| Irrelevant yesses to Tetris and the Pokemons, Definitely a yes to the 2 Oracle games and... yeah, DK94. I'll abstain from the Gameboy Kirbys as I don't know them that well, and also Wario Land 2. But I didn't actually like the Super Mario Lands and (*ducks*) Link's Awakening.
Don't have any to add I'm afraid. |

| SML - nope nope nope. It's my first proper game ever, and I'll always have a soft place in my heart for it; but it was a complete departure from form, everything but Daisy was quickly swept under the rug, and it was outdated in its own console's lifetime by its successor. If SML2 isn't a classic - heck, if SMB2 isn't a classic - then this isn't. Pokémon Pinball gets a yes. Never played it, but I've played the RSE-era sequel, which was great; and apparently the original was even better. People still rave about it to this day. That's classic material! - masofdas wrote:

Let me put that another way. I'm curious as to why you think this is a classic. You're under no obligation to elaborate, but I'd be interested in you sharing your thoughts. |

| - Already mentioned:
Tetris Pokémon RB Pokémon GS - Yeah, obviously Link's Awakening I'd say yes to this. Lovely little Zelda. DK94 God yes! Cracking game. SML2 I'd say yes to this. A really nice, chunky Mario game that was closer to the real deal, but still different and weird. LoZOoA yep! LoZOoS yep! SML Right, here's the thing. This has amazing music. Its slick, fast and fun to play. It doesn't have as many levels as SMB, but they show considerably more variety. Its fondly remembered as most people's early Game Boy game, and a lot of people's first real game. It serves as a testament to the great Gunpei Yokoi. This is absolutely a classic. YES. Pokémon Pinball You know what? Yeah. I really liked this.
For my money, I'll chuck Mario's Picross, Harvest Moon and Pokémon Trading Card Game your way. |

| Ah, the Drunkalilly 10/10 approach. Mario's Picross, as the first Nintendo Picross game (leading to Picross DS eventually), gets a yes from me. Harvest Moon GB was neither the series starter nor (apparently) that great, so it's a no; and I was a big fan of TCG, but it didn't seem to spark anything in the future, nor is it talked about in hallowed tones nowadays. Abstain. |

| I'll yes your Picross, Drunka.
DO NOT TAKE THAT OUT OF CONTEXT
I'll abstain from the other two though. |

| Mario's Picross, ABSTAIN Harvest Moon GB, ABSTAIN Pokémon Trading Card Game, No
Is it me but even having a look for Top GameBoy game list's there isn't many stand out classics on the system that isn't Pokemon or Tetris.

| At the moment we're set to have six that don't fall into those categories. That said, many of the great franchises were stared on the NES and expanded on later home consoles. I think we'll have even more trouble in GBA week. |

| I think GBA will have a few when we get to it, which I guess is after SNES & N64.
I would put a bet on the N64 having the most classics . |

| I know it's got some absolute classics but the N64 has classics after classics and as we know is GNamers fav console, with one of the main reasons because of those classic games.

| Unless Andy starts voting, in which case every single N64 game will get one downvote. |

| Yeah but even with Andy's down vote, I think the sheer number of Yes's will make up for it. |
