Who two? And I don't understand your post. :(

You and Leo-J are the only diehard sony boys I've really seen hanging around this site on any regular basis. The numbers are posted up right on the front page, so it's not exactly something that is condusive to those fanboys who just want to be able to say "wooo, sony > nintendo!!!"

I either made a thread or a post about this effect a while back. 

 



Seppukuties is like LBP Lite, on crack. Play it already!

Currently wrapped up in: Half Life, Portal, and User Created Source Mods
Games I want: (Wii)Mario Kart, Okami, Bully, Conduit,  No More Heroes 2 (GC) Eternal Darkness, Killer7, (PS2) Ico, God of War1&2, Legacy of Kain: SR2&Defiance


My Prediction: Wii will be achieve 48% market share by the end of 2008, and will achieve 50% by the end of june of 09. Prediction Failed.

OMG I am not a Sony Fanboy. As you can clearly see in my sig, I have an XBOX 360; Not a PS3. I bought my XBOX 360, not a PS3. So therefore, if I could have bought a PS3 but bought a 360, and bought a 360, what qualifies me as a "Sony Fanboy". I don't want to say Sony is better than Nintendo. I want to come to this site, and not feel like if I don't like the Nintendo Wii that I am alone in this world, not that I don't like the Wii, but that's what I want to feel. I really don't care what company wins, I just like playing games.

no not with this site, and the rankings need to be removed


i got into an arguement with someone trying to say that VGchartz is not biased, he brough up how he saw that ALL nintendo games were rated the highest, and i had nothing to say about it cause its true.

ratings need to be removed, or something changes cause the site looks to much pro nintendo

 You should have answered.

It is true that the most members on VGCHARTZ are nintendo biased but the site isn't and the numbers are correct.

I want two changes on the rankings:

1)  Guests may not have the ability to vote! (And you need 200 posts before you can vote).

2)  We need an option where we can see who vote what and how much they give.






I agree with Rol. No game over a 9. Can we say that user ratings have failed yet? Can ioi just make a deal with gamerankings and get those numbers instead?



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.

I was just curious to know how many more title Nintendo had then Sony or Microsoft to see if the sheer number of software had anything to do with the one sided rankings.

Heres what Wikipedia says (all numbers are approximate and it includes foreign titles and for the newer systems it stats titles that have been confirmed in production.... so that this with a grain of salt)

Nintendo:                                       Sony:                                    Microsoft:
NES - 810                                  PS - 2601                                Xbox - 901
SNES - 750                                PS2 - 1700                              X360 - 390
VB-14                                        PS3 - 318
N64 - 387                                  PSP - 561
GC - 648
Wii - 410
Gameboy - 800
GBC - 525
GBA - 940

Totals:
Nintendo - 5984
Sony - 5180
Microsoft - 1291

I was really surprised to see how close sony is to having the same number of titles as nintendo despite being a lot newer the the game idustry. I realize the PSOne is known for its ridiculous amount of shovelware but the NES is aswell.

All in all im quite surprised that Sony has nothing in the top 100 out of a little over 5000 different games. I personally dont think the xbox brand has a whole lot to offer but i still would have thought at least a few titles would land in the top 100 such as Halo, KOTOR, Fable, Gears of War etc.



The top 13 are all Zelda games, with OoT leading the pack, and LttP and Tp close behind. That is awesome!

It's bull that games like MGS 1-3, GoW 1/2, and SotC couldn't make the top 50, or even the top 100, but at least Zelda is getting proper love. :)



Well its well known fact that the membership is overly pro-Nintendo and that fanboys vote games from competing consoles lower. Combine the two and you have Nintendo dominating the rankings.

I'm not sure why anyone would be surprised by this.



 
Debating with fanboys, its not
all that dissimilar to banging ones
head against a wall 

What's even funnier is that the first 13 games are Zelda games and 15 of the first 16 are as well (Galaxy screwing things up).
