Poll
Question:
Which of these games is the 2nd BEST FAMICOM GAME? What's left becomes #1!
Option 1: Super Mario Bros. 1
votes: 21
Option 2: Super Mario Bros. 3
votes: 10
the elimination rounds are over, and now all that's left to do is decide the order in which these games get placed into. If there's a tie, a tie-breaking poll will then be made. We'll continue to do this until all games are numbed!
So get voting! Vote for the game that should take the 10th place!
Who the *** voted Super Mario 3?? :o
This is for place 25, guys! ???
Are you really planning on doing 24 of these polls? Why not do another bracket?

Agreed, this is going to be the longest vote in history!
We're not in any hurry are we? Yes, I'm going to do 25 polls, probably each lasting a day or so.
At least no one voted for Super Mari- OH HELL NO!

It just seems like clutter to me. And it does very little to reduce the number of ties.
edit: That's a personal comment, not a mod comment.
I think it's fine this way, -- actually, I don't see a better way right now, -- but instead of creating a new thread for each new poll, just edit this thread's poll, eliminating one game each time and resetting the vote count to zero. Keep the polls on a strict voting time limit of like 24 hours, that way people know when a new poll is up -- so they don't miss a poll if they really don't want to.
All very good ideas JC. I will be sure to do just that.
Okay!
So now the polls will last a day each, so be sure to check Famicom World as often as you can! Since most of us will probably be busy with our families, I'll skip over the 25th.
So far, we've decided that
the 25th best game is Return of Mario Bros (FDS)
The poll will now be edited and voting posted deleted.
Hmm...that seems like a strange 25th best game. But what do I know. Maybe it's because it's a rehash of the original, but the original isn't even on the list. Democracy.
Exactly. This list will not reflect my own personal gaming opinions, but rather the overall opinions of the entire community. What more can you ask for? I'm a big Famicom Wars fan, but apparently the community doesn't agree, and it was tossed out almost right away.
I should get a new non-cheapo capture card for x-mas, and I'm thinking of doing some sort of video commentary for this. Any have any suggestions for what I could do?
Again 2 votes for SMB 3??? And also 2 for SMB1??
Guys? I really hope everybody reads the text. ... ???
Super Mario Bros. 1 and 3 are easily top 5 FC games!
Since the results for #24 are all over the place, I've edited the poll to only include those games that are tied with two votes each. Hopefully doing this will result in declaring a 24th slot.
Okay, I guess its decided.
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)
Hey JC, I seem to be having problems editing the poll, it won't save all my changes for some reason. Only half the poll shows up!

Must be an SMF bug. I had to type in one new entry, hit preview, type in the next new one, hit preview, and repeat. It seemed to jumble up the order as I was trying to get it to work, so I reset the 3 votes that were there.
Please vote people. Most polls average around 18 votes, and this one has only 9. Thanks.
Must be the holidays.
Okay, I guess its decided.
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)
#23 Tetris, Tengen version (FC)
Please vote if you haven't already. If Holy Diver is in 22nd place tomorrow, I'm going to move on to 21st place.
Okay, I guess its decided.
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)
#23 Tetris, Tengen version (FC)
#22 Holy Diver (FC)
The results seem spot on. I keep thinking, "But Hino Tori is such a great game," or "But Tetris is such a great game." And then I look at what's left on the list and pretty much realize the ones that remain are better...well, except for a couple that suck and need to go away. :P
Somebody needs to vote to break this tie so I can post the next poll tomorrow. Thanks people.

