Your earliest memory of major bugs in a game ?

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper on GBA is a technical marvel

Not sure if you're aware, but there's a really sad story with this. It is a technical marvel, along with its forbear, Street Fighter Alpha for GBC, which was also by Crawfish Interactive.

However Crawfish delivered SF Alpha 3 slightly late to Capcom, and Capcom withheld their payments, as they were contractually able to do... But by doing so, they caused Crawfish to go bankrupt. As a result the creators never received their final payout or the royalties from the sales of a highly regarded and successful game, and Capcom pocketed all the cash.

I'm more than aware of how Crawfish Interactive were screwed over payment for SFA3U by Capcom on a contractual technicality. I'm pretty sure that I've posted about it more often on this forum than anybody - the forum search function would confirm this!

Yet again though, for anybody unaware, the full story: https://www.nintendolife.com/news/20..._alpha_3_upper

I remember buying Sword Of Vermillion on Mega Drive and I put hours and hours in to it. I can't recall exactly what happened but the game crashed and then my saved game just wouldn't load. I think it's why to this day I've completely refused to get in to any game of that type, scarred for life!

I have never met anyone else who played the game at the time it came out. I had the Genesis version which came with a full colour guide for some reason? Also it had bits like, just walk through those seemingly solid trees. How would someone guess that???
