Action 52 is a multi-game cartridge and prime example of quantity-over-quality made for the NES in 1991 that sold for the low-low price of just $199, consisting of 52 shitty and poorly programmed games that were spewed out the asses of some teenagers over the course of 3 months. Buying a $199 game cartridge with 52 pirated games crammed into it is a better alternative than buying this game because at least you're not the one being robbed, not that piracy is real theft anyways (but Action 52 sure is!). Of all the irrelevant minigames present in this cringe-worthy collection, none are really worth listing out except for one which Active Enterprises thought was going to be the next big thing and subsequently is where most of the effort went (which isn't at all to say the game is any good, just slightly less worse than all the other garbage spewed onto this cartridge). Complete with a comic book and plans for a whole line of action figures and merchandise, that game was none other The Cheetahmen, a failure of a franchise buttriding off the success of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Most of in-game enemies are characters from the other games of the Action 52 cartridge, including Satan Hosain, a parody of former president of Iraq, Saddam Hussein.
In 1992, Action Enterprises held a competition for a cash prize of $104,000 where a player had to take a picture of a code after they've completed Level 5 of game no. 5, Ooze, but the game always crashed after level 2 due to the game's shitty coding, making this contest actually impossible to win.
The absolute suckitude of this game is not unrecognized, as The National Video Game Museum opened an entire venue dedication to it and its collective faggotry. Just to sell the point, they even have a review by The Angry Video Game Nerd on constant replay. Even Nintendo thought the game was shit and refused to give it the seal of approval when Active Enterprises first tried to publish it.
A commercial advertising Action 52. Somehow the Children's Advertising Review Unit didn't
have a problem with Active Enterprises using deceptive advertising to make the game look this cool.
