Pfft, compared to Mother Brain in Zero Mission, Mecha Ridley was a cakewalk. Seriously, the new Ma Brain was twice as hard as the previous incarnations. Speaking of which, when is she going to return in a new Metroid game? I mean, it'll take some effort to find a way to resurrect her plausibly (or something else, if it's a prequel), but it'd still be cool.

I think Mother Brain would look pretty cool in a Prime, but I also think that reusing old supervillains gets really old.

...Like Ridley? I mean, wasn't Ridley Mother Brain's lackey?

Having an owl drop you to your death after saying you're fat.  That happened to me once on SM64.

That happened to me once in Half-Life, I think.

Being killed by a giant frog that spits bubbles is a pretty bad way to die.
Kinopio is the ultimate video game character! Who else can drive a kart, host parties, play tennis, give good advice and items, and is almost always happy??

Also, being killed by the swarming spawn of a giant frog is a pretty nasty way to go, too.

Any way to die in any Resident Evil game.

Huh, you're right...I noticed that every player death in a RE game is especially nasty, especially the context-sensitive ones where you're impaled or sliced in half or whatnot.

Either by freezing or the power going out.

I recently had an experience that I think is a bad way to die in a video game. On the Rooftop level of Mario vs Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, The final level is so Fricken Hard! If anyone else thought this was too hard, please say it.

You aren't that good, aren't you? I reckon it was pretty easy. Can you stand B1 and B2? I know I can.

Just do one Mini Mario at a time. Let one wait near the gate, and jump when needed.
Yo, I'm Matty Underscore G Thirty-Three!
And I need a freaking clue...

Getting to the final level, then clipping through a wall or floor and dying.

Worst Way To Kill Something In A Video Game

  Not noticing that a wild Pokémon is "shiny" and simply 1-hitting it like normal.

I'd say being distracted by something else in the room and running smack dab into something, or falling off a cliff really stinks. 
I always figured "Time to tip the scales" was Wario's everyday motto.
