Is it Mega Man? I would've said Earthbound, but that game was rereleased recently so Nintendo cares somewhat.

 

[Snot Rocket]

Aliens

 

[revolverjgw]

Syphon Filter

 

[GK86]

Shenmue.

 

[brandonh83]

Zelda, Mario, Silent Hill, Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Uncharted, Metroid, Kirby, Shenmue, Sonic

 

[Zalman]

Sonic

 

[bernardobri]

I'd say western Earthbound fans.

 

[smr00]

Sonic

Should of been first post.

No other fanbase even comes close.

 

[Slixshot]

League and Dota. Treated the worst by one another

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Mega Man. Sonic gets OK to good games every so often.

 

[Roshin]

Fans of Star Wars have had it kinda rough.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Sakura Wars.

 

[abolisher6812]

I am going to say Madden.

 

[Glass Rebel]

It's definitely Mega Man.

Getting new, shitty releases in your favourite franchise is one thing.

Getting no entries in your favourite franchise is another.

But being constantly teased about games that are cancelled at every occasion is just on a completely different level.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Dino Crisis fans.

We got 3 and a half games....and the 3rd game we still haven't gotten an apology for.

 

[Bauhaus]

Team Fortress 2

 

[Snot Rocket]

Should of been first post.

No other fanbase even comes close.

Nah, Sonic fans at least get decent games every other year. Maybe no Mario level, but decent. .despite hyperbole. Aliens fans on the whole have been shown we have no respect.

 

[AlexMeloche]

F-Zero? ;_;

 

[MemoryHumanity]

Zelda, Mario, Silent Hill, Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Uncharted, Metroid, Kirby, Shenmue, Sonic

Not reeeeaaaaally...

 

[Creamium]

Mega Man

 

[Salex_]

Viewtiful Joe

 

[dancingphlower]

Devil May Cry, at least leading up to the release of DmC.

 

[Christhor]

Kingdom Hearts fans. All they've wanted since 2006 is a direct sequel to KH2, but all we get are more spin offs.

 

[Zalman]

Mega Man. Sonic gets OK to good games every so often.

Yeah, Sonic is slowly getting better, but man, everything released between Heroes and Unleashed was pure garbage (not counting the handheld games.)

 

[Parallax]

Dino Crisis fans.

We got 3 and a half games....and the 3rd game we still haven't gotten an apology for.

2 and a half. There is no third game.

 

[Gormless Noodle]

Klonoa

Pls Namco



Pls

Spoiler

pls

 

[brandonh83]

Not reeeeaaaaally...

Oh you'd think so.

 

[Nibel]

Sonic fans get games, Mega Man fans are at least being trolled

Shenmue fans get NOTHING for years

 

[SafeinSound]

Recently? Final Fantasy.

 

[BrhysH]

Kotor. We asked for Kotor III and we got Kotor 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10...etc made into a Wow clone MMO.

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six.

 

[Mdot]

Considering the issues, Battlefield?

 

[Mike Works]

Should of been first post.

Should have.

 

[malfcn]

Judgment was barely supported. But Mega Man probably takes the cake.

 

[CheDominik]

Crash Bandicoot? Crash Bandicoot!

I won't even dare to look at the "evolution" of Crash...

 

[KHlover]

MegaMan is a pretty safe answer

 

[Christhor]

Not reeeeaaaaally...

Silent Hill definitely qualifies. Sure there's still coming games out in the franchise, but given the quality of those titles, that's not really a good thing.

 

[BolognaSoup]

SimCity

Nothing new for 10 years and then EA releases one of the worst products in gaming's history.

 

[unbias]

US PSO fans...

 

[CertifiedFP]

Valkyria Chronicles.

Hands. Down.

 

[L1NETT]

Timesplitters

Can't wait for Homefront 2 Crytek, really hope that goes well for you.

 

[CharmingCharlie]

I would say PC GTA fans, they wait months for the game to come to the PC and then get treated with a shitty port that barely can be categorised as an Alpha build. Then they get gaming breaking patches up to a point where Rockstar just gives up.

 

[Steel]

Fans of Star Wars have had it kinda rough.

Star wars had a better run than most gaming communities though.

I'm not really a huge Tales fan myself, but they definitely have had it rough in the west(Though it seems to be getting slightly better for them).

Honorable mention to one of my favorite Genres: The Entire Mech Genre. Mechwarrior Online is an abomination of F2P ideologies($500 if you want a clan mech), and there hasn't been a decent entry in the genre for years....

Edit:

SimCity

Nothing new for 10 years and then EA releases one of the worst products in gaming's history.

This too deserves to be way up the list....

 

[Varjet]

Remember Mega Man Legends 3, guys?

 

[Zantetsuken88]

Zelda, Mario, Silent Hill, Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Uncharted, Metroid, Kirby, Shenmue, Sonic

We ought to be giving reasons really.

As a Final Fantasy fan, I really don't feel like I've been treated badly. I still enjoy the new mainline titles. Have there been some questionable decisions?

Spoiler

ATB

Sure. But I do think to some extent the fanbase seems to carry around this sense of entitlement that would only be placated by square creating numerous clones of FF7...

As for Sonic - this one I agree with. I loved the Mega Drive (Genesis) games and the cartoon series (The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog) and everything since then seems to have been a total bastardisation of everything Sonic was. And who the hell is Eggman? It's Robotnik.

 

[Dyne]

Shenmue. The only thing they did for the fans was release an Xbox version of the sequel that didn't even come to North America, and I'm pretty sure that was MS-funded. Literally no news since the Shenmue Online abortion.

Release some goddamn novels or something, Sega.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Remember Mega Man Legends 3, guys?

Remember Viewtiful Joe 3?

Yeah, me neither

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Mega Man

 

[Emwitus]

Knicks fans. Signed bargs, amare, Jr and melo to ridiculously large contracts to the disarray of there fans...

How can you not feel sorry for them?

EDIT: Oh wai...

Wrong thread.

 

[Jawmuncher]

2 and a half. There is no third game.

True Enough.
