Back in 2012 Famitsu asked their readers what their favourite Nintendo titles of all time were; the results of that survey wasn’t well liked by GAF. Others posters asked themselves which Nintendo titles would make the cut if Neogaf members could vote for their own favourite games. So we started our own thread to make the definitive NeoGAF Top 50 Nintendo games of all time list. That was 2012. Four years have gone by and a lot of new titles appeared. And with the NX on the horizon it might be interesting to see if opinions have changed in the last couple of years. Some posters bumped the old thread a few weeks back and mentioned that they would love a new chance to post their personal top 10. So…

- This includes titles released before the 30th of June 2016.
- Second Party titles count as well. For instance, games like Goldeneye 64 or Eternal Darkness, Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie are allowed.
- Voting for imported titles is allowed. If you list an import game, please mention which country you are from. Otherwise I will assume you didn’t read the rules and the vote will not count.
- Remakes and significant upgrades to games count too.
- Compilations are not allowed. Examples: Super Mario All Stars (SNES) and the The Legend of Zelda compilation disc on Gamecube.
- Ports that amount to “ROM dumps”, i.e., ports with no additional content or significant changes, are not allowed. Think of NES Classics Ice Climbers on GBA or Super Mario All-Stars 25th Anniversary.
- If you’re unsure about a game, just ask!
