I did not see RBI Baseball mentioned anywhere in any of the threads which is a huge omission imo

Re: **Official Greatest NES Game of All-Time** Elite Eight
 

Oy shut up about TSB, it's up against what was essentially the birth of console games as we know them, and the proper introduction of a character who is more recognizable than the President of the United States, not to mention the number one game on IGN's Top 100 list both times.

No, you're not. Doki Doki Panic isn't good enough to be on the list. The only reason it's still here is Mario fanboyism.

Re: **Official Greatest NES Game of All-Time** Elite Eight
 

did anyone actually play tetris on nes? i thought the fame grew on gameboy.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, the reason it's still here is because it was up against World Class Track Meet, the original Bomberman, and Double Dragon II. The only one that can even be argued as superior is DD2. I personally prefer DD2 but I don't think SMB2 beating it is a big deal, it's close enough. Think about how awesome Birdo is.

Stop commenting without understanding the brackets. These are not necessarily what OOT thinks are the 8 greatest NES games if we voted in a straight poll.

True. I didn't pay much attention to the early brackets. DD2 is superior, but close enough that it's no big deal.

I'll die a little (or a lot) inside if SMB2 beats Contra, though.

Re: **Official Greatest NES Game of All-Time** Elite Eight
 

how is the original smb winning over tsb? dont get me wrong its a fun game and an "innovator", but this isn't a poll for the most important nes game ever made. you guys are jokers for voting for anything other than tsb all the way.

I know right? I mean you couldn't get 90 sacks with the nose tackle in the original Mario game.

FWIW, SMB2 was likely my favorite of the 3. OMG CONTROVERSY!!!

right, I understand the concept of seeding. what I don't understand is why people are voting for both marios instead of picking the better one and then letting the other one die.

and btw you're wrong, punchout &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; smb3

we used to play seasons of it
is saved stats on a frickin cartridge how awesome is that

We did 8 teams -- NFC East and AFC central so we played 10 games against a human opponent and 6 against a computer.

It was sweet. It was simple. It was awesome

Each vote is a completely independent event and you have to weigh the two games that are head-to-head on their own merits, not with some complicated meta-bracket thing. If any intelligent group of gamers got together and made a "Best NES Games" list, both Mario 1 and Mario 3 would be in at least the top 5, so I don't see a problem.

Birdo [censored] owns in Strikers Charged, SMB2 gets the win.

playing against the computer, I agree simply because its too easy. But playing against a friend it has great replay value imo.

I realized how amazing Birdo is (in general, not just in Strikers) when I was reminded the other day that in the SMB2 instruction manual it says that Birdo is a guy who thinks he's a girl and therefore wears a bow and spits eggs. Nintendo has been trying to cover it up ever since, but he's definitely a tranny. It's great.
