***** Currently soliciting: Sega Genesis/Mega Drive nominations (Deadline Dec 6th) *****
We are creating a Hall of Fame for the best-of-the-best, "must have" titles from our beloved retro platforms!
We want you, the experts, to create this list.
This thread is for NOMINATIONS. List "must have" games here, with the platform, and when we get enough entries for a platform we will host a poll allowing the community to choose 1) what makes the cut and 2) what is the top dog on that platform! The winning titles will go into the Hall of Fame, which will be a must-read for anyone looking into collecting or just re-experiencing what these old platforms have to offer!
Required information:
For your entries to be useful, we need
- the name of the title
- the platform it was on
- why you believe it should be in the Hall of Fame if it is a more obscure title - one that needs some background for voters to consider
You can nominate more than one title, and provide nominations for more than one platform, but you are limited to your 3 per platform! You can be strategic - if a game you love has already been nominated you can vote for another gem you'd like to see instead. Any genre is welcome. Please don't list games compiled together - E.g. "the Final Fantasy series" or "Sonic games" - we need specific individual titles and you should pick the ones you most want to see on the poll. It's ok if your 3 votes are 3 games from one series - that's your call.
You can return another time and post a separate list of nominations for another system(s) - no need to do it all at once, since we are aggregating nominations across posts on a per-system basis.
Once a poll has been created for a system, we will start with a ranked top 10 for that system in the Hall of Fame (we may expand this to a longer list if the nominations for a system are extensive enough).
