Yes, the original has its fun, but I'd quickly drop it for other games. >_>'

I grew up with Both actually. I love playing Mario on the NES. I loved Super Mario 2 & 3 also. Then came the N64 and Mario64! Zelda not so much. But somehow Zelda Ocarina of Time really made the series take off for me and I got totally hooked on it. Zelda just seems to have more of a story behind it that you have to know in order for everything to make sense. Mario is simply just, rescue the princess (on a normal game, not counting spin offs).

I love the Ocarnia of Time. Unfortunately I never had an xbox as a kid so I had to use my friends, it was funny he was my next door neighbor and I was always over playing video games. Ironically I didn't have any of the nintendo systems it was all my friends or cousins, the only system I remember having as a kid was Sega Genesis

Well as you guys can see from the poll results, we have our winners! 3rd place Super Mario World (SNES) (8 votes, 24.2%) Second place Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES) (9 votes, 27.2%) First place, GT's favorite video game is... Legend of Zelda: Ocarnia Of Time (N64) (16 votes, 48.4%)!!! So Zelda is apparently GT's favorite game! Do you agree? WOOT most defiantly agreed

I'd say the fact that they've secured 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place isn't so much the quality of there games (even though they're excellent) as much as it's people have been playing them for much longer then the competition. ^ What he said. Newer games have so much more variety that there are more gamers who haven't played them, but pretty much everyone knows the games that made the final. They're all high quality games, but in a knockout contest like this, the winner isn't necessarily everyone's individual favorite. I'd vote for a Zelda game if it was against a Halo game, for example, but only because I've never played Halo. That doesn't mean Zelda is actually my favorite game. Plus like someone else said, nostalgia plays a big part in things too. I know plenty of people who claim to be really into retro games and never actually play them for more than 10 minutes, and as much as I used to love my Sega Genesis, and my GameGear before that, most of the games are pretty awful if you try to play them again now. But - I'm not knocking the 'contest' at all, it was fun taking part and seeing which game came out as the winner.

I guess a real test then would be to group the games by time period (like decade?) And have people vote on the favorite game of each period.

*Hands ToriJ the "Epic Quote Award"*
Then rolls on the floor laughing at the thought of Link actually looking like that.
