I can now tell you all which games will be worth 1 point in 2016. The columns on the left represent the overall rankings of the game for 2016 and 2015. Games ranked from 1-67 are worth 1 point. The columns on the right are when each game was beaten in that particular year.

There are seven differences from this year's list.
These games were worth 2 points this year and will be worth 1 next year:
10 Yard Fight
Castlevania 2
Hollywood Squares
Jeopardy 25th
Jeopardy Jr.
Power Blade
Wheel of Fortune Family
These games were worth 1 point this year and drop out of the top 67.
Mickey's Safari in Letterland is done. And I was starting to wonder if Red was going to make an appearance here. Welcome back!
Hi. I didn't really feel like rushing through a bunch of games again like I did last year, so I'm taking it easy this year. Just thought I'd give a one-pointer I never played a try today. I don't think I'll post game completions for games I've beaten before this year.

But did you get to marry their three beautiful daughters?
Nope. After beating it, I gave it another try to get the best ending, but couldn't do it. I didn't care to make another attempt after that.
I got the first 2 crowns in Legacy of the Wizard and had just reached the 3rd crown when I got taken out by Arc-Winger. Gotta watch out for the 1-hit kill! I didn't feel like crawling through that dungeon again tonight so I'll pick it up where Ieft off tomorrow.
Middle way through Best of the Best: Championship Karate here.
The controls on this game sucks. But two hours more tops and I will be done with it.
I just get all my stats to max and then use the same move on every guy. I think it's the high kick. I just find a move that works once and do it over and over until I beat it.
I think I'll play Crystalis next before I tackle anymore PAL games.
Awesome pick. Good luck with it.
I intend to tackle Tecmo World Cup Soccer and Trolls in Crazyland from the PAL list before I call it a day. Then hope I will have time to get some games done during the week.

Ufouria complete!
Great game.
Sunsoft was really firing on all cylinders back then.*
*except for Lemmings, they really screwed that one up.
Good job, WashYourFace.

I suppose you could say, Lemmings was not one of the elite in Sunsoft developing circles.

Good job, WashYourFace.
Thanks, there's still Mr. Gimmick though if you want a good game (I don't own it, so won't attempt it any time soon).
It's probably going to be tough to beat though. From what I've heard, finding all the treasures with no continues is tough.

I think they didn't even play test all the levels. There's no way they could have.
I think they rushed it out the door to cash in on the name while it was hot.

I got that one, and yeah, it is very tough to achieve that feat. I will leave that one for next weekend.
I will try to beat some more of NTSC obscure games that few people play today.
We gotta beat them all this year!
The controls on this game sucks. But two hours more tops and I will be done with it.
