New Super Mario Bros Wii
World 9-5: finally escaped the penguins and spiky guys only to jump into a hole before reaching the flag pole. *cries
World 9-7: finally got past the fire-bros (and super happy at sprinting through them) only to friggin' run off the platform just 1 inch from reaching the flag pole... ughhh... now I have to play this level again... 😔
Not saving and then the game freezes. I was playing GTA3.

In Chronicles of Riddick- Assault on Dark Athena:
For more than half the game I didn't realize Riddick's night-vision eyes could be switched off. So on Aguerra, a planet flooded with sunlight, I got really frustated. 🤢

I was showing my friend, who was totally new to flash games, how to totally own in them and clicked on some random UFO shooting game. I had skipped the instructions, because it was so damn obvious about who you were meant to kill, and I was contently playing... NOT! I had realised that I didn't need to do anything because I was owing the enemy somehow.
Then my friend pointed out that I was actually the one getting owned. I thought I was the enemy and was somehow on auto fire. 🙁
Simply another normal human being...

I stared at an wyvern-type thing in LoZ: Twilight Princess through my bow-and-arrow scope until it attacked me, knocking me off a platform and making me fall to my death. >.> I know better now.
Another Zelda game: I was about to go into the last room in the water temple(Ocarina of Time) only to discover that I missed a room and am now stuck; I can't progress or go backwards to get a stupid key to get to the boss room.
I'm too angry at the game to start ALL OVER to pass the stupid water temple. 🤢
flyff- accidently mistook my rare hp item for my regular hp item and then used up my rare one for nothing...argh I wasted one mil to buy that item..oh well

I hear you say "Why?" Always "Why?" You see things; and you say "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"
Not bashing my in brains when I purchased Velvet Assassin for 50 bucks. That game licked.

The Sims 2 - father got pregnant from his son
Pokemon Platinum - i bought it
Harvest Moon DS - Overwrote the game (9th year)
Pokemon Gold (GBC) - I didn´t notice the tree was actually a Pokemon so i tried to cut it down for 4 hours
Back in the day, when Pokemon Red and Blue were first released in North America I was unable to enter Saffron City for half a year... Didn't realize you actually had to give those guards something to drink --- never even knew about the vending machines in Celedon (sp?) City.
Can you imagine an imaginary menagerie manager imagining managing an imaginary menagerie?
