Video game rage stories?

[AlanJohn]

When I finished downloading nesDS, I decided to play Earthbound for the first time.
I went in to it, for about an hour, then my DSi just randomly shuts itself off.
But then, I decided to play it again, and went in for about 3 hours or so, I then "saved" and went to sleep.
The next day, I open-up my DSi, and it doesn't find my save file.

...

That exact day, I threw my DSi and r4-pro down from the roof on the ground and burnt it.

You didn't press the "Save SRAM" button in the nesDS menu, did you?

I did.
The thing is, I was using my old 4gb crap micro SD that was corrupted, so everything there kept getting broken (including games as well).

I raged about 15 seconds ago playing Fire Emblem Sacred Stones on my 3DS. One of my Paladins got totally gang banged by everything on screen from every angle because I buggered it up a bit. RAGE. Restart mission. Bring faster team next time so that guy doesn't rob everything out of the chests before I've finished pressing start. Steal that Crest so I can have a fourth Paladin. Have invincible front line of Paladins. Win. No longer need to rage. Play Shinobi. Rage over something totally different.

Other rage stories:

- I broke my original GBA trying to get the final Chaos Emerald on Sonic Advance as I was one ring short due to it playing dirty. If you've ever seen the movie 'Blade' and recognize the line 'Some mother fuckers are always trying to ice skate uphill', that's pretty much what happened to my GBA.

- Shinobi on 3DS makes me cry on a regular basis by shattering my primitive notion that I'm a skilled gamer. I'm on normal difficulty (fuck beginner mode, do it properly or not at all, I say) and so far I'm on level 4 of 8, getting my bitch-ass pwned by a helicopter. It takes me about two days to clear a level, on average. Because the game's so harsh. Although oddly I S ranked a Streetpass map earlier. One beautiful perfect run, nothing even came close to me. The par time for that map is five minutes. I did it in 47 seconds. Hence the S rank for a time bonus of 10 million points.

- I've raged at every Final Fantasy game since X because IMHO opinion they all suck more dick than whorish vacuum cleaners.

- I cracked the black screen guard off my original Gameboy during an extended Killer Instinct session when the game had the audacity to insult me on the congratulations screen. I was only a kid and I've never been overly talented at fighters, so I fight my way through to the end only to be told I'm a pussy and need to try harder difficulties. FUCK YOU.

- Mario Kart pisses me off with the whole blue shell spam and how driving perfectly is less of a factor in winning races than sheer dumb luck on what weapons the CPU draws. What really bothers me is when it's Bowser at the back of the pack, miles behind me, no chance of winning, he still deploys that blue shell. Even though it won't in any way help him. Just to give me the finger. Well then Bowser, how about I return the favour by firing up Mario 64 and hurling your fat arse into a land mine? Or perhaps Smash Bros Melee and wail on you with a hammer? Or maybe I should just stick with tradition, call upon the original Super Mario Bros and dump you into a vat of lava, you helmet smoker.

I was once playing this game I couldn't skip the cutscenes on.

When I had a GBA I got really into this motorbike game (can't remember the name) and got really far but couldn't get passed a certain level. I started getting so frustrated at losing that I headbutted the screen cracking it. I literally cried.

I find it hard to believe not many people have raged at CoD! Anyway I was playing against my friend (splitscreen) with shotguns on some map, I lost a threw my controllar hard on the floor and then full on punched the side a a bookshelf nearly knocking it over! My friend said he thoght I was going to kill him! lol some games can bring out the worse in me!

My girlfriend's brother has a friend at work who chews his 360 controller each time he loses in just about any game, effectively having to buy new controllers each month or two.

No joke. He bites it.

"Wasteland is Harsh". If Minecraft makes you cringe, don't even try Fallout Online.

Reminds me of my first 15 levels on that thing. I have never sweared so often.

My friend broke her DS on a mystery dungeon game. I think pushed her stylus on the the top screen WAAY to hard. Well, it still works if you put the hinges at a certain angle. Also, her WHOLE FAMILY HAS A DS. AND DSi. AND 3DS. They each have thier own.

My sister threw the GameCube controller at the wall and broke part of the control stick and threw her DS down the stairs a lot. (I'm amazed it still works) she had some anger issues when she was little...

I never ragequit before as long as I remember. Maybe because the only games I play are casual, except KH.

I remember watching my friend lose his cool over NFL2003 or something. He got all they way to the superbowl and got hammered. His team lost in a shutout like 0-28. That is the only time i ever saw someone completely destroy a PS2 in front of me. he ripped the controller out of the socket and threw it down the hall, then came back and kicked the PS2 off the stand. He threw it on the ground (tile, mind you) and stomped it into the ground till there were black bits and pieces everywhere.

I was scared for my life.

The next day we tried to return the game at the local gamestop claiming they sold us a scratched copy.

In Rayman: Origins, the secret, final level "Night of the Livid Dead".

"FFFFFFUUUUU" does not express it adequately enough.

Shadow the Hedgehog

I returned it and got Final Fantasy IV Advance and the guide to it.
