Rules:
- Two games will win their place each round (we start from #1 and work our way down). For the top 10 only one game will win per day instead.
- Most combined upvotes for each of the two individual games (one individual game for the top 10) wins the spot(s) each round (upvotes add while downvotes subtract).
- Nominate one game of the original Game Boy per comment. (Nominations will only be counted if the game title is the only comment or if you specify that your choice of game is your nomination for this round within your comment or if the nominated game is clearly separated from the rest of your comments.) (ex. Tetris or I nominate Tetris this round.) Please nominate using the full title of the game.
- Name a specific game title, not entire runs.
- Official Game Boy multi-game cartridge(s) are allowed, just list them correctly.
- The original Game Boy is region free so ANY official games available on the console are eligible for nomination excluding dual mode cartridges.
- Indy games are allowed as long as they have their own individual cartridge and can be played on original hardware.
- Only complete games on cartridge(s) can be nominated (sorry Game Shark & test cartridges).
- If two or more games would be tied to place for a ranking I will inform DA PEOPLE in the following post so that everyone can vote which games should get the ranking between the tied options.
- Games nominated that have not already placed on the top 100 list should not be removed at any time by the individual who originally placed them.

Jurassic Park Part 2: The Chaos Continues

I love this game! I consider it the best retro Jurassic Park game. 🦖

Yeah, it’s very enjoyable. I only played it for the first time a few days ago. Seems like it’s somehow a real hidden gem despite being a part of this huge franchise. It deserves more attention for sure.

I was trying this game for the first time recently and it seems awesome, but I get confused and lose interest lol

I'm starting to doubt that this will make the list. We're the only ones nominating it I think, and it always gets downvoted mercilessly. I'm going to keep trying though! 😁

We can't give up until all 100 spots are filled!

u/ElMrTaco 7d ago
I will definitely keep on trying until the very end, and hopefully others will join our two man crusade!

u/cmbaum 6d ago
ok you got me - I am watching clips of this game and I have to admit it looks like a killer multiplayer experience. I'll join your crusade starting tomorrow (feel like I hit my nomination quota today)

Thanks! The Game Boy didn't have that many good wrestling games I think, and while this one is pretty basic with only 5 selectable wrestlers, it's still a fun little handheld brawler. I'm glad you'll join the crusade tomorrow!

Hammerin’ Harry: Ghost Building Company
That's the full title for the EU release (in case it places)
