Sign me up, little Zuzu!



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

It's the most convenient method. Plus everything that helps to get more Nintendo games on the final list for the celebration event should be welcomed with opened arms.

And because of this method the results will suck. Why just don't make an honest list? This thread should be just 4 fun and not for competition.

Realistically the list of people will consist mostly of games on the platform they like. That's because they play on it. That people are multi-console-owners is a new thing. So naturally they only KNOW of games on their platform. I assume your list will be mostly PS, even if you don't try it to be. That's why the event is so cool, we see the lists of others.

Sounds fun, I'm in. I just hope I won't forget about it. Will the thread be pinned later or something? Or could just someone remember me when things get going? That would be great, thanks. =D

We have now this nifty subscribe feature.

I kinda wish this was something like 25 greatest games. 50 is just way too hard.

Last year I had a shortlist of over 80 titles. Was hard to skip 30.

I hope the top 20 games are all Nintendo again. We have diverse taste here.

In all fairness, Nintendo invest high in polishing their games and has a focus on lasting fun instead of graphics or stuff that fades over time. That's why older games hold up well in the personal best of the gamers. I myself was a PC gamer, so I have not much Nintendo nostalgia. But in these few years of me playing on console Nintendo already had some games which caught my heart. If more other companies have the same level of polish and focus, the list would look different. but they mostly manage it for a time or even for a game or a series (means it mostly is bound to some persons overseeing the games). That's why this level of Nintendo dominance is understable, although still a pity. because if more companies would make games with that focus, we just would've a lot more great games.

Was it really all Nintendo in the top 20 last year? I voted last year, but never saw the results thread

VGC really needs some platform diversity.

I hope this year the main thread will containing links to the last years again.

That means my list must be considered fine as well.

And what's that talk about a Nintendo problem? Are we discriminating against great games now?

Every time there's not a Final Fantasy game at #1 you're discriminating against great games!

Eugh. I played FFX, and while a fine game it didn't set my world on fire. After that Square was giving up on turn-based, so these games can't be great per definition. Maybe I try some older ones, but I doubt more than one or two really get me.

50 is not that much, when you write down games you like now and in the past you’re there in no time. I’ve been swapping games in and out of my lists each year because I want to mention them, and there’s still some I haven’t had in yet.

I know what you mean.  Hopefully I still have my list of top 100 somewhere.  I figure there are some games in there that I may view more fondly now and others less so.  They are all games I love, but I just have a hard time putting most of them in a consistent order.

I have mine in a database from last year. To sort my list I wrote myself a little program, which asked if I prefer game A or game B and with many of these comparisons ordered them into a list. I add the new games I played and use that again.

By the way, I hope you are again at the guessing thread and guess my games that are from the last century. The more current games are guessed fine by other members too, but not the old ones.
