BOTTOM 64 — Poll 19

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

Warsong (perhaps the best Genesis game) is much more compelling to me than a remake of an admittedly good NES game.
I’ve been waiting for the sun to come up. Waiting for the showers to stop. Waiting for the penny to drop. One time. And I’ve been standing in a cloud of plans. Standing on the shifting sands. Hoping for an open hand. One time.

You may be thinking of Metroid: Zero Mission, as Super Metroid is not a remake of any of the first one game. It takes place after the events in the NES game and the whole Prime trilogy from a chronological perspective.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist the opportunity for fun thread parallels. No malice intended. :ninja: )

(Oh, and snark aside, I agree and am voting for Warsong.)
