I've owned Chameleon Twist 2 for a little more than a decade and I still haven't beaten it, mainly because it's one of the few Nintendo 64 games that requires a memory card, which I lack. Meaning I would have to beat it in one sitting, which is impossible. And I don't really think beating it is that important because it's not like there's some huge story I'm missing out on.

I remember northern crater now actually, that area always spooked me out so I also went around the world a few more times before delving in!

I owned Impossible Creatures for roughly twelve years before I got around to completing the story mode (and I've put thousands and thousands of hours into the game throughout all those years).

I did that the first time around owning FFVII. I sold it without ever beating it. The second time owning FFVII I decided to complete it. I thought that leaving things unfinished wasn't a very good thing to do in life, so I tried to start finishing things that I started.

Skipping levels doesn't count as beating the game ;)

LoZ: Link to the Past, started it playing it as first game on gameboy back in '97 which was roughly 19 years ago, never got out the first area, probably never will.

That honor goes to a game i like to call Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, got it in 2006 never quite got the hang of it if until after my PS2 died in 2012, got the Jak & Daxter Collection for PS3 on release and to date still haven't beaten it, though i am much closer than i was on the PS2 file.

ALTTP wasn't on the game boy in '97. you're probably thinking of link's awakening.

ALTTP came out on the game boy advance in 2002, with four swords.

I've also had Metroid Fusion for years and I didn't even get halfway through it! I recently sold it.

I can't play any of the online games. Oh well. I think I prefer single player games anyway [except for Smash Bros.].

I can somewhat relate especially MMORPG games. Too much going on for me.
Oooh Smash Bros! I love that game. Wasn't there a Wii U version of the game?

^Yep. I have the Wii one [Brawl] and the 3DS one [Smash 4]. My best characters to use are Zero Suit Samus, Marth, Zelda/Sheik, Robin, Corrin, and Cloud.
