Death Star

Oh, right, you can’t get the memo because someone threw you down a huge exposed shaft in your Death Star throne room.

As things currently stand it would be Zelda, Pika Pika, Evolution of Mario, Mario & Final Fantasy (anyone else noticing a pattern?) and Zelda’s whopping 15% may well have been helped along by these chaps.
