19 Things We Hyped That Completely Flopped

Remember when you were a kid and your parents told you that you were going to the arcade and then when you actually got there, you found out that the games aren't actually all that good? Well, talking about disappointment.
Similarly, this goes for majority of products out there. Just because you have a great idea doesn't mean it'll be a hit with consumers. A great example of this is the Segway. Here you have a brilliant inventor coming out with what seems to be the next generation of transportation. And yet, it was a complete dud. Perhaps it was the high price. Or maybe it was the lack of interest from general consumers. Either way, all the items on this list share one common trait with the Segway: they're all flops.

#1 Power Glove. It sucked and I'll never forget it. -u/Ekh0es

#2 Google Plus. They made us wait for a very long time with the invite-only feature. People forgot about it when it was released. -u/introvertboyme

#3 The 'Dark Tower' movie with Idris Elba. -u/urchisilver

#4 Sim City 5. Good god what a horrid mess. First week or more of the release you were lucky to play because you could only play it online on their servers that were constantly full. Then once you hit like 50k people in your city the game was uncontrollable. You would literally run out of water and no matter what you did, traffic took the shortest path so constant traffic and thus emergency vehicles couldn't move so everything went to hell fast. -u/InsertBluescreenHere

#5 Google Glass: 'futuristic smart glasses.' -u/SuvenPan

#6 M. Night Shyamalan's 'Avatar' movie. He broke my heart. -u/Suspicious-Elk-3631

#7 The Zune. Larger capacity, color screen, could play movies, and cost less than an iPod. Personally, I think it was an awesome device, but ultimately it failed. :( -u/TSwizzlesNipples

#8 Yandere simulator years ago. -u/grossjuice

#9 When Geraldo Rivera opened Al Capone's vault. -u/miurabucho

#10 'Anthem.' I didn't even find the flying that great. It was kinda fun, but the gunplay was so insanely boring and the world-building was so poorly executed. And holy Christ was the writing trash. I played it with a friend and had low expectations, but it failed to meet even those. -u/NobilisUltima

#11 Second go around of 'Arrested Development.' Deep inside I knew they’d never be able to capture that magic. Still, told myself they could. Narrator: They couldn’t. -u/AreaGuy

#12 Every New Year’s Eve party ever. -u/PollyWentlightly

#13 The PS Vita. I wouldn’t say it was a total flop but it deserved so much more support and a better life than it had. -u/GhostRN

#14 3D TV. -deleted user

#15 'Pacific Rim 2.' What the f*ck was that? -u/Accurate_Western_346

#16 I remember being hyped for the 'Suicide Squad' movie back then and left the cinema severely disappointed. -u/mj-gaia

#17 Having a career. Our whole life built up to this….and it's just mediocre, and NOBODY knows what they are really doing. -u/SnooPandas1674

#18 The Segway. Mind you, it was billed as something that would change mankind. -u/Setthescene

#19 Last season of GOT. -deleted user
