all but
what’s the world like outside the maze
asked basically nobody ever give me
pac-man a break from eating power
pellets and running from ghosts pac-man
to has the player babysitting pac-man
you do nothing but follow him around
manipulating the environment and
launching back man do anything but what
you would want him to do also what’s
with the gibberish voice acting
[Music]
if you’re looking for a good pac-man
game and we’re not quite sure why it
would be in 2018 but just play the
original great Uncharted fight for
was this a new uncharted game filled
with daring adventures smarmy banter and
a massacre of bandits nope even better
it’s a collectible card game
and you can only get it on the PS Vita
[Music]
all right no this is anything but
uncharted actually Naughty Dog created
this franchise for cinematic narrative
and thrilling adventures not to see
nathan drake’s face in what is
essentially Magic the Gathering if you
forgot that this was even a thing then
props to you because nobody really
wanted it number seven
mega man soccer hey kids did you know
that Mega Man is a huge soccer fan well
he calls it football but whatever mega
man soccer lets you manage your own team
of robot masters and well that’s pretty
much it really it’s as if someone had
set us off football manager and said hey
Mega Man needs a game like that but did
any man’s been known for difficult
platforming and run and gun gameplay why
are we recruiting robot masters with
terrible stats an AI for a few games of
soccer I guess this is meant to appeal
to kids and encourage them to get
outside more number 6 Resident Evil
survivor one of the best things about
Resident Evil is how it can be scary
with the exceptions of Resident Evil 5 &
6 obviously we’ve even had some
interesting spin-offs but one that was
not so rate was Resident Evil survivor a
light gun shooter with terrible shooting
mechanics and some of gaming’s slowest
combat it starts off kind of scary
because it’s Resident Evil but with
enemies that take an eternity to turn
around and attack you all the sense of
danger is lost despite the infuriating
controls number 5 Street Fighter the
movie the game yeah it’s a game that’s
based on a movie that’s based on a game
and just like the movie it sucks just
looking at the footage you can get a
sense of how dull this atmosphere is
compared to a regular game of Street
Fighter the animations all choppy the
visuals are bland in the gameplays
seriously lacking we understand that
this game was made at a time when movie
tie-ins were still a thing but did
nobody stop and think that this might be
a little ridiculous
I mean if we wanted a street fighter
game we’d buy a street fighter game well
this looks more like an unholy marriage
number four Hotel Mario she’s gotta find
Mario carpenter plumber Racer partier
doctor Baker and now professional door
shudder hotel mario doesn’t tasks you
with managing a hotel or traveling the
world
no no Hotel Mario tasks you with closing
doors not only is this an incredibly
tedious game but this just isn’t Mario
like at all he may talk the talk but it
certainly does not walk the walk of
course Mario wasn’t the only one who had
a rough go on the CDI oh boy I’m so
hungry I could eat it octorok number
they must one person one person who said
they wanted a Metroid game without Samus
well I guess that person’s wish was
granted when Federation force launched
in 2015
hardcore Metroid fans on the other hand
did not give this game a warm welcome
the game was lauded for its chibi liked
visuals reliance on multiplayer gameplay
which ruined the experience for solo
players and how small of a rule our
favorite Bounty Hunter had this time
around although we did happily except
[Music]
number two bridge constructor portal
hello and welcome back to the Aperture
Science computer-aided Enrichment Center
you know valve you could have come out
with news on portal 3 you’re a new team
fortress or even a small hint about
half-life 3 maybe maybe even an orange
box remaster just you know something and
then we get bridge constructor portal
serious injuries may still occur ok
we’ll admit that this game is somewhat
mildly entertaining and the concept is
kind of interesting but this didn’t need
to be a portal game what’s particularly
irritating about this is that it’s a
case of shoulda coulda woulda valve
should have and could have done
something more ambitious with any of
their franchises but they didn’t instead
we got a brand new game with the portal
name just kind of tacked on we are going
to have a lot of fun together number one
Pokemon channel like what even is this
can you take a guess well it’s
practically a television simulator for
lack of a better term instead of filling
out a pokedex Professor Oak asks you to
sit through a marathon of Pokemon anime
news reports and a couple of gags so the
million dollar question really is is
this even a game I mean there’s already
DVDs or the Pokemon anime why charge us
$50 yes $50 but what is a glorified TV
anthology you know what we’re just gonna
stick to the main games thanks