That would actually be nice. You could even put it on FW's youtube page (or did it get hacked again?). I would make it simple, maybe two parts. Show some gameplay footage while you talk about why it was so good.
Okay, I'll be sure to do something.
And so far, we have
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)
#23 Tetris, Tengen version (FC)
#22 Holy Diver (FC)
#21 Antartic Adventure (FC)
#20 Balloon Fight
Poll has been updated, vote away!
crazy... I can't believe Mario 3, Hoshi no Kirby, and Sweet Home are getting votes. All three are such fantastic games, yet they're losing to Castlevania 1, Metroid, and Doki Doki Panic? the last three are good as well, but...
Thats the way the cookie crumbles. I think this is great as it gives the entire community input. Its whatever Famicom World decides, not what any single one of us thinks. I'm sure we all would have a different order and probably even different games in the final 25. So try not to get too upset, just go with it.
Update time. And so far, we have
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)

#22 Holy Diver (FC)

I've been voting for Otocky this whole time...now I get to pick another since Otocky is 19.
yes. I didn't mean to sound upset, I'm just a little surprised.

I'm wondering how Metroid, Castlevania, and Ninja Gaiden are still in.
Yeah me too...

That's also a great game! :D
I think we're at the point where they're all great games and it's tough to decide which one to kick toward the bottom of the list...

If you voted Rockman 5, its not too late to change your vote to something else! To show your thanks for support where, watch yet another japanese-only commercial for it!

Yeah! Change your vote to Akumajō Dracula or Castlevania
yes, Castlevania should be out soon, but my honest opinion is it's more deserving of a higher position than Rockman 5. regardless, Rockman 2 will certainly do very well in the final lineup.
oh, and just so you know, nobody listened to my pleas for Sweet Home either.

did NOT mean to vote for summer carnival. how do I change votes?
The poll will have to be edited to add in a "remove vote" hyperlink.
We haven't allowed the remove vote button, so I guess we ought not to at this point.
Yes. You can't vote Bush and then say you didn't mean to. :P ;D
It seems that Akumajou Dracula is out anyways.

I've been voting on SMB3 every time. It's a shame the bastard refuses to drop.
ah. sorry then. looks like it won't have any effect at all, however.
LOL! well I have been voting for Ninja Gaiden for a while.....the game is good but not great.
This has been a close poll, but it looks like #16 is Akumajō Dracula (FC & FDS)

Mother needs to go down.
Well Lagrange Point is missing and it's a very good game.
Kill SMB3!
Akumajō Densetsu is my guess/vote...currently one behind Mother

Kill SMB3!
I will fight for SMB3 until with my last breath. Hands down best Famicom game, and best video game for that matter!
I join the crusade for SMB3. One of the best games EVER!
Let's get rid of Hitler instead. ;D
Yes time to kill hitler!
Come on guys, one more vote!
Somebody?
Ooh, people seem to want Mother out. Why!? Mother is awesome! Lets kill something else first!
As I said, Hitler is a good chance now. Mother is definitely better than that.
Yeah, kill Hitler. Mother deserves to stay for a little while longer.
MOTHER needs to stay! Whoever voted MOTHER must've never even played it! Definetly the best RPG on NES!
I just really don't like RPGs, with very few exceptions.
Hurry now, close the poll for today! We have a winner! ... Well, loser.
Time to vote for #14 soon.
Wow I think mother survived!
Quote from: keiffer01 on January 14, 2009, 08:26:50 pm

Nah, that would be Sweet Home IMO. If you haven't played it, give it a try and you'll see why it should have survived until top 10. ah well, too late for the latter now...
Sweet Home is the only RPG-style game I've found playable. I guess, that's if you don't count King Kong 2 as RPGish.
Is that King Kong 2 any good?
I saw it in a store today, but didn't consider buying, because I don't know anything about it.

