Super Circuit grew on me after getting used to the controls. Even the first SMK is decent. I get that MK64 was the first true 3D mario kart game and is undeniably important, but it's aged poorly.

Prepare to be pissed!

I think the best Joker in any of the Batman movies and cartoons and comics is the Joker from the Dark Knight Trilogy!

Why do people hate Emoji movie just because of Microsoft's propaganda? Microsoft probably hacked Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes just to give it a bad rating. Sony, do yourself a favor and please come to peace with Microsoft. And while you're at it, why don't you make peace with Nintendo, too?

Why would Microsoft be responsible for the hate towards the emoji movie?

Xbox and Playstation are in a war, with PS winning. Xbox did what they can to win.

He is a good Joker, but Mark Hamill is also a great joker.

I don't see what this has to do with the Emoji Movie, let alone, the movie was kinda a failure, even though it isn't the worst.

Playstation was made by Sony. Emoji Movie was made by Sony. Xbox was made by Microsoft. If Xbox and PS are in a war, so is Sony and Microsoft themselves.

Wait hold the fact that Sony has multiple divisions, I don't think it's gaming division has any part of this, especially when considering that the movie was made by the Movie division of Sony, Sony Pictures, and I'm pretty sure Microsoft wouldn't waste their time, trying to downplay one of Sony's movies rather than trying to work on the problems that are surrounding their company and sales.

I don't think attacking a movie would cause a reduction of the company's console sales and boost your own company's console sales. Pretty sure people think the movie is trash because they think it is trash, not because rival companies are trying to sell more of their consoles.

The Emoji Movie has a low score because it was poorly received. No hacking was involved although I think the initial comment had a tint of sarcasm to it.

You forgot to mention Mario Kart 64 (bury me I don't care)

Why no one notices Double Dash? I think it's the most underrated Mario Kart
Also I think Megaman ZX and ZXA are from the bests Megaman games I've played
MK64 is part of my list (*cough*rubberbanding*cough*), but I've simply chose not to mention it.

I agree on Double Dash too. People just remember it for Baby Park and "Hi I'm Daisy", but I remember everything from it. So underrated.
And I personally never played the Megaman ZX series, so I can't have an opinion about them.

As for the Undertale thing, I think that can be completely attributed to zeitgeist and a passionate Zelda fanbase. Undertale wouldn't win such a contest in 2018. It practically just came out when the contest happened, so it's fresh on everyone's mind. A certain bias there is inevitable, and getting angry about that makes sense if you ask me, regardless of which important game the fresh release surpassed.
All of this. Glad to know there's someone who understands what I said.

Hey hey, we're all friends down here. Let's, er, respect opinions, I guess.

Anyways, I like the Joker from the original Batman (Tim Burton one.).

Gen I Pokémon would not be nearly as memorable if they weren't Gen I Pokémon. I mean how many of us would really remember Porygon, Jynx or Pinsir if they weren't in the original 151?

True story. Let's be realistic here, if gamefreak had used the pokemon of generation 7 in the first generation and those of the first generation in generation 7, the seventh generation would be the hated because either they are very simple or they are ugly, which means pokemon like Jynx, Dugtrio or even Pikachu himself would be hated

You know nostalfags and fanboys are hard to understand

Nostalgia is the main factor to make something successful
