If you have been living together with your mother, you may have felt a little embarrassed to give her a gift or even express your gratitude, but now that you are living alone, you will realize how great your mother is. Many people may have taken the opportunity to express their gratitude at least once a year, whether it be by presenting a gift that they think will make their mothers happy, such as a carnation, treating them to a meal, or simply spending time with them. Mother's Day" campaigns, limited edition products, and events were held in various places, and the same is true in the world of video games!

In second place was " Dragon Quest III: And to the Legend ", which I also voted for, with 16% of the vote! In addition to being a legendary title, many people probably have a strong impression of the opening scene of the game.
Among these, the third most unique was probably " Touhou Mibunroku ". It is an adventure game with command selection, which was a familiar game in those days... Why did it rank high in the "What do you think of 'Okaasan'? I don't want to spoil the game's ranking in the "What do you think of 'mother'?

This is a theme that has been used in the past to tie game genres together. The "racing game" genre is now somewhat well established, but in the NES era, there were many different types of racing games. There were many challenging titles on the market, including the standard rear-view view, as well as those that looked down, vertical scrolling, side scrolling, and more. Because this is a genre in which you are competing for every second, I think there are many people who have played these games over and over again with great enthusiasm!

I voted for Konami's " Wai Wai World 2 SOS! Parsley Castle " by Konami! Although the game genre itself is not a "racing game" title, World 6's " Chikki Racer! Mach Rickle GO, GO, GO!" in World 6 was my favorite part of the racing game!
