Well this won't be a true popularity contest. Currently, Super Mario World is tops on the list at 72%. That doesn't mean it will be the number 1 game in our Top 200 article.

The point of the poll was to gather an aggregate of what gamers believe are the best games. We needed a jump off point. After the voting deadline has passed on January 17th , the people over at the SNES Hub forum will have a lengthy discussion on how we are going to rank these games. Excellent obscure games not mentioned in the poll may get mentioned in these discussions, so no, this won't be a popularity contest in my estimation.

For the record, anyone reading this that has a good understanding of the Super Nintendo library can be involved in the writing process as we try to dissect these different games. The forum topic is here for anyone that wants to get involved.
