It's a strange trend where the Top 50 event seems to appeal more to Nintendo gamers than Sony/MS/PC gamers. Each year as there's more and more users submitting their lists, I think to myself that the Nintendomination will be reduced but it seems the number of participants didn't change things after all.

Doesn't necessarily mean to appeal to "Nintendo gamers", but rather, people who grew up with Nintendo. That's something that is stuck with us forever, as an integral part of our childhood; and such, those kind of games will never be removed from there because we look back to them with both love and nostalgia. It doesn't help that those games were (are?) also amazing.

It should also be noted that the fact that these games are still rated this highly, almost 20 years later, goes to show the quality and impact of them. Sure they feel a little dated, and thats because they are dated. But theyre still very replayable even to this day and they form a key part of many gamers history, even if the gamer themselves has moved on to other companys like sony and microsoft.
