NINTENDO GAMES THAT RUINED FRIENDSHIPS

"Over the years, the best thing about owning a console made by Nintendo is that they always had great party games, games you loved to play with your friends. It's probably the one thing they did better than any other system. However, every now and then, there would come along a Nintendo game that you took a little too seriously. With that in mind, I'd like to present you with the Top 5 Nintendo games that made you hate your friends."

Top 5 Nintendo Games That Ruined Friendships

''You all remember getting so angry at your friends while playing Super Smash Bros, but that wasn't the only game that altered BFFs at all. Nintendo had plenty of titles to mess up relationships.''

Top 5 Competitive Nintendo Games

 * 1) Goldeneye 007. While it introduced many to multiplayer FPSs, its "dark side" involved players who camped the body armor for rounds at a time with a Moonraker laser rifle, as well as those who would trap every weapon and ammunition crate with proximity mines.
 * 2) Super Smash Bros. Brawl. There are plenty of characters with arguably overpowered mechanics or attributes or how once during every Smash Bros. session someone is going to be screamed at for playing as a "goddamn noob character". Lasercorn also promises the presence of physical violence should someone who should be dead winds up with Hammer.
 * 3) Mario Kart 64. Any Mario Kart game is viable (mainly because of the blue shell), but 64 takes the cake because the lack of online play means multiplayers are in the same room. Lasercorn notes that there is no worse feeling than going from three balloons to none because of someone waiting to ambush another with Triple Red Shells.
 * 4) Super Bomberman. Lasercorn claims that this game that first introduced him to the idea of turning gamer rage onto friends, what with powerups like Full Fire, which increases the bomb blast radius to maximum (i.e. entire screen) and "kick wars", which involve kicking a bomb back and forth until one of them is killed by it.
 * 5) Mario Party 8. Lasercorn, who admits he has two friends that refuse to visit his apartment due to arguments that stemmed from this game, considers this game the most viable entry of the Mario Party series because of minigame teammate randomization and the ability to steal stars via Duelo Candy.
