Shit Game

Shit games (クソゲー) is a form of slang for video games seen as so bad that they get called as shit.

Overview

Shit games (クソゲー, kusogē) is a slang term for a poorly made video game. It is said that it first appeared by a comment by Jun Miura about the famicom port of Ikki (Sunsoft, November 1985). However, he did not call Ikki a shitty game because it was a popular game at the time and not interesting, but rather he meant that revolting (what the game is about) is not something one or two people do. Even though Sunsoft was upset by his comments it helped increase the number of copies sold.
