Nah, I have little knowledge of old games and zero knowledge of portable games.
what about coasting on research and nostalgia though?
I’ll leave that to Jorge
C'mon LV!
Okay, so I haven't actually read what the rules are...

Is this a "draft a team" kind of tournament? Or a March Madness type of tournament? If you need another player in a "draft a team" I'm in.
Draft a team. The unofficial rules are a few posts up. Official rules will be posted on Monday or Tuesday.

What if Teams had 8 games with the following rules for teams:
- Can only have one game from a single franchise
- Games with similar characters across franchises are ok (Mario Kart 8 is not a Mario game)
- Must have four consoles/platforms represented
- Must have at least one mobile/portable game (Switch games do not count)

Snake order draft for teams.

Teams so far:
Monkey_Driven
Trag
ElloSailor
Tree (reluctantly)
run2death
CopperTom
ABNorman
bada
Jammer XCI

Who else is interested?
These the rules?

Okay, cool. I'm still in, but it makes it difficult. I think I can play, though. The hardest rules will be: having multiple consoles represented and a mobile game (I know next to nothing about them, but I'm willing to research/go with my gut).

As long as four different generations of Nintendo consoles are represented you would be just fine!

I'd gladly run 2 teams if we get that desperate.
