The results of the 21st "NES People's Choice Poll" have been announced. The results of the "NES National Poll" have been announced, and the top 20 are now available on the NES 40th Anniversary Campaign website! The top titles in this year's poll were very close in terms of the percentage of votes received, indicating that the instruction manuals of the time were all very elaborate.

The " Legend of Zelda " came in first place with 9.6% of the votes, followed by the latest title in the series, "The Legend of Zelda " which will be released in 2023! The latest title in the series, "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom," will be released in 2023 and is the first title in the series that has been a worldwide hit. I think this is one of the reasons why the "Legend of Zelda" received so many votes. We will live until the full story is revealed!

The next two were " Dragon Quest III: The Legend " (No. 2) and " Super Mario Brothers " (No. 3). I remember that the instruction manuals I have read for at least the top 20 titles were all unique, with rich illustrations, elaborate compositions, and explanations of the story's worldview.

Even though it is difficult to obtain the actual manuals nowadays, official manuals from those days are available in PDF format, and the list of Nintendo Famicom software on the Famicom 40th Anniversary Campaign website includes pages based on the manuals of Nintendo software from those days! In addition to confirming how to use the controls, the manuals are also very read able, so check out the manuals for the Famicom titles you have played or are thinking of playing in the future!

The 21st edition is over, which means the 22nd edition has begun. Voting for the 22nd "NES Referendum" will begin on December 7, 2023 (Thursday)! The theme of this year's poll is "What do you think of the "secret technique "? The theme this time is "What do you think of 'backstage tricks'? There have been a variety of "subterfuges" in recent games that are activated under certain conditions or by entering certain commands. There were a lot of things that were either positive or negative.

In those days, there was a book of secret tr icks that came with the first issue of the new year of a certain game magazine or was sold separately from the strategy book. I miss those days. There were so many "tricks" for the Famicom (NES), from the famous to the minor ones, and I'd like to cast a clean vote for the one I'm most attached to among them!

This time again, you can vote from the "NES National Vote" page on the campaign site after logging in to your Nintendo account. If you forget the title of the game, don't worry, you can enter a part of the title and a list of candidates will appear. The voting period for the 22nd "NES Referendum" is until December 13, 2023 (Wed.) at 11:59 p.m., and the results will be announced on December 14, 2023 (Thu. )!

I was torn between the world's most famous command, but I voted for " ROCKMAN3: The Last Days of Dr. Wiley " from the "ROCKMAN" series, as I did last time! I voted for "ROCKMAN3: The Last Days of Dr. Wiley" from the "ROCKMAN" series! Holding down the right cross key on the II controller made it possible to make a high jump and not die even if you fell into a hole! I did it with cellophane tape to hold it together!