Yes I bought it after reading about it on Superfamikings blog. Pretty entertaining.
It's awesome and one of the games I'm always recommending, though it seems few people pay any attention to that. :P
Haha, I also didn't pay attention it seems. :-X Sorry. :)

Poll has been updated, vote away!
I'd like to kick out Ninja Gaiden now...
You know what's weird? Anytime someone mentions kicking out a game, a few members dutifully vote for it. Ninja Gaiden has done really great up to now, but because you mentioned it, it somehow has 4 votes already. :P
There were two votes for it before he made the comment. I think it's just next up (or close to next) on the chopping block.
I went with Metroid, though. It's an excellent concept, but the execution is somewhat poor. Metroid II and Super Metroid do the concept justice. This is the same reasoning I used to vote out Castlevania and not Castlevania III.
2 were already there, 1 was from me.
Dutiful FW members FTW!
I don't think it would work for the very good titles, though.
Maybe I'll stop manipulating results... maybe. :D
God finally I've been trying to vote out ninja gaiden for the past 4 rounds!
"Gerfitti" :D -- just noticed that.
Must be some weird pirate or something... :P ;)
AWAA Pirate where??? give meeeeeeeee!
Mother needs to go! It was so close last time around, kill it!
Never mother will live on!!
Yikes! These polls are getting brutal. :o
Manuel mentionned to take out ninja gaiden, and from looking at that list I do have to agree. I was never really close to the ninja gaiden series, and I played it a few times and find it...meh. So my vote goes for Ninja Gaiden! :o
My mind boggles how Doki Doki Panic could possibly survive over Ninja Gaiden and Bionic Commando. The world stopped making sense.
I'd guess members have a nostalgic connection with Doki through NES SMB2, plus a respect for it as having been the original version. I'd think some are just fascinated with the Nazi imagery of Hitler no Fukkatsu. I think Ninja Gaiden is cool, but I don't have any care if it stays or goes, but it's definitely going down this time.
How did Ninja Gaiden get at 14 anyway? I'd think top ten at least. Well, that's the number game!
So with nine votes,
#14 is Ninja Ryukenden [Ninja Gaiden], That makes the list to be:
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)
#23 Tetris, Tengen version (FC)
#22 Holy Diver (FC)
#21 Antartic Adventure (FC)
#20 Balloon Fight (FC)
#19 Otocky (FDS)
#18 Sweet Home (FC)

#16 Akumajō Dracula (FC & FDS)
#15 Top Secret: Hitler's Revival [Bionic Commando]
#14 Ninja Ryukenden [Ninja Gaiden]

Edit: this time, please don't post what you voted for. I for one, don't want the "lets kill this game!" posts influencing people if that truly is whats happening.

I happen to think this poll is great. A list like this has been lacking for long time. The only thing similar I can find is from Famitsu, but that's different. People that played the Famicom when it was current have a different perspective.
WOW! Mother, #13?! I played Metroid and Mother last summer and I remember Mother being ALOT more enjoyable than Metroid...Oh well. The peoples votes have spoken I guess. :P And by the way this poll is great and all, but I think you shouldnt be allowed to see the vote results UNTIL you have voted yourself. Notice how its always the same games who get the most votes and all. I bet some of the people here who voted were easily convinced of what to vote for by the results they saw. :-\ :P
I agree... Mother deserved higher...
Oh well, no crying over spilled milk. I like Mother as much as the next guy, but I guess all we can do is get over ourselves and move on. :-\

Sadly, I dont know if there is anyone left to vote; so we probably have to do a breaker round.
We had rounds with over 20 voters, so maybe there's still someone around to vote.
I'm going to let this poll go on till tonight before making a tie breaker. Hopefully by then we'll get another vote or two.
There's over 400 members on this site, and only 20 of them have voted...
That's no fun :'(
I'd presume we only have about 50-75 regulars, people who stop by at least once a week -- and maybe I'm being generous with that estimate. But, it's hard to tell because some people join up but don't log in when they visit.
We have a winner!
I personally, log in every day because I like visiting with everyone, and reading new things about Famicom.
Same with me, I log in to FW every time I turn on my computer...
...We should make a poll for that...
88 members have been active in the last week. 67 members have been active in the last 3 days. (Active meaning that they logged in and accessed the forum, not that they necessarily made a post).
Oh how I love copy+paste.

