Action 52

Action 52 is a unlicensed multicart video game compilation developed and published by Active Enterprises for the Nintendo Entertainment System. A Sega Genesis version was developed by FarSight Technologies and released in 1993, and a Super Nintendo Entertainment System was planned, but never released.

The NES version quickly became infamous for its poor quality and functionality, and is considered one of the worst video games of all time. While the Genesis version is widely considered superior, it is still considered of of subpar quality. It is also very rare as its original price was US$199 ($386.50 as of 2019).

Nintendo Entertainment System
The NES version covers a variety of genres, the most common ones being vertical space shooters and platformers. Many of the games are buggy and will likely freeze or softlock. Some descriptions in the manual also don't match the game.

The most notable game on the collection is Ooze, as the developers advertise a challenge stating whoever can be level 5 will get $104,000 ($201,990.72 in 2019). However due to incompatibilities with NES hardware the game will crash after level 3 in Rev A., though it can be played fully on most emulators.

A later version of the game, Rev B. was released. It fixed a few issues and also made it possible to beat Ooze, however the text will not display (it does in Rev. A on emulators).
