Like I said, I'll re-distribute them. LOL. 

 

I can finally reveal that Chrono Trigger is so good and I hate Chrono Cross. IDK. There are so many things about the game that frustrate me. I'll get into those in the write-up.

I can't believe I am siding with Dee over Tom on something but here we are! I don't hate Chrono Cross but Chrome Trigger is vastly superior!

Kingdom Hearts II advancing. ❤️ Those low rankings for it though. 🙂

 

I actually really like Kingdom Hearts II. I like the series as a whole, just not super connected to it. I think the story always became so convoluted and hard to follow.

Yikes at two of my Top 3 being pitted against each other, but this could be a blessing in disguise. Kingdom Hearts II could’ve been eliminated against another game with that many low scores, but thankfully it advances to the next round. ❤️

 

This battle is definitely the most difficult one of this set. Sorry Steven. ❤️

Mother 3 is the biggest beneficiary of the format while Pokemon Snap so far is the biggest loser. Whichever game is ranked 33 will end up being the biggest loser while no game can be a bigger beneficiary than Mother 3.

My friend tried to explain the plot to me and she even couldn't explain it clearly. And she's the biggest fan of the games that I know of.

This is very interesting to track. Thanks for keeping up with the simple stats stuff Megan!

Literally. The plot is so ridiculously convoluted and complex that even as a fan, I find the games hard to really connect to.

Ah @NGM, Steven outmatched your bad luck. His #2 and #3 pitted against each other.

That's okay. I knew Pokémon Snap wasn't going to last much longer, so I'm just going to be happy that Kingdom Hearts II survived this round.
