Nintendo Powers Top 200....(REALLY bad list)

[MegaDrive20XX]

and this is why we don't give guns to monkies...

[tholly]

It's been some long-time goal of mine to buy the NP 200th issue. When's that issue coming out?

And yes, that list is...interesting.

...and it has been a long time goal of mine to buy Nintendo Power #2.....it's the only one I need, so if anyone has it, I'll take it.....

[Bluteg]

I have compiled the top 5:

5. Pokemon Red
4. Pokemon Blue
3. Nintendogs: Daschund and Friends
2. Nintendogs: Lab and Friends
1. Nintendogs: Chihuahua

..sad thing is that could very well happen or be a very close guess

Correct.

I seriously imagine the top 10 to have DS games, just to hype them up. I still love Nintendo but they seem to do stupid shit like that. Just look at the last "list" in the 100th issue. The issue was published about a year after the Nintendo 64's launch. Super Mario 64 was #1 and the list was full of 1st gen N64 games. They put Turok (#25) and some N64 soccer game (#27) before FUCKING EARTHBOUND (#60).

[Jumpman Jr.]

Meh, the list isn't THAT bad. Those games aren't the best, but thats why they are in the 200-120 range.

Well, that's not too bad, because they were somewhat right with Mario 64. Nine years later, it probably still belongs in the top 10.

[Kamino]

what a bunch of shit.

OK guys, let's post what you think SHOULD (not will) make the top Nintendo 10. Off the top of my head (in no order):

Zelda: A Link to the Past
Super Mario World
Goldeneye 007
Super Mario 64
Mike Tysons Punch-Out!!
The Legend of Zelda
Metroid
Rygar (every list should have one not expected)
Contra
Super Mario 3

Edit: Let me update this and add Castlevania and Mega Man.

[ALAKA]

Rygar (every list should have one not expected)

actually that's #143 on this horribly put together list.

[Zap!]

I love how half of these won't make, or place very differently in the top 300 list whenever that comes around.

Hopefully, Nintendo will still be around by the time issue #300 comes out (8 more years or so).

I would say my list, but I tend to favor my N64, and NES, so I would leave out a lot, but I KNOW they SHOULD have OoT, SM64, and Goldeneye somewhere in there.

[Super Mario Fan]

Personally, I think a "top 200" list is way too big for anything, but I'll refrain from commenting until I see the final list. However, if Zelda: A Link to the Past doesn't make the top 5 or 10, I'm not buying the Revolution.

Thank you. That made me almost fall out of chair laughing. I don't know why, but I thought it was hilarious.

[Malon_Forever]

[CYRiX]

91:Mario Tennis-N64

That was one damn good game

[Snapple]

Those new additions aren't that bad. Super Punchout should be higher, and Killer 7 should be lower, in my opinion.

Luigi's Mansion is too high. It's not a bad game, but it's rather simplistic and short to be called better than a lot of the excellent games before it.

Th 200-120 ones are all over the place though. Some ranked way too high, some ranked WAY too low.

Not a single Mega Man or Final Fantasy game yet? I guess they're yet to come.

I don't get too worked up about lists too much though. They're so subjective, and incorporate so many games that really aren't comparable, that there's no way you'll ever be able to make a list that can please everyone.

Mega Man X was #103.