Nice. This is getting exciting. We've cut into the top 10!
ahh yeah this list is coming out fine after all.
I hope Kirby finishes in the top 3. GREAT gameplay, along with lots of power ups and lots of things to explore,great music, and it has battery backup to save your games! Really one of the biggest titles to grace the NES in my opinon. :P
Looks like it will do pretty good ;)
Zelda should at least make the top 5.

But it's waaaaay too easy. The only challenge in that entire game is the final boss fight (and maybe some of the minigames).
I'm liking the list pretty well... not sure Kirby will be here much longer though...
As I thought, there now needs to be a tiebreaker. The poll has been updated to include only two listings. Which becomes #9 - The impossible-to-find, blazing-fast-and-next-to-impossible-to-beat Summer Carnival '92 Recca or the FDS game that became the oddity that is US Super Mario Bros. 2, Yume Kojo Doki Doki Panic?
well i can tell you one thing
Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic!
or
Summer Carnival '92: Recca
are definitely NOT the best famicom games
but if you guys voted for them i guess they are....... lol
I haven't even played all the Famicom games never mind the Disk System games.
Wow is this the first tie breaker? Well I voted already so hopefully we'll settle this now.
I think it's the first tie breaker. I could have missed one before, though.
I also voted and a tendency is showing already.
I recall doing another tiebreaker, but that may have been prior to the top 25 polling. And this vote is close to a tie...wonder what happens if the tie-breaker poll ends with a tie.
Lets just flip a coin and post the video of it on youtube for everyone to see.
You've got to be kidding me. 11-11? Are they both going to be #8, then start with #7 in the next round?
Someone else please vote!
Let's just wait for another vote. There surely are more than 22 people around, right?
I'll bet someone who's never active did that just to piss the rest of us off :P
I think it was me that hadn't voted. There ya go.
Now where is Satoshi when we need him?
Got my vote in finally, looks like its pretty decided now which one lost..
Recca has to be one of my favorite Famicom games. mostly because of it's amazing amounts of sprites with no slowdown, and I just like my shmups. :P
Quick then! `Tis decided!
Can't wait for #8.
Wow an amazing turn around earlier it looked like doki doki was saved but now it's a tight finish!
Yeah, I hoped for Doki Doki Panic to stay, but it seems it's over at #9. Well, good enough. :D
:-X ooh, i screwed up the winning result...
Aw man, it's tied again!
Then we'll have to wait for yet another voter. :P
DDP is in the lead!
Okay! With a total of 27 votes, I think its about time to announce the #9th place winner. Narrowly beating out Recca by a single vote, the #9th best Famicom game is Yume Kojo Doki Doki Panic (FDS).
That makes the list to be:
#25 Return of Mario Bros. (FDS)
#24 Hino Tori - Houou Hen (FC)
#23 Tetris, Tengen version (FC)
#22 Holy Diver (FC)
#21 Antartic Adventure (FC)
#20 Balloon Fight (FC)

Again as a reminder, please don't announce what you voted for to avoid swaying those on the fence about their voting.
I'm not one to double post, but I think I should here. So far, we've got 18 votes. The previous poll got 27. That means that there are nine users that haven't vote yet. Please do so! These polls are not the same without as many people voting as possible! I'll leave this one open for another day or so before moving on or possibly doing another tie breaker.
Yeah, leave it open another day. We're not in a hurry. :)
Yeah I am usually pretty late voting most of the time :(
When it gets to the last 2 or 3, do you get to vote for your favourite Big Brother style?
This is a great idea, especially if repeated each year - it would track trends to some degree, or at least it'd be interesting to see shifts in opinions.
Can you explain Big Brother style? I have no clue. :-[
Me neither. I don't watch reality shows, and I haven't read 1984.
Time for a time breaker round. Which game gets 8th place? Do you go with crazy-fast-how-is-this-running-on-the-Famicom-and-goddamn-this-game-is-hard Recca or holy-wow-man-this-game-has-great-graphics Kirby?
When is this poll closing? 'Cause we already have a unanimous choice it seems.
Really? You're asking to close the poll 16 minutes after he opened it?
Oh, I didn't realize it was that early :P
He just close the poll after he votes and no one else. :P
Exactly ;D
Mutters under breath...(Kirby must die)..........
Lots of tie breakers now.
I voted, so close the poll! :D
Poor Recca. I knew him well.
The tiebreaker rounds are a little screwy. If Recca is chosen as number eight, Kirby should automatically become number seven. Then we go to a vote for number six.
Not necessarily...
A tiebreaker is just the same as a regular poll, but with just two choices..

