So Bad It's Brilliant

I really think it boils down to enjoyment being equated with quality, when that isn't necessarily the case. For example, I have a hella-lot of fun with the Dynasty Warriors games, but from a purely critical standpoint, they're poorly balanced, characterization and story waivers from 'pretty good' to 'atrocious' even in the same game, and almost every game has one mechanic that reeks of grindy bullshit. Despite this, I think DW as a whole is really fun.

God Hand is a good example of this type of game.

Deadly Premonition. So definitely a B-Game, but oh so good.

Otherwise... Wait, while I'm thinking it. Are there actually people who didn't realize that Lollipop chainsaw was a joke?

It's kind of hard to figure out which Japanese softcore-porn game that oversexualises women is a parody and which one isn't. Come on, that Dead or Alive volleyball game even had "1-hand control mode", not to mention Dragon's Crown's... everything.
