| Nintendo Power is ridiculously biased towards their first-party games (Mario, Zelda, Metroid). There's not a single second-party game on here aside from Smash Bros, which has first-party involvement. Seriously, no Pokemon, Earthbound, Fire Emblem... it's really a pity that they rank purely nostalgic pleasures like the original Punch-Out over scores of more imaginative or revolutionary games. I'm not saying that Punch-Out is bad or unenjoyable, but to list it above games that have changed the face of their genre or are crafted well enough to elicit real emotion... I'm sorry, this list just pissed me off when it came out and it still pisses me off now. |
