| LusterSoldier 04/26/21 1:41:55 AM #121: | It's not a favorite game poll because it says "best all-time", which is not interpreted by voters the same way that a favorite game poll would be. You can clearly see the difference in results between a "best game" poll and a "favorite game" poll by looking at these 2 polls: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7638- https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7757- It's not 100% comparable due to the second poll having an option for 3D Land, but that game is easily the least popular 3D Mario, so it doesn't really affect the results that much. What I clearly see from those 2 polls that is games which rely on nostalgia will perform worse in a "best game" poll. This applies to Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine, the only 2 3D Marios that are old enough on this site to possibly benefit from nostalgia. Mario Galaxy is a bit too recent to get any strength from nostalgia, at least among this site's userbase. In a "best game" poll, voters see it a bit differently and will actually consider the individual aspects of each game in weighing out which game to vote for. Where as a "favorite game" poll is a snap rush vote that is made without really considering the individual aspects of each game, so you see the effects of nostalgia present in the results. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as azuarc, Guru Champ! ...
