That Villager pocket blunder might just be one of the stupidest things I've ever done in Smash Ultimate. If I just left it in there, it would have vanished after 30 seconds. It honestly rivals that moment from Smash 4. I'm pretty decent at Smash, but my word, I can be a right idiot sometimes! Wouldn't have it any other way.

My Game Boy Color nominations will have to be... Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons Mario Golf Shantae Pokémon Trading Card Game I had to make some unfortunate cuts with this one...

Voting is now closed! I've also added the SNES Top 10 to the opening post. So before I get to counting the votes and writing up the N64 article. Here's our next argument. Game Boy Color Releasing for Europe in 1998, the Game Boy Color is a misspelled Game Boy that improves on the original Game Boy in many ways, the most obvious one being it's colour screen. While it didn't last quite as long as the Game Boy did, the GBC stands out from other "enhanced" consoles in that it has such an extensive library of games designed for it, that it might as well have its own Top 10. And that's what we're doing now. Quite a few restrictions on this console that I will go through now... The Pokémon Clause applies to this console, different versions of games that have minor changes will be counted as one game. The obvious example for the Game Boy Colour is Pokémon Gold, Pokémon Silver and Pokémon Crystal. If you nominate any of these games, they must only take up one slot. Two games that do not fit into the above Pokémon Clause are the two original Zelda games, "Oracle of Ages" and "Oracle of Seasons" While there were bonuses for owning and playing both, they are fully fledged titles on their own merits. Each having a similar amount of content to Link's Awakening. Remakes/ports of older titles from previous Nintendo consoles are not eligible for any nominations. Unless the remake has extreme differences from the original version. For this reason, games such as Tetris DX, Link's Awakening DX and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe are not eligible for nomination. Retro Compilation games, games that contain multiple older titles in one cartridge, are banned from this nomination. A good example is Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, seeing as it included the first two Super Mario Bros. games. These games have an inherent advantage while using older games from other consoles. Games that were released at pretty much the same time on two different consoles will only be counted for the console that it was originally designed for. For the Game Boy Color, this means that Wario Land II is ineligible for nominations. Games that were designed for the original Game Boy are not eligible for nomination. When selecting your games, they must all have the Game Boy Color logo on the box art. So check it if you're not sure. Not allowed Allowed Remember, 5 nominations in no particular order. Let's get colourful! Nominations close on the 18th of May.

You don't get to complain, you didn't vote. The controls have aged a tad (Space Jump's window is way too precise), but the world design is top notch and the atmosphere is really impressive for the SNES era. It's also an amazing game to watch speed runs for. There are so many cool tricks that you can pull off that really blow the game apart. Anyway, less than 90 minutes until the N64 vote closes.

The clip where that happens is a phenomenon I like to call Smash Zen. Normally happens in 1 on 1's where the hilarity stops for a brief moment because both players are throwing attacks but can't land a hit because both players are dodging them just right. It looks incredibly slick, even if it does inevitably end. I like to look out for them, because they provide a nice contrast in highlight reels. It's not as important as getting a shot where someone hits the front of the screen in a video though.

Speaking of N-E battles, it's the moment four of us have been waiting for. I had so many replays that I didn't have enough room for the matches when @RedShell left. That will have to come in a future video. Anyway, it also stars @BowserBasher, @Ugh first aid and me.

Aren't DeNA working on Mario Kart Tour?

Next League Night: 16th May 8pm Room 1: @BowserBasher is host @Glen-i @BowserBasher (Team Leader) @viceview51 @martinist @RedShell @Dcubed (Team Leader) This week's theme is a favourite of mine. It's time to once more take... Koopa Troopa's Morning Constitutional Time to take the regular trip to work at Bowser's Castle in another attempt to keep your job. Unfortunately, recent work tensions have caused the Koopas to have a bit of a falling out with the undead part of the company, so those pesky skeletons are trying to sabotage the work trip. Still, Koopa has its reliable sensible car, which is way better than Dry Bones older choice of travel. Right? I've already chosen what team I'm on, but the rest of you will have to send me a Private Message stating which team you'll want to be on. Sign up Now!

Oh, trust me, @RedShell I noticed...

Yaaaaaaayyyyyy...

Today is the final day to get your votes in. So here's those of you who nominated but have yet to vote. @Dcubed @Ronnie @Mandalore @lostmario @Ike @Iun @EEVILMURRAY @Nicktendo @dan-likes-trees @Gadwin @Hero-of-Time @nekunando @RedShell I need more of you to stop being so lazy and vote. It's not much of a comprehensive top 10 if only 9 of you have done the actual voting. Don't make me step in and clean up that list. I'll get my choices in there, and do you guys really want that? Even if you didn't nominate games for the N64, you're still free to send me a PM with the 3 games you want to vote for.

Ooooooh! I'll have to take part in that one! That skin looks pretty great! (Assuming it's the one in that background)

Room's open now.

Nope.

Very well. Last.

Tell me about it, someone will always point out a misgiving they have and then a big argument breaks out. And that's why I love it.

Ah, you're in the Banjo in Smash group. Very cultured. It'll be surreal as hell if we see games announced for the Switch during Microsoft's conference. You thought a Mario spin-off being revealed at Ubisoft's conference was weird.

I'm glad someone mentioned that. I was a bit puzzled how F-Zero X didn't break the top 16 given how much N-E goes on about it.

And now I do too. Why do you do this to me!?

Ah right. Thanks for reminding me. Before pressing Start in the arena, please wait until everyone is either in the ring, the spectator stand or the waiting area (The blue walkway to the right, not the other areas around it) This lets people watch your matches and possibly save replays for future usage.

Oh right, before I forget. Tonight's Thursday Smash Session will be Time. 9:30.

It's also impaled by a glass pillar. Clearly not the norm for Ivysaurs.

There were a lot more games that got more than one nomination. Probably due in part to the N64's sparse lineup compared to previous consoles. But what is there gets a lot of respect. It's going to be an interesting vote.

Yeah, I'm not expecting anything massive. My biggest hope and dream is some news of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon's first Switch outing. Remake or new title, I don't care. Just gimme! Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire got remade recently and the first PMD title is a Generation 3 one. So now's a good time. I mean if Game Freak aren't gonna bother remaking DS Pokémon games, Chunsoft might as well. But yeah, second Smash character reveal, more details on Fire Emblem, Mario Maker, Link's Awakening and Animal Crossing and probably one unannounced game. That's what I expect.
