Didn't have any free time yesterday, so catching up:

-The thing with remakes' strength mostly relies on how much they add to the original experience. Like, let's not forget that TP HD and WW HD are not remakes, but remasters, and those barely change anything at all. They are basically ports and have no relevance whatsoever. Link's Awakening and RE2 are clearly a fairly different experience that make the game stand on its own.

-People are underestimating how incredibly hated Sword/Shield were before release.

-Maybe Allen excluded KH3 after FFXV's fiasco? Or because he wanted to put lesser-known games in the spotlight? I don't know... Actually, I'd really like to see a match-up between those too. Who ya got?

-I don't really believe in recency bias unless it comes from a hyped game. Same for games that came out early in the year they can be sleeper hits and become strong over time. If a game is a hit, it will stay in people's minds. Just look at Sekiro: It was talked about a month or two after it came out and then it seemed to disappear, yet it has been performing very decently in this year's polls.
