Trio The Punch: Never Forget Me...

Trio The Punch: Never Forget Me... is an Arcade game released in 1990 by Data East. In the game you pick from three characters (a ninja, a brawler and a barbarian) and cross various short stages where you must defeat enemies and pick up the hearts they drop to face the stage boss.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) Repetitive gameplay. You only walk left to right while killing enemies for the entire game.
 * 2) Sloppy collision detection, which coupled with the character's short attack range can make the game quite frustrating.
 * 3) Bad platforming.
 * 4) After each stage you get a roulette where you can power up or down, which seems to be totally random.
 * 5) There never seems to be an objective or any cohesion in the game.
 * 6) Repetitive (if catchy) music. Each character has his own theme, which loops indefinitely through the entire game until you change to another character.
 * 7) The game may sometimes glitch and leave your character stuck, forcing the player to reset the game.

Trivia

 * According to the Japanese arcade game magazine Arcadia, the game was originally planned as a sugoroku game titled "TV Sugoroku Trio The Punch", until its content was changed during production into its released form.
