Samples:
Wild Woody
I just figured out my porn star name.


Platform : Sega CD
Publisher : Sega
Year : 1995

Wild Woody was also the the star of this game, a bright yellow No. 2 pencil that threw sticks of dynamite. Welcome to the mascot graveyard.

Spanky's Quest
To save Alfalfa?


Platform : SNES
Publisher : Natsume
Year : 1992

See, Spanky is a monkey. Spanky the monkey. SPANK THE MONKEY. Hey thanks, you'rea great crowd!

Mine goes to...

"Sticky Balls" on the Gizmondo system. Seriously.

And why the hell is "Tech Romancer" on there? Not a bad name given the content.
 
"Twin Eagle: Revenge Joe's Brother" is - by far - the greatest name I've ever seen.
 
A few that I really don't understand why they made the list:

Silhouette Mirage
Klonoa
If It Moves, Shoot It! - never heard of this before, but I actually REALLY like that title :p

However, the truly ironic thing is that their #1 choice was the first game that popped into my mind when I read the subject - Irritating Stick. Of course, if you've ever played the game then you know that they couldn't have possibly come up with a more appropriate title. Yeesh.
 
They missed two big ones.

The PSX game Ballz and the DC game Seaman.

I don't know how many time when I worked at Gamestop people moved the cases of these two games next to each other.

I'd have to say it's the second half of Silhouette Mirage that makes its name retarded--Reprogramable Hope?
 
What's wrong with Klonoa: other than the fact that it's produced two (not counting the handheld versions) of THE best platforming games that no one has played? That's why I hunted down the PS2 version and found it and will NEVER sell it...
 
Max Payne is strangely absent. The name is so rediculously cheesy. No One Can Stop Mr. Domino sounds pretty creepy though. I kinda like it.

Their argument is that Klonoa sounds like an STD. X-Play did this as well. I don't really see it.
 
Normy's Beach Babe-o-Rama
No Fear Downhill Mountain Bike Racing
Gravity Games: Bike - Street, Vert, Dirt
Chubby Cherub
Whomp 'Em
Heiyankyo Alien
Wally Bear and the NO! Gang
Final Fantasy X-2 (being the tenth "final" fantasy is bad enough, but being its sequel is far worse)
 
[quote name='ananag112']Spanky's Quest gets my vote. I still have this game. I traded Earthbound and Megaman Soccer for it :(.[/quote]

Oh dear God.
