#BGE2020 - Round 1 - Pool 118

[This Old Neon]

Welcome to the first round of #BGE2020 pools!

Each game is randomly seeded into pools using the set generator at Random.org. There's no seeding, no ranking, and no preference or prioritization.

The results of the pools will determine how each game stacks up in the elimination rounds, coming later this year.

HOW TO VOTE

Voting is ranked, but it's not super intuitive, so listen up.

• You have 6 total votes to distribute.
• You can only select up to 3 options.
• You can only give each option up to 3 votes.
• NOTE: The number you pick is not the RANK of your choice (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd), but the number of VOTES you're giving it.
• The more votes (bigger numbers) a game gets, the better for that game.

EXAMPLES

• You could pick three games and order them by giving them 3, 2, and 1 votes.
• If you like three games equally, you could give them 2, 2, and 2 votes.
• If you only like two games, you could give them 3 and 3 votes (or 3 and 2, etc.).

This gives you a lot of granularity for how you assign your votes and thereby a lot of influence over which games can do well. Use your power wisely!

If you have questions, ask before voting!

All-in on Destiny of an Emperor here. Lots of people assume this is Koei, but it's Capcom and has the soundtrack to match! Fantastic NES RPG.

I had to give props to Pitfall! for being a fun and difficult collectibles game. I never could complete it...

Also gave Sonic 1 some votes though i think Sonic, in general, has problems and this entry isn’t nearly as good as its sequel but it’s still pretty fun so there you go.

RollerCoaster Tycoon is outdone by its sequel, but it is nevertheless fantastic and infinitely playable to this day (although, again, little reason not to play RCT2). One of my favorite sim games of all time.
