What does everyone think of LJN games?

It's the worst video game company ever! they made only a few decent ones like that Surfing Gorilla game, the Maximum Carnage SNES game and of course JAWS for NES. But the rest of their games stink badly like X-Men for NES, Spider-Man games for NES, Friday The 13th for NES, Terminator 2 for NES, The Karate Kid for NES, Back to the Future Trilogy games for NES, Bill and Ted's Excellent Game for NES, Beetlejuice for NES, and other atrocities.
 
LJN's games are a constant source of new material for the Angry Video Game Nerd too. He's done loads of the games you mention.
 
LJN looks to be a publisher... so they haven't made a lot of bad games, they've published a lot of bad games...

Nope, they did indeed develop games for the NES (and other systems). They were a division of Acclaim, because Nintendo only let each company produce so many games a year, and some companies got around this by creating holding companies to publish additional titles.

But LJN was notorious for making utterly awful shovelware. I don't know that I ever played a good LJN game.
