    Nintendo Top 50 Part 1: The Art of List Making and ONM's Final Top 100
    Jul 26 2024

    Part one of our three-part effort to create a Nintendo top 50 list is here! This episode explores the process of making list features when you're working on a magazine or website, and the compromises and decisions that lead to the final result.

    Look out for parts two and three across the next couple of weeks.
