Welcome to the Nintendo 2024 OpenCritic Prediction League! Since last year's threads went fairly well I've decided to continue them this year with a few changes to the rules to make it just a tad easier for myself.
The Rules:
- When you place at least 3 predictions, I will add you to the list of participants which will be written in the same order for each game. I’ll tag all the participants if more games are added later on. You can still throw out 1 or 2 loose predictions without entering, but I won’t write you up in that case.
- Scores are tallied about a month after release for each game. If the score should change after that it won’t affect the points (since that's very rare anyways).
- You can change or post a prediction up until the first reviews show up. Make sure to make a new post if you want to change a previous prediction.
Scoring:
| Prediction same as actual score | 10 points |
| 1-point difference | 9 points |
| 2-point difference | 8 points |
| 3-point difference | 7 points |
| 4-point difference | 6 points |
| 5-point difference | 5 points |
| 6-point difference | 4 points |
| 7-point difference | 3 points |
| 8-point difference | 2 points |
| 9-point difference | 1 point |
| 10-point difference or more | 0 points |
| Closest prediction bonus | +2 points |

The Games:
Though 2024 is looking a little slower for Nintendo going into the year, we do have 5 confirmed titles to predict for (though 4 of them are remakes/remasters). There's definetly also the possibility of an announcement of a new systems and games for it later in the year so anything can still happen. If I'm missing a notable game let me know about it. Let the predictions begin!
