I remember the "top 10 games" question being asked not that long ago, but I didn't answer then, so I figure I'll do it now. Smash and Pokemon will be limited to one slot with just my favorite of them listed or else the list would be mostly them.

My top 10 Nintendo exclusive:

1. Smash WiiU
2. Pokemon Heartgold
3. Dragon Quest Monsters 2 (here's to hoping fans translate its 3DS remake someday, as SE is never localizing it)
4. Super Mario 64
5. Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
6. Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn
7. Super Mario Bros. 3
8. Legend of Zelda Link to the Past
9. Castlevania 3
10. Kirby Super Star Ultra

Top 10 when non-Nintendo games are considered (though it doesn't change much):

1. Smash WiiU
2. Pokemon Heartgold
3. Dragon Quest 8 (my favorite pure single player experience in a game)
4. Dragon Quest Monsters 2
5. Doom 2 (the game alone wouldn't be this high, but its modding scene is amazing and still strong after 20 years)
6. Super Mario 64
7. Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
8. Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn
9. Okami
10. Super Mario Bros. 3

1. Super Smash Brothers Melee


Never has a fighter ever been able to completely nail the enjoyability of the game at both a casual and competitive level. No game has ever come close to the feeling you get when you nail a combo in Melee, or make a sick read. Melee is not only my favorite Nintendo game, but my favorite game of all time. Not just for nostalgic reasons, but for the perfection of gameplay that was a beautiful accident. Never gonna forget how this game brought me and my friends together, and no game will ever compare.

2. Pokemon Emerald


I got Pokemon Blue when I was extremely young. This came out when I was around 3 or 4, so I just stuck to the TV show and watched my older friends play. Pokemon Emerald was my first true adventure into Pokemon, and the memories are great. This is the only game that is likely here for purely nostalgic reasons. The franchise as a whole belongs here, as it was and always will forever be important to me.

3. Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask


Sequels always get me, and I think this game being above Ocarina for me is because of my hype for it when I was young. But it also hit me in more ways than just that. It spoke to me on a personal level as I struggled with learning disabilities at that age, and the game's themes not only can associate to death, but to how you feel about yourself. Something I never see mentioned about MM, but is very important. The game's themes are beautifully dark, and manage to make me care for a game world like I never did before.

I'm not gonna go anywhere beyond that, as it's tough to rank. But my top 3 are a list I'm very sure of. If I kept going you'd see Mario Galaxy, Super Mario World, Super Metroid, and more. But it's tough to rank. These games above are 100%.

Why does fruit juice have to be more expensive than soda. It is so much healthier and college students need there vitamins :(

Juice really isn't that much healthier; it's mostly flavored sugar water, and lacks much of the nutrients and fiber that are in fruit, especially if there's no pulp.

Depends on the juice you're drinking. More chance to find an healthy juice than an healty soda. (I hate sodas)

I can't make a top 10 Nintendo games : there is just to many to choose from.

Also this.

Not saying sodas are anything healthy, but juice being "healthy" is a misconception, and if you're trying to be health-conscious, you're much better off drinking water and eating the actual fruits.

I'm just saying there is healthy type of juice (that taste better too:p). But yeah, normal juice aren't healthy, water is the best drink and fruits the best candy.

Favorite Nintendo games... This is a tough list to make, but that's a testament to how good Nintendo is as a game publisher and developer.

As for the Warchamp7 thing, here's mine:

I'm going to leave Smash out of the list because quite honestly I feel it transcends typical video gaming and becomes a hobby in and of itself.

1 & 2: Tied between Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past and Illusion of Gaia. It's usually whichever of the two I've played last.
3: Mega Man X
4: Mega Man 2
5: Pokemon Red
6: Iji
7: Sonic 3 & Knuckles
8: Super Mario Bros. 3
9: Super Mario World
10: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
11: Blaster Master

(There's 11 because I hit 'Reply,' went "Oh crap, how'd I leave out Pokemon?!" and didn't want to remove 'Blaster Master' from the list)

I mean generally I hate juice but is that true?

Yeah, juice is pretty much just sugar in flavored water, with little micronutrients, and little-to-no fiber (especially if there's no pulp). 12 fluid ounces of orange juice for example, has about 150 calories and around 30g of sugar, with the only worthwhile nutrition being some vitamin c (for some comparison, the same amount of coke has around 140 calories with 39g of sugar, while 30g of sugar is about the max you should be having each day). As such, juices are calorie/sugar dense drinks of little nutritional value.

As for why juices are that bad, the juice in fruit is where the sugar is, while the flesh is where the fiber and micronutrients mostly are. It additionally takes a disproportionate amount of fruit to get a worthwhile juice amount, which ends up inflating the amount of sugar even more. So when you juice a fruit, you're essentially just getting sugar water. If you want to drink fruits (and veges), smoothies are the way to go, as while they can still be calorie dense, the fiber and micronutrients are maintained as the flesh is kept within the drink.

Sugar water?
So it is basically just as bad as soda...
