I played the 10 Year Anniversary translated Japanese version for SNES. That game is literally IMPOSSIBLE without save states.

They literally have Vaan ahead of 15 other characters. I don't see how you can like that list, though Zack at the number 1 spot is a fair choice.

A character from a game that is probably never going to be released is in the top 20.

Well, I can hardly blame them for putting Noctis in the top 20. One view of that video Square released featuring him and I was thinking, "this is the biggest threat to Link since Cloud."

Polls for the next 9 days:

12/23/2012 - I don't know. Probably an original poll idea.
12/24/2012 - 'Twas the night before Christmas, and what are you doing?
12/25/2012 - What did you get for Christmas (or another December holiday)?
12/26/2012 - Got 3DS?
12/27/2012 - Got Vita?
12/28/2012 - Got PlayStation 3?
12/29/2012 - Got Xbox 360?
12/30/2012 - Got Wii U?

Hey, we're close to GotY-polls...excellent. We finally get something worth discussing in here! My predictions, assuming SB follows last year's format:

Portable Game: Pokemon Black/White 2, maybe Kid Icarus: Uprising
System Exclusive Game: Halo 4, maybe Xenoblade Chronicles
Multi-Platform Game: Mass Effect 3, though Borderlands 2 or Walking Dead may win a poll if this is broken into multiple days again.
Mobile: ?
Download-Only: Journey, maybe Fez
Original Game: Journey, maybe Fez
System: WII U! ...okay, Playstation 3
GotY: Mass Effect 3

Still gotta wonder if ME3's ending is going to come back to haunt it though. This poll leaves room to worry.....

There's nothing to worry about from that poll. It says absolutely nothing about how they actually feel about the ending, and you didn't even have to play the game to have an opinion about it.

Personally, I don't care about the ownership of the tablet, so I will not include it on there. If enough people object to this, I might consider putting the tablet's ownership on that page.

No, it's not because of that. It's because most people on this site aren't buying tablets specifically to play games on them and their ownership rate is worse than the iPhone or Android phones.

Updates:

Vita ownership is up to 17.36%. Even the PSP had a better first year than the Vita. The PSP had around 23-24% ownership by the end of the 2005 year.

PS3 ownership has jumped up to 67.91%. That's a gain of 3.40% over the past 5 1/2 months. Perhaps the Super Slim helped out the PS3 here. PS3 ownership is creeping even closer to the Wii's all-time highest ownership. I think the PS3 will eventually break 70% someday.

The Xbox 360 lost slightly over 2% over the past 5 1/2 months. I'm not sure what could have caused that drop, other than random variation. I would have thought Black Friday would actually help out the Xbox 360 here, since it sold very well on Black Friday.

a lot of people's 360s stopped working and therefore don't count themselves as 360 owners , obviously.

also I am very happy the wii u isn't doing very well, can't believe Nintendo released this ****y console

#443 | -LusterSoldier- | Posted 12/30/2012 7:29:28 AM | message detail
The 360 and PS3 polls both had an option for "No, I used to have one, but don't anymore", yet the PS3 still gained 3.40% in ownership over the past 5 1/2 months. The 360 lost 2.16% in ownership during that same time. Most of the people voting for "No, I used to have one, but don't anymore" in those 2 polls are people who lost a 360 to the RRoD or a PS3 to the YLoD.

Wii U still hasn't broken 23.74% ownership yet, which was the Wii's ownership on the launch date.

Wii U had 11.88% ownership on 11/30/2012 and 5.95% of the site reported getting a Wii U in this year's Christmas day poll. Based on the Christmas day poll results, it would make sense that Wii U's ownership right now should have been at least 17.83% or higher, but Wii U actually ended up with 15.45% in yesterday's poll.
