What's the video game equivelent of Spongebob?

>No other place ive been to actually hates spongebob
Yea Forums seems really hyped for Rehydrated though.

>me don't like = reddit
>me see thing is popular = reddit

Yea Forums is naturally contrarian

Better question: Who is the Michael Jordan of video games?

>Late 90s series that's still putting out games/episodes for better or worse (generally worse)
>Incredibly influential and highly-praised when it was in its prime; many consider it their favorite to this day
>Extremely potent meme fuel; tons and tons of memes based on the series exist, and this stems from unique and quotable dialogue
>After the departure of the creator from the series for good, the rightsholder greenlights a wildly different spinoff that fans were against even on a conceptual level
It's Metal Gear Solid.

>Great, but not amazing as the rest of the world thinks they are in the early seasons
>Souless garbage in the later seasons, only those who grew up on the series and never let go of their love for it defend it
The Fighting Game and RPG genres

CPU Vert?????
Green Heart?????

Something that peaked relatively early and has been shit for years? Halo.

mario

It's absolutely NOT sonic. Spongebob actually aged well and stayed relevant much longer.

This, the Spongebob movie was the canonical end to the Series. Just like how MGS2 was supposed to be the end to the MGS timeline.

Michael Jordan = Ocarina of Time
Kobe Bryant = Final Fantasy VII
Lebron James = Breath of the Wild

This also applies for Pokemon as well

Has to be Pokemon.

Yea Forums used to post Spongebob shit all the time. Then reddit, being the faggoty, tryhard little brother, decided to do the same thing but in terribly unfunny reddit humor to where is true

FF7 is the Allen Iverson, universally argued as one of the 10 best ever during it's short prime. But the media later turns on it & is desperate to shit on it whenever possible which Normalfags sadly decided to parrot & accept as fact

Spyro the Dragon
>Incredible strong start for early installments
>After original creators leave, goes down a bunch of lesser paths while not losing popularity (Skylanders made bank)
>experiences a resurgence that while not at the originals’ quality, is still unarguably a step in the right direction

Doesn’t tom kenny voice spyro?

>Implying the genesis games didn't age well

Around what point would you guys say the contrarianism started/peaked then? It just seems wrong going from just casually postin SB as a picture to having some heavy breathing sheep yell at you for being a brain damaged reddit zoomer goblin. I feel like I missed something.

Contrarianism has been a pretty permanent feature here on Yea Forums for at least the past like 4 years. Sometimes people adopt formally common opinions because people spent so long having the "unpoplar" one. Just look at how so many are saying Fallout NV is worse than Fallout 3. Now I love Fallout 3, but it's just a much smaller game than NV. You know what I mean

bubsy

Ehh. Many people hated him from the start, but Spogebob was actually good tv for a while

I honestly dont know what you guys are talking about, as recently as a week or two ago I still see nothing but love for spongebob especially in the wake of rehydrated. Yea Forums is contrarian about a lot of things but spongebob isn't a victim
