Now that we have online patches lots of games literally improve with age.

Another day where two seemingly unrelated Pokemon share a link through another game. Farfetch'd and Gligar are the two Pokemon who were given as rewards for beating Pokemon Stadium 2 (each with an exclusive move).

Mew/Gyarados

Gligar/Farfetch'd

Lmao at my deviations between the two.

Who stopped?

Nocturnal 2097 (Long Version)

Les Enfants du Paradis

I like this trend of nominating Einhander songs nearly every year now. But Badlands is my least preferred of the 3 that have been in so far, and when you do this to the match... Yeah, RIP. It's fine if it wins though.

Les Enfants du Paradis started cool and I immediately had this thought of "please don't let vocals start and ruin this". But then they didn't and it stayed solid.

If Loss isn't eligible (if Zen is going to count it as a vote for Crtl+Alt+Delete as a whole) then replace it with... Homestuck I guess.

Iron Jugulis/Meltan
Dustox/Bunnelby
Iron Bundle/Magneton
Braviary/Zangoose

Yeah uhh the left side has 5 Pokemon who I actively dislike so this is one of the most blatant cases of "my tastes are the opposite of popular opinion".

Also Muk is actually kind of cool for a gen 1 Pokemon, aside from having an Alolan Form who's really good the original has also secretly been getting better over the generations.

I crashed early last night and didn't finish (or start) my ranking. I wasn't going to ask for an extension because it was my own fault for procrastinating again, but since the host was also late and hasn't posted the new topic yet, I'm gonna take this opportunity to post my list (I hope the results haven't been tallied yet).

Album comments: This album has cool electronic sounds and I can totally understand why it's popular. However, my problem is that it's too slow for me. My musical tastes tend to favor faster songs, and in an album like this it makes it difficult for me to stay engaged or to differentiate the songs from each other. As a result I expect that my ranking will be fairly opposite to most people's who are able to appreciate the slower songs more. I just can't handle them, unfortunately.

I think I'm going to die of old age before ever understanding the appeal of Forgotten Land's soundtrack to anyone who's listened to even a single other Kirby game.

Yeah, totally fine! No impact to me what-so-ever.

No option for "yeah, that would be even more convenient for me". Smh it's like the Poll of the Day front page writers designed this poll.

Phew, I was sort of dreading match 3 today because I thought that it would be a tough decision for me. But then I started listening and realized that I mixed up the Grandmaster and Fortress Leader songs in my head, and this match isn't close at all.

Well match 1 is once again 2 Pokemon that I decently like vs. 1 Pokemon that I really like. So Tyrantrum has to march onwards to round 3 with with Growlithe hanging on to its leg and then hopefully steps on it next round.

Match 4 sucks because I love both Chatot and Regice. I'm gonna say that I'll be happy with either winner but really I'll be sad that one of them can't advance.

Ads are blocking the top of the screen so much that i cannot click on the navigation buttons without refreshing the page.

Fuck fandom.

I reported one of these on 4/27 and my feedback ticket hasn't been addressed yet. Since this goes through the feedback system, if I needed to report another one, I wouldn't be able to since my first ticket is still open. Great system they have here.

What the fuck does a "smooth transition" even mean? You used to be able to do a thing and now you won't be able to do it. There's no in-between (let alone a smooth one).

Team A

Team B is mostly NFE trash (even though, in a vacuum, I don't dislike 3 of them), but team A has a real Pokemon on it (Jynx). I'd vote Jynx alone over a team of the other 9 together.

Ampharos/Snorlax
Vulpix/Mismagius
Aurorus/Vaporeon
Comfey/Archen

Match 2 is evil... It's two very above-average Pokemon against one of my overall top 10, which is paired with a Pokemon that I actively dislike. But knowing what the format of this contest is, it will eventually go back to being 1v1/FFA and I'll be able to vote for Mismagius on its own again, so it needs to win to get there, in spite of its baggage.

You can do local wifi to transfer to a phone and then upload from there I guess

Yes, but that's still time consuming compared to the near-instant Twitter uploads.

Also I never got that to work with my phone the few times that I attempted it (I could try to figure it out if that becomes the next best option, but I won't like it). It wouldn't be an issue if they were merely replacing Twitter with a different hosting site, but it looks like they're cutting off uploads entirely. Facebook does not count as a viable alternative and you know it.

Not sure where you're getting the hate part.

I get all of my modern gaming news from GameFAQs message boards, so the perspectives are usually more negative than they are outside.

Was the 1+2 remake "successful"? I thought it was another one of the (many) remakes that most people claimed to hate because it was too different from the originals.

I'm tentatively interested because short time trial challenges in games are always my thing. I wonder if it will have online leaderboards. I also expect that this game will be big on Cyberscore (fan-made score/leaderboard website that I'm part of) so there will definitely be competition even if there are no ingame leaderboards.

I thought about the moving racing game, but I couldnt find an example of it.

Lol, these were my first thought as well but I thought that there were too many examples for me to conclusively know which one was the "best".

Hammering in My Head
Push It
Dumb
Temptation Waits
When I Grow Up
The Trick Is to Keep Breathing
Sleep Together
Special
I Think I'm Paranoid
You Look So Fine
Wicked Ways
Medication

When I Grow Up - I feel bad putting this so low because I had it higher up at first and then kept putting other stuff above it (although I did shuffle a few things afterwards). It's one of the "softer" songs on this album and I ended up ranking the "harder" stuff higher. But this is still my style and I do like it, it's just against tough competition on this album. I think that there is an alternate reality where I put this at #1 and leave everything else in the exact same order and that would still be alright.

My list is admittedly pretty first-party-heavy (as are many of the ones posted) but even then I still couldn't fit everything.

Some of the snubs:
Wario Land 1
TCG 1
Game Boy Camera (good catch, I probably would not have thought to include this)
Game & Watch Gallery 3
Catrap
F-1 Race
Some variant of Tetris (original and DX both have valid arguments)
Probably at least one of the Bomberman games
Donkey Kong '94

And I also acknowledge that there are a handful of bigger name games that I haven't played (or at least played enough) that probably would make my list if I had more experience with them.

Is this not being split by era?

+5 Wario Land 2
+4 Mario Tennis
+4 Pokemon Pinball
+3 Pokemon GSC
+3 The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX
+3 The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
+2 The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages
+2 Wario Land 3
+2 Kirby's Dream Land
+2 Pokemon Puzzle Challenge
+1 Rhino Rumble
+1 Kirby's Pinball Land
+1 Kirby's Dream Land 2
+1 Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble
+1 Game & Watch Gallery 2
+1 Walt Disney's Alice in Wonderland
+1 Pokemon Trading Card Game 2
+1 Disney's The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy
+1 Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
+1 Trip World

I'm not happy about how many games I had to cut from my brainstorm list to narrow this down to 20. Combining GB with GBC may have been a cruel decision.

Retag

Gengar/Raikou
Hippowdon/Scorbunny

2nd match was the hardest one. Hippowdon #1 and Cloyster #2. And you unintentionally set up a Sands Day pairing.

My impression of this game is that it was a high quality game similar to the Spider-Man PS5 example in the opening post. Am I wrong about that?

Rayquaza/Coalossal

Crawdaunt is the only unfortunate loss while Quaxly is the only unfortunate carry.
