I'm having trouble narrowing it down to just one, but if I really had to pick, I would say Street Fighter II. This is the point where fighting-game controls (and to some extent game controls in general) really started to get gratuitously complex. I believe that the impact this has had on gaming has been severe and negative, by encouraging (and in many cases, requiring) some frankly unhealthy play patterns just to master the basics. A lot of people were scared or driven away from gaming because of that, and I believe it can be traced back mostly to the success of this one game.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
