Surprising. There are about 64 games on the list that I've played, and things started getting really sticky when I had 36 left to choose from.

Biggest disappointment for not being included: Banjo-Tooie. If there was ever a sequel in a two-part game series (considering that all other Banjo games have been very different) that was better than its prequel, then this game takes the cake. Banjo-Kazooie was wonderful, but Tooie improved on that game on so many levels. I do seem to be the only one who thinks this, though. :| Well, Chup, I guess you're in the same dank boat with SFA's exclusion, eh?

Actually, Banjo-Tooie was one of the very games I was thinking of when I said this:
Quote from: Sapphira
There were several games I would've voted for, had they been on the list, but it's NP's poll, so...

I absolutely loved BT. While I enjoyed BK, BT was so much more fun, I found. Other games I was thinking of where DKC2 and 3, and DK64. While DKC was fun and all, 3 and especially 2 were completely awesome and much more enjoyable to me. I don't understand why so many people bash DK64; I found it really fun, and really loved the music. I think there were some Mario games I thought of, but I can't remember what they were.

I'm with you on all of that except for DKC3, which I never had the chance to play.

The reason people don't like DK64, I'm guessing, is that it could have you running in 64 different directions at once collecting tons and tons of bananas and other stuff. I never felt so busy and loaded with things to do in a game before I played DK64. However, for me that was a lot of fun.

Sometimes the tedious stuff can be fun. Mostly after finishing it all; it gives a sense of accomplishment. Then again, I enjoy collecting stuff in real life, so maybe it's just a way of getting that out of my system? Whee for OCPD. XD
And why does that not surprise me, Yoshi55? ¬_¬

Everyone is complaining about their NP subscrip. ending at 199. Mine started at 200! ^_^ The poster is sweet and me, Mr.Nostalgic (I'm still Mr.Melee), loves the retro stickers! I hope they'll stick to my guitar case.

The biggest, single-game discrepancy on that list is Kirby's Adventure.  It should have broke the top 30, and it's not even there.

On the other hand, "best games of all time" lists are inherently impossible; in almost all cases, they end up laughable.  So, I think it's good that NP didn't really try.  It would have been wasted energy.  All in all, it was a fun series to read.
Today's actually... nobody's birthday!  Quick, hurry up and make a baby!

Total agreement there. Actually, I would have voted for Kirby Super Star, considering it's like one of the most fun games ever, but it's not there either. Their "top 200" is skewed.

Dank boat, heh. Even though I love SFA, I wouldn't consider it a great game (at least, not anymore).
While I don't think Ocarina of Time is the greatest game ever, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a game with such rich atmosphere. That's what makes that game so dang cool. Of course, that's probably why I like SFA.
I probably should have been more careful with my votes, now that I think about it.
That was a joke.

Atmosphere justified a lot of my choices. It helps a game a lot more than you'd think.

It's the best game of all time; it deserves to be #1, IMO, of course.

I dunno, I don't like Zelda games for some reason. Although I like Link in SSB.
