I smashed a game with a hammer last night (share your frustration exploits)

I flung my then best friends copy of Ninja Gaiden through an open window. In the middle of a snowstorm, at night, down a mountain slope. Took me about an hour to locate it again.

Not exactly a fit of rage, but that same friend literally blew up cottage six channel stereo system rated at 200watts per channel by doing exactly what I told him not to do. By running the stereo out from the Sega Genesis/CD to the stereo then maxing the volume on the Genesis and burning out the preamp. At 2AM, I only had about 40 seconds of loud music to wake up and shout at him to turn it down before the stereo smoked. ---smurf--- still owes me money for a new one.

The same person, in a moment of monumental stupidity, attempted to "fix" his NES because the controllers weren't responding the way he wanted. His fix was to disassemble the NES, then proceeded to cut the wires from the controller plug to the PCB with... [pause for effect] a butter knife.

A friend of mine (not the same one) cracked one of my SNES controllers during a SFII bout.

Another friends ---uvula--- step-father threw such a drunken ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- fit one night that he ripped the controllers out of his SNES and chucked them out the window. He did it because I managed to beat him at a game of Super Mario World by flying through the most difficult portions. In his drunken state, I could've walked through the entire game without jumping and still play a better game. My friend and I snuck out before the next morning and hung out for about a week.

Hmm destroyed? Only mice on my PC. But i do remeber that with thick carpet and enough rage, you can bounce a nintendo (NES) controler off the carpet and hit the ceiling. No idea how i did it, luck? The pure rage of beating castlevania and killing Drac to find out the BUGGER is a giant fish and i need to kill him again. I'm pretty sure i never played it again. But I do have the Xbox Live Arcade one on my Xbox.. now if i can just pry myslef away from Actraiser on the Snes, forgot how much fun that one was.

In the original Zelda your sword was HUGE!  It even shot out like a howitzer at full health.  Then, Zelda 2, and Links new pocket knife.  What the hell is that?  And when it shoots out it looks like it's too brittle to do anything!  All through that game I was expecting him to upgrade to something a little more badass but........
Loved the game though!

I started playing through Zelda on the NES last night and that game is 100X the game that Zelda II thinks that it should be.

Had LOADS of fun remembering where all the bombed caves are and the burning bushes.  Way more fun.
Jdurg:
Yeah, to me Zelda II was the bastard child of the series.  It was okay, but not nearly as good as the rest.  The original Zelda, A Link To The Past, and Ocarina of Time are absolutely insane games.  Ocarina of time was awesome and I still play it to this day.  It was also the only Zelda I played where i didn't use a cheat guide to get me through it.
