You can choose up to 10 software projects.
Each project receives 10 years of development time as if all the programmers worked continuously for that duration, following their current working methods.
After choosing these 10 (or less) projects, everything else remains unchanged in the world, as if time has been frozen for 10 years.

Which projects do you choose?

The next four Zeldas, the next Metroid, the next Mario, the next Smash Bros, the next three Elder Scrolls

Good, don't switch the direction of puff on back air and remove lag frames.

How about giving all 100 years to GameFreak so they can try to make a good Pokémon game?

I wouldn't roll the dice on those 100 years like that
