Famitsu’s ‘Greatest Games of All-Time’ List is Garbage

To be frank, when I saw the list, first thing I thought was “Oh, Zelda’s on it, good update for Zelda Informer”. But then I saw the list and burst out laughing thinking that Famitsu is merely trolling us. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case, and as such this is an update pointing out just how poorly Nintendo did at that list. Even more than that, the list also contains an entry that nearly topped the Top 10 Worst Games of All Time list, by yours truly. You’d think that, with Famitsu being Japanese and all, they’d be all over Nintendo’s stuff, but this serves as further proof that one can always count on being shocked and surprised by the Japanese.
