I'd be all in on a Tabletop Sim night! Could use it to host a good chunk of games, cracking fun.

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

Sonic Racing could definitely be an option tho.

Yeah, and Maybe even Puyo Puyo Tetris, Speed Runners. (Or Yu-gi-oh)

 

[Stealphie]

Some were, like Pokémon and Smash. It’s all dependent on the given host if they’re able to. Some people’s internet is being throttled, some have loud family at home constantly now. It’s difficult. Plus, if you wait for everyone, it’s a lot of awkward sitting around calling out no shows. Sonic Racing could definitely be an option tho.

What about cards against humanity on that yixxzy site or whatever. It’s a webpage that pretty much plays the game as normal, but Iran free and supports iirc 12 players.

EDIT: splatoon 2?

wouldn't it be better if it was Team Sonic Racing? It's the newest one and the most easily available

Yeah, and Maybe even Puyo Puyo Tetris, Speed Runners. (Or Yu-gi-oh)

Puyo Puyo Tetris and SpeedRuners would be great

It's also more expensive, and been available less via bundles and sales. I'd wager pretty safely that more people own Transformed than TSR.

Because it has Wreck it Ralph.

 

[Scarlet]

Tbh I could see any Sonic Racing game being a good pick. Not for me personally that said. They always felt off after so many years of Mario Karting.

 

[Nerdtendo]

Congrats to all the winners! Sorry I held up the Smash tourney. Life got in the way. Looks like everyone had fun regardless

 

[Deleted member 414991]

Really fun tournament! I'll definitely be participating in more of these if we have them.

As for other games for future tournaments:
- JStris

It is a free browser based version of Tetris 99 - Battle Royale that you can create custom huge lobbies, as well as it works on all devices that have a modern browser (such as Chrome, Firefox, etc) that supports HTML5.

 

[gudenau]

I'd love some Mario Kart Wii stuff. There's 24 player, item rain, countdown, custom tracks and 200cc!

 

[Brigand]

A Stardew Valley farm design comp could be fun in the future!

Let's do them all at once

the winners were:

[Armadillo]

I have sonic transformed, don't have the newer one.

Don't really have any game suggestions. Transformed is probably in more people libraries, always in a bundle and the new one didn't seem to well received on pc. Not even sure I've seen it bundled.

 

[eyeliner]

Half Life II Deathmatch

 

[City]

I had a blast!

Are there any games you guys would want to see specifically? Obviously, they’d ideally be ones that lots of people own, etc.

Pokken Tournament would be fun

 

[relauby]

Pokken Tournament would be fun

This is another one that supports OFW and CFW LAN play so, as long as we can test that it’s playable, I’d support Pokkén as well. I don’t know a ton about the game itself, but I think the fact that it’s sort of an unconventional fighter might make it a bit more accessible.

I didn't know the Wii U had such things. Neat!

 

[NGT]

CTGP7?

Ohh how abt super mario 64 online battle royale

 

[relauby]

I didn't know the Wii U had such things. Neat!

Sorry, I was talking about Pokkén DX on the Switch. I actually forgot the Wii U had Pokkén, or any games at all, for a second.
