March 2024 is already in the middle of the year. Many students may have just finished their graduation ceremony and are preparing for their new lives. As you are probably feeling a mixture of anticipation and anxiety as you prepare for your new environment, it is important to calm down from time to time! One thing that will allow you to forget about everything and immerse yourself in your new environment is a video game, but there may be people who have already packed up or sent their video game consoles to their new home and don't have them at hand. Retro games that can be played in a variety of environments are convenient for such situations, and many NES titles can be played on the Nintendo Switch and smartphones. Speaking of the NES, we are in the midst of the NES 40 th anniversary! And speaking of the 40th anniversary of the NES, we have the weekly fun of the " NES National Poll! This week, the results of the 34th "What do you think of the legend? The results of the 34th "Legendary" poll have been announced this week!
The top three are overwhelming! The 34th results are in!
The results of the 34th "NES People's Choice Poll" have been announced on the NES 40th Anniversary Campaign website. The results of the "NES National Poll" have been announced, and the top 20 are now available on the NES 40th Anniversary Campaign website! Most of the titles have the word "legend" in the title, but all of the ranked titles are "legendary. However, the top three were overwhelmingly ranked in the top three this time! This time, the top three received an overwhelming number of votes! In first place was "The Legend of Zelda " with 35.4% of the vote, followed by " Dragon Quest III: And Now the Legend..." with 25.1% of the vote, and "The Legend of Shadows " with 12% of the vote! The Legend of Zelda", which I also voted for, is the first title in the "Legend of Zelda" series, which is still loved around the world today, and not only does it have "Legend" in the title, but it is the title that started the "Legend" and is one of Nintendo's representative series. It is also one of Nintendo's most popular series, so it was an easy choice for the No. 1 position. The second-place winner, "Dragon Quest III: And to the Legend..." has " And to the Legend..." in its subtitle, and more than anything, the moment the true meaning of the title was revealed was a moving moment..! It's too late to spoil the story, but I'll avoid spoilers! Third place goes to "Shadow Legend," an Famicom port of Taito's arcade action masterpiece that was very popular in the arcades . These three titles were so strong in this year's ranking that "The Legend of Momotaro: PEACHBOY LEGEND" (No. 4) and later titles received less than 5% of the vote, which is an unusual result! Saint Seiya Golden Legend " (No. 8) and " Saint Seiya Golden Legend: The Complete Arc " (No. 14) are both sequels, but the gameplay is quite different, so we recommend playing both!
One of the classic genres! What do you think of "action games"? Polling has begun!
The 34th edition is over, which means the 35th edition has begun. Voting for the 35th "Famicom National Vote" will begin on March 14, 2024 (Thursday)! The theme of this year's poll is "What is the most popular action game? The theme this time is "What do you think of action games? The theme for this year's poll is "Action Game", which is one of the most popular game genres. It is one of the standard game genres. Especially for the Famicom (NES), there were not only original games, but also many masterpieces and lost works that were forced to be action games based on original works, so there are quite a few "action games" alone. It is difficult to narrow it down to one title, but please cast a clean vote for the "action game" that you are most attached to! Again, you can vote from the "NES National Vote" page on the campaign website 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 35th "NES Reunion Vote" will end at 11:59 a.m. on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, and the results will be announced on Thursday, March 21, 2024! I was really torn, but I voted for " ROCKMAN4: A New Ambition " because I got hooked on the NES early on after it came to my house! " I voted for "ROCKMAN4: A New Ambition!!! The Dustman stage music is very good!
