Super Mario 3D World is very missing from your 2013 snubs list. It's almost certainly 2013's strongest snub, and unlike 3D Land, it has an actual fanbase outside of Board 8. Regarding the Ace Attorneys, I think it's easy for us to underestimate just how little everyone else cares about anything Ace Attorney-related except Phoenix himself, and that includes all the Ace Attorney games.

Thanks to B8s ... indifference to Miyazakis games
Board 8 loves Bloodborne, though! I believe it had the most B8 nominations of any game without a specific nomination rally of any sort this time around. Of course, we love Fire Emblem, too, and more importantly, bracket votes trump all in debatable matches.

Allen was apparently taking Metacritic scores into consideration when seeding the contest
I still haven't seen any evidence to support this claim, besides the vague statements on the nomination form, which I'm convinced only mattered for selecting which second/third installments of series to leave out. Things like F/GO's 8-seed and SFV's 10-seed don't exactly suggest that Metacritic scores were otherwise a notable factor in seeding this contest. Likewise, GTAV was able to secure a 1-seed in 2015, so even considering that Metacritic scores mattered for seeding back then, it repeating that on nominations alone in a much less competitive field is not hard to believe.
