In Tokyo, it snowed a little while ago, but then the first day of spring came and the temperature exceeded 20 degrees Celsius. Even though it has been a mild winter, I have always imagined February to be a month of cold days, so this winter has been somewhat strange for me. And because of the many warm days, pollen has already begun to fly, making it a harsh season for hay fever sufferers! If you step outside, the pollen will make you sneeze and have a runny nose, so the best way to avoid this is to stay indoors! If you are at home, think positively of it as a chance to play a lot of games as you are making progress! There are many hot titles that have already been released or are about to be released, but if you still spend a lot of time at home, there is no better way to have a lot of titles to play. Then, as the saying goes, it's a good idea to play some great retro games. The hardware on which many classic and obscure retro games were released is the Famicom (NES)! Among them, the " NES National Poll " is a weekly fun event, and the results of the 30th "What is the number 2? The results of the 30th "What do you think of "2"?
The second in the series is full of masterpieces! The results of the 30th "What do you think of "2"?
The results of the "NES National Poll" 30th "What do you think of '2'? 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 second title in a series of hit games is also a classic, and the second title in a series has a high percentage of great titles!
Dragon Quest II: Gods of Evil " came in first place with 23.9% of the vote, followed by " Super Mario Bros. 2 " with 20.1%, and " ROCKMAN 2: Dr. Wily's Mystery " with 10.8% of the vote. The top three are the second in the popular series and received many votes. A convincing lineup. By the way, "The 2nd Super Robot Wars," which I voted for, came in 23rd place! Too bad!
Now, the nice thing about the "NES Referendum" is that among the many second titles in the series, there were also some that were not so popular. While Capcom's classic shooter " 1942 " came in at No. 13, the most noteworthy title was " St. Satan II: The Devil Strikes Back" at No. 8! which is still active today! This is a masterpiece (or lost work?) based on the heavy metal band " St. Kemma II," which is still active even today. The action game based on the "St. KUNEMA II," a heavy metal band that is still active today, is unexpectedly ranked in the top 10. The player character in this game, Demon Kogure (now Demon Lord), is 100,61 years old, but his appearance has not changed since then. The fact that many attractive titles of this type were released for the Famicom (NES) and ranked high in the "NES National Poll" is also a good thing, don't you think?
The best titles are also well-designed! What do you think of the "Best Packaging"? Voting has begun!
The 30th edition is over, which means the 31st edition has begun. Voting for the 30th "NES Referendum" will begin on February 15, 2024 (Thursday)! The theme of this year's poll is "What was the best package? The theme this time is "What was the best package?
Many of the classic NES titles are sold not only as individual cassettes, but also in beautiful packaging. We have also previously conducted a "What was the best instruction manual? As we have done before in our "What was the best instruction manual?" survey, we are sure that you have all sat in the backseat of your car on the way home after receiving your NES console, looking at the package as well as the instruction manual and thinking about the world of the game you are about to play! The cool design on the front of course, but the game description on the back was also very unique. Please cast your clean vote for the title whose package you still remember!
Once again, you can cast your vote by logging in to your Nintendo account and going to the "NES National Vote" page on the campaign website. 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 31st "NES Referendum" will end at 11:59 a.m. on Wednesday, February 21, 2024, and the results will be announced on Thursday, February 22, 2024!
The author voted for " Dragon Quest IV: The Leaders "! I voted for "Dragon Quest IV: The Leaders" because of the cool heroes and dragons on the front, but also because of the "AI" on the back, which I thought would be a feature of this title, and I felt the future of the game. However, I do not allow Cliff's zaraki to Despizarro!
