It's been over a day since I've checked this thread.  When I last looked, I thought one of two Zeldas would take it, but now FF7 is a serious contender as well.  That's actually impressive that a game voted as runner up is easily surpassing Game of the Decade winners like Mario 3 and RE4.  I guess that shows how well loved 90's games are in general.  I think I've also seen people mention games like Chrono Trigger and Mario 64 as their all time favorites.  There is definitely a lot of love for the 90's.

There's also the fact that excluding the two 70s games with very few votes each, there's five Nintendo-exclusive games vs. three exclusively non-Nintendo games + one that's on both Nintendo and non-Nintendo platforms, so the non-Nintendo folks have fewer games to split their votes between. Personally I'm surprised mainly about how poorly The Last of Us is doing, considering all the praise it tends to get. It's especially troublesome for the Nintendo games that there's two very highly acclaimed Zelda games that are basically cannibalizing each other, because neither of them is having an easy time rising above the other. This voting format is a lot of fun, but this is definitely one of the issues with it (that's not negative feedback though - just an observation!).
