Not sure if this is a topic that's been covered before but I've been playing Fist of the North Star/Last Battle on the Mega Drive and it's made me think about other games that I like that are generally regarded as terrible.
Last Battle is pretty poor, but it holds a special place in my heart because I bought it at a time when the SNES was getting its exclusive conversion of my favourite coin-op Final Fight, and I was desperate for something similar on the MD...while Last Battle wasn't exactly the same I guess the diliberately similar Western title (Last Battle...Final Fight...ahem) made me think it might be.
The game is basic and stupidly hard, but I love it all the same. Lovely music too.
Another game I love is Dangerous Seed. This was slagged off to high heaven when it was released but I still enjoy playing it. Great boxart, too.
