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!

Doom 64 is very good. I'm sad I haven't played more games in this bracket!

Fire emblem three houses is fantastic. I still vouch for NSMBU, it's a great Mario platformer with completely uninspired music and visual style.

That is honestly probably true, but by that point I was suffering from NSMB fatigue and just rushed through it. Meanwhile I loved the
Luigi U follow-up. This thread actually reminded me to nominate it. Really enjoyed those short, tricky levels.

Layers of Fear is pretty brilliant. I think I’m the only one around here who’s played it though.
Gyruss is pretty awesome too.
No more nightmares, I’ve seen them all. From the day I was born, they’ve haunted my every move.

The NSMB series gets too much unneeded flack. Every entry brought something new to the table. Art style and music be damned.

The New Super Mario Bros series is the Final Fantasy XIII-XV series of the Super Mario Bros. series.
Three Houses is not the strongest Fire Emblem game, but it's good enough to take top votes in a relatively weak pool.
