Ok so one day I turn on my wii and booted up megaman 2 and was playing on normal. I decided to do metal man's stage and was doing fine, then I got to metal man with full hp (and yes I did take a few hits and got my hp back up but that's not the point). I started fighting metal man and was doing well and not taking any hits, funny thing is I wasn't timing my jumps I was just getting lucky. I take a quick look at metal man's hp to see how low it was and it was low, very low and I thought I was about to beat a robot master without taking a hit for the first time and guess what happen? I got hit...

Now what's you most epic fail in a video game?

Ps: I thought this was a epic fail so if its not than deal with it.
 
Every time I try to play any Mega Man game other than 9 or 10. So much failure.
 
Running into a bottomless pit without even bothering to jump over it in Super Mario 3D Land..

Doing the same thing... On Super Paper Mario with no reasonable explanation.

And the whole curse of "Going-the-right-way-but-not-really".

I have some impressive fails and stuff-ups everyday I play video games. Most of it's funny, and some of it's frustrating..... Very frustrating.
 
I actually had my most epic fail moment today. I like to call it Stone Cyclone Galaxy.

I spent half an hour and at least 30 lives doing it. I screaming at my tv because I kept falling into a black hole being being crushed by Tox Boxes. It was the worst thing ever. I was in rage tears.
 
When I play MK7 I can fail a lot sometimes. Either that or I am very unlucky. Ex:

Recently I was in a race at Music Park. There is one section where you have to jump over a hole by jumping off a drum. 2 times I had made it to first or second and got hit by a shell while jumping on the drum and fell into the hole. On the final lap I had made it up to 3rd place. There was no way I was catching up to the guy in 1st so I was just trying to hold my position. Then a blue shell flew past me knocking me over, directly followed by a red shell, and the guy in last thought it would be hilarious to hit me with his star power while he passed me. To top it off I ended u getting a golden mushroom and when I started gaining on everybody my kart decided it would lose all traction with the ground and it flew right off the coarse. Probably one of my

unluckiest races ever -_____-......
 
Yeah, I'd like to think we've all had unlucky races like that. Then again it may just be my lack of skill that has caused me so much hardship in MK7

The latest thing I can think of was in DKC3. I was told by a bear to go around two stones and "make eight" two times. So I went off from the level map, into the overworld map, and started circling these two stones in the four stone formation, wondering why the hell my crap wasn't working. Spent about 5 minutes doing this.

Then as I went back to this bear, frustrated as all hell, to talk to him again, he said the same thing about two stones and making eight. I leave him, and then on the level map, notice two stones. I then realise those were the stones he was talking about, and the other stones I was looking at were an entirely different thing.

EDIT: Just thought of a better one. Was playing Metroid Prime Hunters for DS (first Metroid game by the way) and was at the first level, Celestial Archives. Took me 30 minutes to figure out what to do in the main hub area (which was to shoot a door and walk through it). I just couldn't see the door, even though it's probably the first thing you can see when you exit the ship.
