Had to go Tetris. Didnt want to but had to.

For the record are we basing our decisions on whatever we want? For example last time I had to go with Contra based on stuff that is seperate from the actual game.

Up to you. I'm basing my decision on which one I enjoyed the most.

Went with Conquest.

It was tough but I also went with Conquest. I was almost gonna vote for dodgeball because I used to have so much fun with it but it's not on the level of Conquest. Didn't wanna vote Tetris because it's on like every system and to me the NES version is just another version.

I'm honestly shocked I am the only one who voted DD2. :(

I'm not.
Me neither.

However, I am surprised at the lack of votes for Super Dodge Ball so far. I guess people really like Conquest.

Super Dodge Ball is a fun game no doubt about it, but Conquest is more epic and I simply enjoyed it more than SDB.

Yep, Conquest is an awsome game, i wil have to master it sometime.
I'm wondering why nobody did it so far, hmmm...

Well I'm surprised only Tails voted for DD2, it is a pretty popular game. Dodgeball I expected to do poorly just because of the other games on this list.

I would have taken DD2 if not for Tetris.

Sometimes you can see Super Dodgeball at some Arcades.

I voted for Tetris 'cause of some of the best music on a game of all time.

I don't know man, have you tried Conquest yet? It's got some great tunes.

Sure Conquest has some good music but I've always loved Tetris and they both have music you'll remember, but I've been playing Tetris since I was about 2.

Conquest and Tetris move on to the next round.

I'll put up the next poll now.

Is Tetris for NES all that good? I thought that the high-end Tetris game was the Gameboy version because handhelds did make most from such fast-paced gameplay. Because if we think of Tetris as every Tetris version out there, then it is obviously way too good not to vote for it.

DD2 was dope.

The Tengen version of Tetris, which is the same as the old arcade version, is pretty damn swell.

But honestly whether or not there was a better version of the game is irrelevant. The poll is all about games as part of the NES library.

Besides, I doubt changing it to the GB version of Tetris would have swayed any votes.

The NES version of Tetris is the definitive version.

Why?
Slime Slayer

Why?

Because all the top players in the world compete on that version.

Yeah, but people will do all kinds a' stuff when it comes to competing.

I remember a particular individual who had taken to Jaws on the NES in the name of setting a world record.

I'm going to have to go with Double Dragon II for this one with Tetris coming up second. I think I played Conquest once, the graphics remind me of Karnov/Ninja Gaiden with a Mega Man vibe. I think there were better games at the time and I just never got into it. Super Dodgeball is fun but every time I play it, I get the urge to play River City Ransom and I end up changing games. I spent tons of hours on Tetris but it's all about the cyclone spin kick in Double Dragon II.
