The other series with lots of representation are Pokémon, The Legend of Zelda, and Final Fantasy.
I'd love to see a Final Fantasy one. That's a nice series with lots of variety

Kind of unfair for games that don't star Tony Hawk though.

Tough to know which games are sports games.

Considering there's a sports genre I don't see how that's difficult.

Did everyone who nominated games indicate the genre of each game? Or are you suggesting I undertake the totally not difficult task of categorizing 800 entries for the purpose of a side-event?

I can eyeball it, but some games might be left out.

Can we have a "best unofficial game" side event? There were some genuinely amazing titles released last year based on existing engines. Super Mario 3Mix and Hyper Metroid being 2 of them and I'd like to discover more through such a project.
