Many many years of gaming brings many joys and delights..but also massive headaches and anger that wants you to punch through a brick wall.Soul Calibur 3...I'm not sure how many times I faced a powerhouse of a level 60 character and took him down to little health and as I was still at full health somehow managed to find my character laying on the ground at the end of the match.Also at times I'd be one or two hits away from winning a fight and run and slide or jump over the opponent straight out of the ring and lose because of it.Any Zelda games...Going into a boss fight with half health and finding out I don't have any fairies to revive myself with. Running out of magic and not having magic to refill with. Football games...Leading the other team by a touchdown or more and throwing the ball straight to the other team. Making a major comeback from behind and end up blowing the game anyway.. >:laugh:Hockey games...How many times I've had control of the goalie and skated a little too far out of the net and passed the puck straight to the other team.That's all I can think of for now.

My most embarrassing moment playing a game was in SSBM, me and two other people were playing to see who was the best, I had one life and my friends had three each, somehow I managed to survive until each of us had one life. One of my friends tried to hit me from the screen but I recovered with 126% damage, then when my other friend killed him, I pressed the control the wrong way and fell off a cliff 
then after realizing I killed myself, I banged my head against the wall (I could've killed my friend, she had 187%) This one isn't embarrassing, but just plain stupid. I was playing Fire Emblem, and then my game erased itself, when I tried to start a new file it wouldn't save, so I cried (I was about 9 years old back then) the next hour when I turned on my Fire Emblem game, all the data mysteriously came back I was so happy. Now about one week ago, the same thing happened. My data erased, I got all the supports and music and was on the last hard mode final boss, I decided to wait a few hours. I turned my game on and made a new file, and then when I turned my gameboy off and back on, the new file data was saved so my game was permanently erased 
. I felt so stupid when I wasted all that time getting supports and levels

This is a true story and its about my neighbor.His house was robbed of many things right infront of him.He was playing GBA the whole time.A lot of us make a mistake in video games. You make a wrong turn, you choose the wrong weapon, you challenge an enemy that you should have run from. We all do it. But have you ever made an embarrassing mistake that had you shaking what the hell you were thinking? Or at least confused you as to why you were that confused?My case: While playing Final Fantasy 3, I had gotten to the river-rafting trip with Baron, Sabin, Edgar and Terra, which is fairly early. However, at the end of this trip, you run into an octopus by the name of Ultros. Well, Ultros' starts the battle by saying "GAME OVER". For some reason, I was confused and frustrated, so I thought I had to reset my game.I did this about three times, thinking I had to somehow avoid the confrontation with Ultros. It was only the fourth time when I'd been sighing with disgust that I noticed that the squid was just being pompous.I still can't believe I wasted all that time with that stupid squid.

I'd have to say that it was when I opened a random save state on CT and I was back in the cathedral (right after you get frog the first time.) I was SO pissed because I had three files, 4 endings, and lots of hours of my life! and I couldn't undo it!I've almost worked up to that greatness again. Plus, I got the DDT ending!

My most embarrassing moment playing a video game was when I was a naive and innocent little girl trying to be tough. I put in a copy of some Resident Evil game for the 64.... Needless to say, I didn't come anywhere near N64 for like, 2 weeks.

Pokémon Silver: Not knowing how to save a game (until months later), resulting in the loss of precious data.Wii demo: There was this Wii demo in a mall nearby my home, and I decided to go to it. We had to do these absurd actions just to get a bird flying. Even though I did these actions, I still couldn't get the bird to fly at the right height.Another embarrassing, but funny moment - although not mine - is when a guy tried to open a door in a game with the nunchuck, but either failed, or closed the door right back. I didn't know it was possible to have such a hard time just trying to open a door.

Mine would be all those "cool defining" times when I play Tony Hawk which I can beat a lot of my friends at (not the best in the world obviously, but I have too much time clearly!) and everyones going wow its gonna be x million points and then I try a really poserish trick or jump and fall at an easy bit. It's always embarassing if you gloat...Though once I had a friend that said they'd never played it so I thought I'd be an idiot and beat them (I've since learnt to be humble lol!) and they turned out to be ten times better than me, the liar...

Mine would have to b sonic 3 and knuckles at the carnival night stage. on that red cylinder i kept jumping and using spin dash, but still couldn't get through, my older bro was in the room(who got through the part), I asked him to help me, but he wouldn't, he just kept laughing at me, and telling me that it took him a while 2. so i kept jumping and jumping till i figured out that i was supposed 2 just press up &down...after that, i looked down in shame...