Agreed.
Yeah that makes a lot more sense.
Hmm... sound right to me.
What has satoshi to say? He made the poll, so he decides.

I don't agree with this at all. These tiebreakers are the same as the regular polls, just with two votes. We all decide what games get placed where collectively.
So now there are 20 votes. We've got up to 27, so those holding out, please vote!
The poll maker has spoken, so let's carry on and vote.

No, but I'm not concerned. Those who have yet to vote have till tomorrow, then I'm carrying on with whatever has the most votes, even if its just by one.

Why is Contra still up there and doing quite well?
I don't remember it as THAT good a game. :-\
I love Contra, I play it at least once a week.
Same thing with Zelda 1 what's up with that
I agree with Manuel, Contra isn't that great
The important thing is that SMB and SMB3 are still in
I wonder if now its a battle between the hardcore first generation of games (Zelda, SMB1, Contra) versus the later, more fleshed out with graphics and sounds games.. (SMB3, Castlevania 3)...
Are we judging by fondness of nostalgiac games or by superior gameplay, music and graphics?
We're judging by what we like better. :D

Yeah, in my opinion Zelda's pretty medicore.
ROCKMAN 2 WILL BE NUMBER ONE. IT MUST.
Absolutely not, that spot is reserved for SMB3.
Also, when this is done someone should do write up and put it on the home page. I'll volunteer to do it if Satoshi doesn't want to.
MARIO DOESN'T HAVE A WHOLE GENRE OF MUSIC BASED AROUND HIS GAMES!

...Okay, maybe not an entire genre... But rockman beats mario in the msuic department badly.
That's not a genre, it's just people covering or writing songs about Rockman. Oh and those covers with vocals going right over the melody is stupid as hell. I agree the Rockman music is great, but Mario music is just as good IMO. SMB3 is so much more diverse in terms of level design and game play though, ans there is just a lot more to SMB3.
I said it wasn't a genre.
Oh thank god, contra might be the next to go. Rockman forever!
Top 5 now. Interesting.
I just hope what I voted for will be #5. ;)

I do plan to do something for this. I'd like to hear what you think I should do. I might be willing to do a collaborate write up with you where you write a "from another point of view" or something. PM me with your thoughts.
There seems to be no love for the game celebrating an anniversary today :'(
Well, place 5 is enough love I would say. :D
I voted Contra for 5th place. :)
I think I could easily call the top 3, that is, unless of course, there is a major change in the voting current
24 voters. Let's go on to #4!
Man, top #5 and only 2 of them are games I'd care to play for more than a few minutes. Oh well that's what I get for liking RPGs.
rpgs r teh suxorz :P
Only RPG's I know of are Mother/Earthbound, Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.
And Doraemon...don't forget Doraemon :P
I'd play all those games except Contra (hint hint) for a while...Rockman is just damn hard :P
I'd never played a Rockman/Megaman game until I got my Famicom w/ Rockman 3..and I can't beat any of the bosses :o
How is Contra still on here. I mean, it's fine, but.. it's not THAT great.
Yeah I hate Contra (hint hint) I can't believe it's still here either...until n-....
Nevermind :-X
Fuck you guys, I love Contra! It's far better than Zelda.
Hey, in my eyes, Zelda isn't that great
IMO
1. SMB3
2. SMB
3. Zelda
4. Rockman (Only because it's hard for me :P)
5. Contra
nintendodork's results guess is probably pretty close.
That's the way it should end ;)
But it's also just my personal list
Rockman 2 isn't that hard. I mean, even I beat it. :P
The difficulty was one of the most appealing points of the series to me... but different tastes for different people, eh?
Yeah.
Rockman is the series everybody finds difficult, but I don't. :-\
Other games I find difficult, but others say different.
Maybe I'm special. :D
You are special indeed!
It's that good kind of difficulty where it's not impossible to beat a level, but the difficulty keeps you on your toes.
That's a good way to put it, Rogles.
Gamers nowadays are wimps... if the game doesn't finish itself they won't play it.
Haha!
Games tend to be a lot easier these days, many of them too easy, that's true.
I wouldn't mind it so much if some of the biggest offenders were Mario and Zelda... they're basically all I ever look forward to any more. :(
I agree with that, most games are too easy these days. And Rogles put Rockman's difficulty level in the right category ;)

