The Worst Nintendo Game Every Year Of The Decade According To Metacritic

For the past decade, Nintendo has released some great games... and then there are these ones. THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY

2013 Pokémon Rumble U 49

Via DarkStation Does anyone actually enjoy the Rumble games? Because certainly no critics ever have. The games are incredibly simple, and see toy-like Pokémon fighting waves upon waves of enemies, with not much to it than that. All of the games are pretty base level, and the series' move to mobile really just cements that fact. There's some pretty good reason this was the lowest-ranked Nintendo game of the year.

2014 Chibi-Robo Photo Finder 49

Chibi-Robo! Photo Finder is the fourth game in the series about the robot that Nintendo once tweeted a picture of on fire in order to signal a Nintendo Direct. From the Metacritic reviews, people were pretty polarized on this one. It seems to just be somewhat empty, like a worse Spirit Camera. It uses the 3DS camera and is filled with some pretty boring minigames. That's a glowing review right there.

2015 Devil s Third 43

Via: amazon.com Now what wasn't a polarizing game was Devil's Third. That one was just bad. While the multiplayer was praised here and there, the main consensus is that Devil's Third has problems gameplay-wise, story-wise, and performance-wise. You know, the three least important areas of any video game. Devil's Third was the Wii U exclusive that no one needed. It was basically unnecessary and didn't do anything for anybody. Sounds a bit like the console it was made for, huh?

2016 Mario & Sonic At The Rio 2016 Olympic Games 3DS 60

While the Wii U version of the game faired pretty well, the 3DS's Mario and Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympics game did not. While the game did manage to score a 60 (not bad for the worst game of the year), the consensus is that there are only a paltry 14 minigames, and not all of them are too fun or interesting. The story isn't great, and not every character can perform in every event, which just doesn't really sit right. The game is a fun time if you really need to see Silver the Hedgehog going in on some gymnastics, but it's not a necessary buy for any fan.

2017 1-2 Switch 58

vistapointe.net The game that really should have been a pack-in title is here with a score of 58. 1-2 Switch was the other launch game for the Nintendo Switch, and made use of the Joy-Con's various functions in order to create some interesting minigames for players to get in on. Unfortunately, this was a full-priced, $60 game. Nope. The Switch's Wii Sports should have been a pack-in, and it wasn't. If it had been, we might have seen this title in a very different light than how it's looked at nowadays.

2018 Pokémon Quest 62

via: Variety.com Boring mobile app featuring the original 151, but make it Minecraft. That's Pokémon Quest. The spin-off title is completely unimaginative, and features very little gameplay to get into. Essentially, your goal is to get other Pokémon to come join your camp that you can decorate however you'd like. This was a title designed to be playable on both the Switch and mobile devices, so you're really not working with anything too great here.

2019 Dr Mario World 58

via: Engadget The iOS and Android , Dr. Mario World, takes the cake for the worst 2019 game from Nintendo. The app is freemium in the worst way possible, and does everything that it possibly can in order to take your money from you. The core Dr. Mario gameplay is there, sure, but this is just not the best place to enjoy it. There's some cool changes to the formula here and there, but not enough to spend your time and money on.
