I was playing Final Fantasy VII and after almost 70 hours i was able to reach the end of the game with all side-quest I could find by my own finished, decent levels and having defeated one of the strongest bosses in the game, the ruby weapon. I was going to the lair of the last boss when my mom remembered she had forgotten some shopping so I went with her because she needed help with some of the bags. I turned off the play and went with her. When I returned I couldn't believe what I was looking at.
My aunt had come with her twins and Sasha had my memory card on her mouth. I was a seventeen years old boy/man looking with total hatred to a three years old little girl. I can assure you I tested everything but that memory card was not only bitten and wet it was completely dead. 70 hours, several side-quests and many master materias were forever gone. I know you might think its not a mistake I've made but after a few days I realized it was better to hate myself for not taking good care of that memory card than blame my little cousin.
But to be honest I still hold some bad thoughts to her.

The cat was here,

I just found my old copy of Pokemon Red, the first one I ever played and it reminded me of another dumb mistake... After the Fushia (6th) gym you needed to get into the psychic place (was it Saffron?). There were 4 entrances but the guards would never let me in. I couldn't figure out how to get by them. I stopped playing the game for a few weeks when my cousin showed me how to get by the guards... Anyone remember? --- you had to go and buy a beverage (Water, Soda, or Lemonade) and bring it to one of the guards. After that they would all let you pass.... How was I supposed to know 😕 I didn't even know that those items existed in the game...

Seems sensible. You need to get by someone, and they're complaining of thirst. You solve his problem, he solves yours. Quid pro quo. Though maybe I've become so used to fetch quests that they just seem obvious to me.

isn't there a part some where you hav to get a pokemon to move out of the way on a plank in the water or something... well anyway i wander around for maybe 3 hours.trying to find out how to get it out of the way. 😔 Somehow i got a flute(can't remember)from a person in building that was right in front of me the whole time and it moved.., 🙁

I guess you can hi-jack someones idea, but you'll never understand their plan for its success.
.

i went through the whole game of luminous arc without knowing how to make a lvl 2(or 3) flash drive so by then i had killed every boss but the final withoutknowing.then when i beat the game(of course)i forgot to save and now i must fight the final boss again..>.> 😎

So basically to vanquish the world of evil you must have mega sex with a girl then your soul is taken...yes

Pokemon(original Red and Blue): I spent hours going through the game over and over to get all 150 pokemon. Then I went to that guy that said he had something "special" for me when I catch all 150. So then I went to him, and all that S.O.B said was "Congratulations".

FFX: Didn't realize that you need the destruction spheres from every temple to unlock the hidden Aeon until I got to the spot to unlock him. >.>

World of Warcraft: My warrior was really well equipped. A new guy came to the guild, and I wanted to be nice. So I let him have a piece of equipment that dropped which I waited for weeks on. Next day, he left the guild for a new one. I wanted to strangle him. WoW is a way of life! Thank god I quit though, rofl.

Gears of War 2: All my teammates died. It was 5v1, the score for each team were tied at 4-4. I took out 4 guys and ended up rolling into the last guy's chainsaw like a noob. Oh yeah... fun times...

I've done a lot of mistakes...but the biggest?
one that I can remember is: that I put my hand in a working blender 😀

Is that from a game?

no. I just put my hand in it because I thought that it was off 😐

This thread is for dumbest thing you did in a video game. 🤣

seen those guys in wow a few times in the guild i was in and after that they had to transfer servers because messing with the oldest, and maybe most respected, guild on the server.

In harsh times, the strongest currency is cooperation.

I was playing Twilight Princess, and I don't remember where exactly I was, but there was a part where you had to do something while hanging from the ceiling.
It was a real hassle to get to the ceiling, and I finally made it up there, and, not realizing I had to do something, dropped off.
After realizing I had to do something, I made it to the ceiling again, and really did not want to have to go through all of what I did again... I accidentally hit the A button and plummeted downward.
I finally got it on the third try... It was so repetitive and annoying...

FF8. Somehow I was never able to collect enough raw materials to upgrade the weapons. This was before I found out how to increase their droprates. Ended up playing through the game with only the starter weapons.

I was playing Final Fantasy War of the Lions...and with the first battle after the tutorial one, I didn't know I had more than 1 character, so I kept going into battle with the main character and his friend.
Until I gave up went back, found the others and kicked myself.

And I remember getting to Celestia in Tale of Eternia and then saving over it by accident 🤢

It was actually more of a glitch in the game itself, but I went until the fifth day of the third week with just five pins of The World Ends With You because the game fucked itself and wouldn't let me buy the space for the last pin. I restarted the game but I haven't played it in awhile.

Sarcasm just doesn't work over the internet.

I did the exact same thing!

And you guys know how on PS3 you can have different accounts? Well I was playing on my account and had played half way into a game but then later my brother logged into his and I didn't know, so I start up the game and it said no saved game, I was like WTH and started over. I realized my mistake two days later.

Your face is dented.

Started the a game of Zelda, and named the main character Zelda

lol ! I did that too when i was like 7. i got the original gameboy and Zelda game with the windfish....um yeah, named him "Zelda" and thought that that was Link's name up until I played OoT when i was about 9.

Also... just recently I was playing Devil May Cry 4. In the mission after you beat Agnus for the first time (as Nero), when you extend a bridge into a waterfall and unlock a forrest area, I got lost and ran accross the entire game map to the start in an attempt to find the mission exit. (in most missions you can back to the opera house which is the start of the game).

omg! i did that too! i spent like 3 hours trying to figure out where the hell to go. i completely forgot about the waterfall path for some insane reason.

I make lots of mistakes in fighting games.

If you take damage in a fighting game, that's construed as making a mistake. Especially in Tekken, because if you aren't careful, you get put into a potentially life-ending juggle.
