I've got Nintendo winning huge in mine too.

Except for Donkey Kong. Poor Donkey Kong...

I'm not sure how things have changed in the past while (probably haven't followed a GameFAQs contest in over a decade) but I've always bet on the following trends:
  • Zelda games will win (BotW as the champ for this IMO, and well deserved one at that)
  • Outside of Zelda games, Mario games do really well. Nintendo in general is extremely strong but dudes like Donkey Kong struggle for some reason.
  • Final Fantasy / JRPGs are typically very strong too, though weaker than the big Nintendo games.
  • Legacy matters a lot. For example, I think Street Fighter, Diablo gets a lot of respect from the average GFAQer due to legacy and may overperform.
  • I think Big Budget AAA Western games/IPs will still do well, but underperform a bit. RDR2 for example I don't see making it out of the third round.


Should be a fun contest!
