9. Barbie: Groom and Glam Pups
Release year: 2010
Platform: Nintendo DS, Wii; released on 3DS in 2013
How dumb it is: 3DS copies of Barbie: Groom and Glam Pups have sold for thousands of dollars, regrettably, not because the game is good, but because it happens to be considered one of the rarest 3DS games in existence.
I am happy that Groom and Glam Pups has that accolade going for it, because it has very little else. While being an airheaded, but highly paid, Beverly Hills dog trainer is in many ways a dream of mine, Groom and Glam Pups singes it with its stiff animations and lackluster grooming mechanics (you can’t even see your puppy’s fur smoothing out as you brush it!). It cowers in Nintendogs’ tremendous shadow.