Yeah, finally #4.
It becomes more intersting every day.
Quote from: son_ov_hades on December 24, 2008, 07:31:35 am
Super Mario Bros. 1 and 3 are easily top 5 FC games!
He totally called that! I wonder which one will be #1...
This was a great idea!
I don't understand one thing though, how come you put in Rockman 2 and 5 instead of just one of them? Or all of them..
Maybe they're generally considered the best in the series.
Oh, that makes sense I guess. I'm not an avid Rockman fan, so I wouldn't know :P
I'm a fan, but I've only played the first two... Hence my rabid support for Rockman 2.
When this all started we had a chance to nominate games. Maybe no one nominated them. I think there was an earlier elimination round to narrow it to 25 games, too. They may have been here. I'll have to look for that thread, it's gotta be here somewhere...
I don't think I was here then.
If Rogles wasn't here than I wasn't either. I joined almost 2 weeks after him.
Rockman 2 is definitely the best, but 9 is so close.
The other Rockmans didn't make it to the final rounds.
Wow a Capcom title made it to the top four but it's surrounded by Nintendo titles.....I would be scared!
Rockman can't be scared. He's a tough robot. ;)
He might be tough but he's going out this round ;)
Probably. It might be an interesting fight with Zelda, though.
Rockman looks like #4, Zelda #3, Super Mario Bros #2 and Super Mario Bros 3 is probably #1.
As most people here know, I'm an absolute Rockman nut. I looooooooooooove the Rockman/Megaman series so much. All nine classic series games are among my favorite games ever. Megaman 2 is the pinnacle of the series because it improved upon what Capcom did in Rockman 1 while retaining everything that made it good. Every other Rockman game is good because it follows the same formula of Rockman 2. Even though it looks like this is where the train stops for Rockman, it's still #1 in my book.
Amen.

I think we all know how this is going to turn out. Unless a bunch of people suddenly join and turn the polls.
How is Zelda still in.
I dont like Zelda 1, but Zelda 2 is quite fun.
I'm surprised Satoshi didn't put both of them in.
Zelda is still in there it defined the action RPG genre, which gives it a historical importance. Unlike many historically important video games, though, Zelda is still fun to play. It has aged very, very well.
This can also be said for SMB1. There are better platformers out there, but SMB1 is still a fun game.
Joe is very right about that, it's also like, one of the first RPGs ever.
Zelda is awesome; it definitely deserves to be in the top 3. It is the ultimate fantasy adventure on the famicom; the Hyrule Fantasy! haha. I can see that it may be too hard for some, but it is definitely a pioneer. Many good things have came from zelda too! One being the welfare of Nintendo as hardcore zelda fans keep buying new games, like me! I'm the guy who bought that black gamecube that came with the zelda collection disk. Zelda also continues to give on the wii, if you know what I mean ;).
We should do a write-in vote and replace Zelda 1 with Ocarina of Time.
It'll spice things up!
Boooo :P
This is strictly FC/FDS.
Anything else would just be unfair
har har you guys are funny
You know, seeing this poll through now seems sort of redundant, but hey, I suppose I should update the poll one more time and let the obvious answer be told between "which is better - SMB1 or SMB3?"
Of course we have to vote for #2 and 1 in one final poll.

