Aaaaaaand it's here!

Thank you for your patience everyone while me and @axumblade were cooking up this years results! Before we get into the results themselves I of course need to give out the a few thanks: First a huge thanks to the previous hosts that kept this going for 15 strong years: @Smeags , @Leadified , @mZuzek! And then also a massive thanks to my co-result compiler @axumblade without who this would not have been possible this year.

We'll that's it for the thanks, now for the results compiled out of 34 fanastic lists. Like I've mentioned earlier we've dropped the mandatory inclusion of consoles this year which of course means we also couldn't do a console breakdown, but instead I've introduced the new stat of average placement which I hope you'll find interesting.

That's it for now! Enjoy the thread

OoT, BotW, and Mario 64 all sitting where they belong. Masterpieces! TTYD, Banjo Kazooie, and MM are a tad bit low… also, Clair Obscur sitting as the top game of the decade is well deserved! All-in-all, cool data.



BraLoD on 25 January 2026

Best average The Legend of Dragoon, averaging position 1.5 xD

@Darashiva #2, mine #1

If only more people could see the greatness.

Thanks for all the work both to the OP and axum, really appreciate it.

The top 3 are all among my favourite games of all time, and my all time #1 (Resident Evil 4) made the top 10, so I'm happy.

Thanks for running it again this year guys. :)
