Congratulations to MMF Freeway, Flavahbeast, Capsaicin, Exquisite Tea, and Nephrite for their success! VideoGames said he would have av certs for you if you should so want.

Thanks to the small crowd that participated this time; it admittedly wasn't as big as I hoped it would be, but it was still a fun little experience! Thanks especially to the three people that posted during the reveals; Olive! I was rooting for you especially because you picked the correct answer for the last question but alas. :(

Well you can take that back once I say I don't even like Persona, and apparently not enough to know when it came out.

Congrats to the winners btw! :)

My mistake was thinking too hard about what I thought people would pick instead of trying blatant favorites.

You do not look terribly noble and yet I feel troubled, attracted, bewitched.

I'm loving kicking myself for not putting Nintendo as the best games company I completely forgot about them.

I simultaneously did better and worse than I expected. This was a lot of fun thanks for doing this.

Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.
Aw man, was on track to win it all and then completely faceplanted by forgetting Andromeda.

Still fun though. Thanks for running it, OP! :)

Yeah, I thought the worm would have turned there, but apparently a few shortages aren't enough to shake that faith. There were several where I couldn't even guess a single likely pick though so I expected a pretty mediocre score. Still fun to see what happens.

Haha! Well done everyone! I did not realise so many Nintendo answers would be the winner. I did miss out on most of the Nintendo strong years (I went from a NES to a WiiU) so I do not have the same reverie and completely forgot about a lot of their output.

The winners shall get their gift certificates on Monday the 31st! :D

Nintendo's not actually bad, I'm just not their target audience so I guess my own confirmation bias was at fault. :D

If you are into platformers, party games and what not you probably can't find better than Mario/Zelda/Splatoon etc.
