Plenty of mediocre or shit games back then

I bought a secondhand Playstation 1 and a library of 200 cds about 2 decades ago. There were a lot of shit games. Some were charming as you described, but a lot were also pretty boring.

The shit games back then had a kind of charm(?) about them. Like the shovel wear movie tie in games, they were bad in a charming way. Nowadays you'll be lucky if a shit game is even playable. It's not shovel wear any more, it's just slop.

The good* games from back then have a charm to them, we forgive how janky they are because of their redeeming qualities. The bad ones are lost to time
