@souixan - As do I, friend. As do I.
@highwaystar - We had some sort-of "preliminary" elimination game stuff a couple weeks ago and Mr. Miyamoto basically slapped everybody else around with his phallus. Without a doubt, everybody can agree that he is the #1 most important video game developer in gaming history, and I know some Xbox and PS fanboys that would vote for him because they recognize that. Many will try disagreeing, but honestly now. Mario, Zelda, Star Fox, Donkey Kong, etc. Each and every one of those franchises has shaped videogaming, and virtually every single game you play today (sans racers or shooters) has some sort of roots in one of those four (or one of Shiggsy's other franchises). So, it'd be unfair and ridiculous to include him.
Anyway, back to the game. I'm cleaning house hahaha.
