Action 52

Action 52 was an illegal multicart video game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System and the Sega Genesis System and became one of the biggest video game market ploys in electronic history. Action 52 was a cart of 52 individual games and marketed at the retail price of $199 ($4 per game) but it was revealed that many of the games would crash upon reaching a certain level, were incomplete, and had unimaginable design flaws. The game was based off of a Taiwanese multicart his son owned, and decided to make a legal multicart using college student technicians and ripping or editing music from an Atari ST video game.
One video game was received well, which was a video game entitled, The Cheetahmen, and a sequel was produced but canceled when the unfavorable critique of the game was revealed.