Wait a sec....how do you guys want to do the final vote? After Zelda is out, it will be between SMB1 and SMB3 for second overall place. Whatever one gets second, the other would automatically get first, right?
The other way to do it is to put all 25 games back on the list and give a final round asking what the single best game on the system is of all the entries. Either way, I think SMB3 will win easily, but I'm just asking here.

Option number 2 doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. it would invalidate this whole thing we've been doing.
Yeah, don't make it so complicated! :P
Just do the first option. When it's down between SMB and SMB3, put SMB as 2nd when it loses, then just automatically make SMB3 1st

Who will win? Will SMB1 get ANY votes....? it all comes down to this!
Looks quite obvious already. But let's wait another day to gather at least 20 vots I'd say.
How could Mario 1 out beat Mario 3?
Mario 1 didn't beat out Mario 3. It's coming in 2nd place.

Which could imply that he was voting in reverse this whole time, although highly unlikely, he may be a little ignorant ;)
I think he wants SMB3 to win, but he voted for it..so it could win lol (If that makes any sense :D)
Smb3 is definitely the one of the funnest games on the console. However, the challenge fades over time. Someone needs to make a hack; something along the lines of smb2j. It can be called Super Mario Bros. 3.2 Japan version for Super Players!!! hahaha. Man, that would be really cool. :D It's kinda strange if you think about it; there are many smb1 hacks but no smb3 hacks. You'd think that the obvious favorite would get more attention. Maybe it is due to the fact that is more complex than smb1. idk.
Yeah, re-reading that, it's possible he means, "How could Mario 1 ever beat out Mario 3?"
I think he meant to say "How could Mario 1 win over Mario 3?"
Wow... I was just shocked to see that Mario 1 winning. Yeah I meant to say "How is Mario 1 winning compared to Mario 3?"
Mario 1 was winning at one time? I figured Mario 3 would just be first all the way through, like it is now.
I think you guys are confused. This last poll is to determine which is the SECOND BEST Famicom game, not the first. The game you DON'T vote for is what you are declaring to be #1.
If you think Super Mario Bros. 1 is BETTER THAN Super Mario Bros. 3, then you would vote for Super Mario Bros. 3
Get it?
The way the voting looks right now, SMB1 is second and SMB3 is first.
If enough of you guys want, I'll reset the voting so you can re-cast your vote.
I think it's fine the way it is. I read correctly and voted accordingly.
Go SMB3!! We all know it's the best Fami game, I'm glad SMB1 got that far though.
I shed a tear for my personal favourite, Hogan's Alley :(
Mario 3 is more fun than Mario IMO opinion because its longer and has a different atmosphere in each world not like Mario 1 where its either night, day, underground, water or castle. Mario 3 has everything from an Ice World to a Desert World.
This final round is a no surprise....congrats SMB3 you are a winner.
Those Spineys and flies must be having fun in those pipes!

I'll be starting my write up soon. If anyone would like to add their two cents (maybe a good solid paragraph or two) on any particular game, please PM me with your words. I want to do my write-up with each game being expressed from my point of view and then a fourm members, sort of how IGN has another writer add their opinion for the last paragraph for a lot of their reviews.
Doing it this way gives the reader a broader scope of the game as it wouldn't just be what one person thinks. I'll credit any contributors.
Very cool poll! Took a heck of a long time but it was totally worth it.
Thanks for doing this! :)
Should we make this a semi-annual thing?
Wow its finally over! :P
We could do it once a year I guess.
How long was it between the first poll and the last one? Like four months or something?
I loved the poll...great job! :D ;D :)
Let's do 25-50! :P
I thought of a way do to it faster. I'll eloborate later, when I thought about it more. ;)
