Added DiffLines:

* NintendoHard: Kinda speaks for itself really. If you die at any time, ''you go straight back to the beginning of the game!'' You will die so many times on the hang-gliding section. The game is ''evil.'' Also, this is a Nintendo game? That's pretty... surprising.

* MoonLogicPuzzle: Tons. Good luck figuring out that you need to dip that piece of paper you get in water when any sane human being would just read it as is.


Added DiffLines:

* StealthParody: Granted it's about as stealthy as a grizzly bear armed with chainsaws crashing a jeep into your living room.


Added DiffLines:

* StylisticSuck: The game is purposely designed to piss off anyone who plays it. It's clear that had the creators genuinely wanted to make a good game they could have.

''Takeshi no Chousenjou'' (Takeshi's Challenge) was a 1986 [[TrollFic troll]] VideoGame on the Famicom, made by Japanese comedian TakeshiKitano, known as ''Beat Takeshi''. The player controls a despondent {{salaryman}} that must go through a lot of tribulations to find great riches.

The game does anything it can to annoy the user, such as making him sing with the second controller's microphone, press a button for hours, [[BossInMookClothing hitting the same enemy thousands of times]]... all while being attacked by hard to avoid enemies. The player can beat people up, get fired and divorced, [[INeedAFreakingDrink drink until he passes out]], and learn new skills.

The game was a big hit on release with 800,000 copies sold and made available in Japan's Virtual Console for the {{Wii}} in 2009. DeceasedCrab has also done a LetsPlay of the game [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvglwFi_OEU here]].
