Some weird alignment of the gaming stars has allowed me a single vote for Batsugun. The odds here are staggering.

Unless you can sway Rad back to the forum for a day to cast a special vote. :)

Marble Madness has great music and I recommend these buttmetal covers https://stemage.bandcamp.com/album/wher ... le-madness

I'll also just put out there that Pokemon X got my vote for introducing me to Pokemon. It has a lot of flaws that aggrivate me, but it was still an enjoyable enough experience. Much preferred Omega Ruby. I have no tolerance for old school Pokemon nonsense.

Man, Marble Madness is clearly something I've been missing out on. I'll have to look that one up.

It's a great game (and brutally challenging), but not a game I'd ever consider for BGE. All the votes is a little baffling to me.

This is one of those situations where someone chiming in with a reason for their vote would be very helpful, then! It's a blind spot for me, so I'd like to try it, but I don't even know what it is about the game that makes it great.

I'm terribly sorry for this. I voted for Pokemon Y and Pikmin. Well, I'm not sorry for voting for Pikmin, but I am sorry for voting for Pokemon. At least I voted for the best in the series!

It's literally the first game I ever played.

I remember it being really goddamn hard. You had to guide a marble down these slopes and into a goal or something like that, and it wasn't easy to control. There were also holes and stuff that could screw you over.

But I also remember enjoying the hell out of it...and then basically getting into video games. I'm not even sure I'd enjoy it if I replayed it, but it got me into video games so that's worth a vote. :oops:

Marble Madness, Pikmin, Dynasty Warriors 5, Bravely Default, and Pokemon X & Y will advance to the final qualifying round!

What happened here...?
