Just to finish the thing, N64 is also on there now, it was obviously a lot shorter. It doesn't have as big a library, but what is there is good. Unlike previous, Switch easily wins here, having not only the larger library but adding some crucial titles likes GoldenEye and Banjo-Kazooie among other greats. Missing a few things, but only Smash truly shines in its absense.

I think Mario World is a good candidate because I feel like it's instantly associated with the SNES. If you ask someone to name a SNES game, World is going to be the first a lot of people think of. Like it didn't do anything revolutionary (other than introduce Yoshi, I guess), but I think it's almost ubiquitous with the console, kind of in the way Mario 64 is with the N64.

Yeah, I think this is just it. It would be extremely weird to be seeing like a "greatest of SNES" selection and SMW somehow not being on there. It's pretty much the face of the system. Besides, it did introduce many main stays in Mario and has held up perfectly for over 30 years.

There's apparently a single side quest I did not perfectly execute.

Opening post spreadsheet now also includes GB and GBC comparing with only 3DS. It's a very shallow selection in comparison as well with 83 against only 21, they're sleeping on a lot of obvious stuff here. A lot of the one's on 3DS are ports of old arcade games, which early Game Boy saw a lot of releases of, but even removing that there's a lot of room to improve the NSO selection.

Oh yeah, Metroid gauntlet was supposed to be the next shared playthrough because it was fun with Breath of Fire, only MZero had a game before me lmao. But I support it.

Can I sign up, claim scum day 1 and ask for a replacement?

It's actually probably the best way to go about this project in periods where you're demotivated. Choose a game and try to play it somewhat simulatanously with your online friends. Breath of Fire worked very well for that, obviously Solomon's Key isn't that long but same principle.

Cool, thanks!

On one hand, 'murica...but upon further thought, that's a persuasive point about lacking European releases. Have we had another game with this issue in this topic series? Not sure that we have this past week at a glance.

I brought up a similar point when people discussed FF/DQ on NES but neither made it. I wouldn't complain if any of them made it on, I like them a lot and it's definitely deserved, but I just thought it felt weird to have something there my SNES can't actually play and since there are super strong games in the run otherwise I brought it up.

Interestingly we did get Final Fantasy Mystic Quest out here. FFVII is the actual first FF and obviously that's the one that made releases here the standard.

Also got a mil my mother better get through whatever game she's required to lol.

I get thinking SNES should have an RPG here but not a single RPG mentioned in the topic is actually playable on my SNES. I think having no PAL release is a pretty large con and since the SNES has a top tier library even without RPGs, I think that's better. Besides, I don't think any of the RPG contenders are clear of each other.

I finished level 50. Would you grind before hard mode or is that unnecessary?

That deleted post was me posting spoilers but I deleted in less than a second I want to say.

Game is finally beat!

I beat the game. Very pleased they did not in fact revert Aerith death. This multiverse stuff might be a please everyone and have the cool characters around in some capacity but whatever. They keep a good job making me doubt it would happen and keep the suspense. Also I thought I had heard somewhere this game would not actually reach that point before it came out but maybe I was mistaken.

The worst theories/hopes the past four years were by far the "Tifa dies instead" ones and it's nice getting that deconfirmed after having told people for almost 4 years that there would literally be 0% chance. Not only is it completely random it's also the party member with the smost plot relevance in the rest of the game not named Cloud and they even started hinting towards Tifa knowing Cloud remembers things wrong this game which was not resolved.

Overall very happy. It's close to perfect. A few sections drag a bit, some stuff is a bit too messy, but I even enjoyed every single minigame not called Cactuar Crush. What a ride that was.

Super Mario World
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Donkey Kong Country
Super Metroid

HM to some fantastic RPGs that didn't release worldwide on the console.

Shocked Dottler survived. It should win this entire contest tbh

I'll take it.

I will pay until I finish now, game told me final stretch. After 109 hours and doing absolutely everything the game had to offer until this point, it is finally time to be free from spoiler fear.

This is a tough call, and it comes down to the fact that Flygon may be the best, but Drilbur/Excadrill and Sandile/Krokorok/Krookodile all beat out the next-best from Gen III in Numel/Camerupt/Groudon, so I have to give the win to Gen V here.

Spot on with every name here. Conflicted about conclusion.

It was just a pretty good division I think.

ZenOfThunder posted...

Middle evolutions mostly suck, at least lately. It really seems like they design the starters and the final stages first and then the middle evos are afterthoughts because they wont be in any marketing

This is often the case, but I think giving Dartrix the awkward teenage vibe makes it less of an afterthought. Whether people like it or not is a different case.

Very meh divisions today. Agree not bad, just indifferent about the vast majority here. Spheal is excellent though.

How about you Wallz? I'll play Solomon's Key in place of StarTropics, which also actually is in line with the chronological order.

By signing up you agree you will not have any other active participants blocked at any time during the game. When Toy Story Mafia ends or you have been eliminated from the game you may resume doing as you please.

Also this should be when the game ends actually. Every alive player should be able to go back and read all posts of the game whole playing. Of course hopefully it's just no issue.

Yeah, I get that, would just rather play them in that order lol.

wallmasterz posted...

ctes, if you choose to sit this one out due to still finishing up Rebirth, youre welcome to spectate on discord. Just let me know.

Oh this is actually not the reason, I just have a super inconsistent schedule usually that can keep me gone basically for two days straight occasionally. Thanks though, I am still considering.

In UotY you had to do full votes but that was also so you couldn't play the game by avoiding the negatives, but that wasn't the issue now so who knows.

How long did it run for last time?

Would that nullify the whole vote?

the 4th movie shoudnt exist

This is partially why I haven't seen it but I still am curious, I just never got around to it.

Dudunsparce posted...

I get why it isnt, but I feel like these console Rushmores would be way more interesting if it was personal

I feel the complete opposite. The fun thing here is that it gives discussion and isn't just yet another popularity content. I mean, those are fine, but we have had them.

I have still never seen the fourth movie.

We did it, Dottler!

I am very happy they are not they, to me it's low tier gameplay that just distracts cool scenes more than help them.

I personally like Majora more too, but it's hard to deny OoT is bigger.

OoT is still today and probably forever the best reviewed game of all time!

It's still impressive, Villa doesn't have the same squad depth it takes to keep it up all year. Finishing 5th would be very good. Especially because it might still give CL.

Wanna play the first next week?

Hard to leave Star Fox off, but when I think of the N64 I mostly think of 4-player gaming on your friend's couch.

Yeah this is getting into why I think Mario Kart is the fourth choice here. Star Fox is a good choice, but it just doesn't beat the legacy Mario Kart 64 has, still widely respected and played today as the classic Mario Kart which bssically defined coach co-op to me.

Super Mario 64
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
GoldenEye 007
Mario Kart 64

We can all try to be cute but this is it. I haven't felt as confident any of the other days.

Yeah I think both Solomon and Mystery Tower would be fun shared playthroughs.

Alright, I beat Gilgamesh. That was easier than anticipated. Final stretch let's go.

That was not a penalty imo. Probably doesn't make a difference anyway, but yeah.

Isn't it just if you have the patch?
