From the 8-bit: A collection of minigames based on classic Stooge movies centered around saving an orphanage from an evil banker.
From the 16-bit: A genre-crossing adaptation of the top-grossing movie of 1983.
Go nuts yet again.

And it's another Godzilla vs. Bambi-type situation as Super Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi all but obliterates The Three Stooges. Next!

From the 8-bit: A ninja action game with a plethora of powers and a silly storyline.
From the 16-bit: A soccer game starring the Blue Bomber and a plethora of his past enemies.
I can't think of a more appropriate time to say this: I love Mega Man. A LOT. Pretty much the same way Syd loves Taito.

I've never played mega man soccer, so I voted for the wrath of the black manta.

WotBM was my vote. Mostly because it was one of the first games I remember beating (besides super mario) as a youngster. I beat this in Mexico even. And I never played the Mega Man soccer game. And if its soccer, i gotta go w/mario strikers.

And it's Wrath Of The Black Manta for the win. Obviously not the outcome I would've wanted, but there'll be other polls involving Mega Man.

From the 8-bit: A multi-genre-crossing spy action game based on a popular long-running manga that features not one, but TWO sex scenes.
From the 16-bit: A funny sequel to a funny game.
Opposites attract, don't they? Get voting.

Earthworm Jim 2 was even more fun and enjoyable than the first game. Seriously, who could forget the quiz shows?
Earthworm Jim 3D sucked. Hard. Too bad that PSP remake will never come to fruition either.

I never played a Golgo-13 game, much to my dismay. But I have played EJ 1 + 2 and I loved them both immensely.
Riding the hamster, the quiz shows, saving that stupid little dog, the cows, etc etc.

And we have our first obliteration as Earthworm Jim 2 gets all the votes to Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode's none. I really didn't expect this to happen at least until the next poll, especially considering the fact that option 1 has, I repeat, TWO sex scenes. Oh, well. Moving on...

From the 8-bit: A gambling game set in a casino with a top-down perspective, starring a kid and featuring Black Jack and Poker.
From the 16-bit: A straight-up console port of the original version of a revolutionary arcade fighting game that, given its prequel, is lucky to even exist.
I think we all know how this is going to turn out. Go ahead, prove me right...or wrong, whichever.

As expected (sort of), it's another Godzilla vs. Bambi-type situation as Street Fighter II: The World Warrior all but obliterates Casino Kid. While we're on the subject, can someone please answer me this: why is it that Casino Kid got the very first vote in his poll, but Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode didn't get a single one in the last?

From the 8-bit: A hybrid first-person/top-down perspective RPG with a specific sequence of events that must be memorized and an ending guaranteed to piss off the big-hearted.
From the 16-bit: A helicopter flight game taking place just after the Gulf War.
That's really the best wording I could come up with to describe Option 2. Anyway, cast your votes.

Probably because Super Star Wars rules, but the original version of SF2 is largely boring and stupid compared to the later incarnations.

I vote for the Copter game. I never played the SNES version of it but I played the Genesis version, along w/all the other 16 bit 'strike' games, and they were AWESOME.
Also, I never played T&T so I have no idea how good/bad it is

I wouldn't go as far as "boring and stupid", but it left much to be desired. Still fun, though.

Desert Strike is my favorite war game ever. So underrated.

Did you even read the question in its entirety or look at the previous poll? Earthworm Jim 2 was the winner in that one.

No, of course I didn't look at the old poll. Why would I waste my time? So I mixed up the SNES #88 with the SNES #90, big deal. When you're looking at random polls every day, they all start to run together.
You asked how Casino Kid managed to get a vote, the answer still stands.
