Meme Run is an infamous platformer originally released for the Wii U in 2014, notorious for being a collage of every popular 'MLG' and internet meme of the era, including the Trollface, Sanic, and Doge. Developed by Ninja Pig Studios, the game became a cult sensation not for its quality, but for its sheer absurdity and the legal controversy surrounding its use of copyrighted imagery that eventually led to its removal from the Nintendo eShop. In internet culture, Meme Run represents the height of early 2010s 'random' humor and the frantic energy of pre-ironic meme cycles. Today, the template is frequently used to symbolize someone being overwhelmed by internet culture or desperately trying to outrun inescapable problems and chaotic situations.
