Time for a new contest please read before you vote because some people misunderstood and voted wrong.

So what´s this thing about? easy, I choose 3 games (or franchises) of the same genre (or similar) and you pick the one you would eliminate from history (meaning it never existed so you never got a chance to play it)

 

Please be sure to share some comments when you vote because I do like reading your thoughts

 

Let´s take a look at the 3 games of this edition

 

 

 

So, which one gotta go?

I'd say Mega Man 2. If only because Sonic 2 and especially Mario World have had a much bigger impact on both people and the industry. Not to mention that those 2 games influenced later titles in the series to an extent that can't be ignored, while the Mega Man series never really did change that much, MM2 or not.



bet: lost

Oh goodness, this is a tough one.

They're all great games, but if I had to choose one, probably Mega Man 2, solely because Mega Man isn't as iconic as Mario or Sonic.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Not entirely sure why, but I had more enjoyment from Mario World and Sonic 2. Mega Man 2 is a great game but I'd say it's my least favorite of the three



On a completely related note, I hated Sophie's Choice.

Gonna have to say Sonic. Sure he's more iconic, but I enjoyed Megaman and Mario World tons more. Not being able to play either of them would be a true travesty for me.

I guess the deciding factor for me is historical impact and how it guided my experience... Mario was hugely important for obvious reasons and was one of the biggest reasons I loved Nintendo, and Sonic got me into the Genesis and later dreamcast.

Megaman, while fun, didn't really steer me towards other great games quite like the previous two did. Heck, I had virtually zero interest in sega until the second sonic game.



Hmm, this is pretty difficult... probably will go with Mega Man though :/

So much ouch here. I love all 3 games, but Sonic 2 is my 2nd or 3rd favorite game of all time, and Mario World is really high up there too. Megaman 2 doesn't quite cut it for me. So Megaman 2 has to go.

This is a hard one... ehh sonic 2 is what I have to choose.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
