Me? No, you!

Welcome to the riddle thread where you must figure out who YOU are after reading clues pertaining to who I am and what relationship I have with the answer. Co-hosting with me is PokefreakofBACON. We will be alternating riddles. Each riddle will stay up for a maximum of three days, less if solved. Hints are unavailable at this time. This first post will always have the current riddle, previous riddles (with answers), and the scoreboard. Each new riddle posted will have the new riddle and the updated scoreboard. Thanks, and enjoy!

Example:
Sparkling in the deep blue,
How many, not a clue.
Sometimes picked up by a plumber,
Not in the sun though, what a bummer.
What am I, and where do I live? (you)

Exemplar Post:
I am the SKY and you are a STAR.
Sparking in the deep blue (SKY)
How many, not a clue (Many, also referring to Mario games)
Sometimes picked up by a plumber (Mario. Of course)
Not in the sun though, what a bummer. (Referring to both stars are generally not present in the sun, as well as the fact that there are no Stars to be collected in the Sunshine game of mario.)

Note that you do not need to give a reasoning for EACH line of the riddle; only one or two can suffice.

Let it be a race! Ready, set GO!

Who am I? Who are you?

It's all about conquering that desire within you to succumb to your greed.

Question them, suspect them, and take a good long look into their hearts.

Going out on a limb here saying im yoshi and your baby mario?
Later.
Sorry, not the right answer.
From comments received from a few people, let me clear something up.
The "eggs" noted do NOT mean there are eggs LITERALLY in the game; it means that a collectable either has an egg-like shape, or can be mistaken for an egg.
Also, each and every line can be analyzed as a hint to the answer; none of the words are unimportant. Words just for the sake of rhyming are not in the riddle.

You are Link, and I am Navi, both from Ocarina of Time.

Stocky build and fairly tall, (Adult Link)
Collecting eggs but that's not all. (Cojiro, and I think you get another cucco egg in your inventory at some point.)
Light to dark, just count, 1, 2, 3, (The ability to travel between the Light and Dark, or Past and Future versions of Hyrule)
I'll jump and shoot, just watch me. (Link automatically jumps across ledges, and bow/arrows =p)
I might be strong but I need your aid (Where would we be if Navi weren't there to help us figure out the strategy to defeat a monster we've never seen before?)
You're in a sticky situation, visiting a place he forbade. (Referencing when Navi is trapped by Ganondorf, and that the Deku Tree gets all the Kokiris to believe that they'll die if they leave the forest)
Can we fix your problem? Let us hope so. (Navi is fairly helpful)
Let it be a race! Ready, set, GO! (This is the only one I'm stuck on...)

This is a thing that's happening, now. Achievements in old video games.
Thank you for the layout, Erik557.
Man, I wish this would've worked. Oh well.
If not for respect, but dramatic effect, take on the face of Guy Fawkes.
Heh. As I was reading, I was like "Oh no, did I coincidentially make the riddle apply to more than one game?" because I really dislike when that happens. But luckily you got stuck on the last line, and ONE of the lines you have overlooked a small bit of information. Nice try, but no cigar.

Hint: These "eggs" are called "orbs".

If the gods appreciate,
Here's a line, please don't hate.

Obvious Tetris reference, so I'd guess we're two of the seven pieces.
I'd guess you're one of the squiggly ones (▀█▄ or ▄█▀, impossible to know which), since they're usually considered the most annoying.
The most useful one is generally considered the line piece (▄▄▄▄), so I'd guess I'm that one.


...actually, scratch that, I think I misunderstood something. I'd guess boss means it can nuke four lines, so you're █▄▄ or ▄▄▄▄ (I guess the latter, since TASers usually ignore the rules of the games), and I'd say ▄█▄ is the most versitale one, so I'm probably that one.
<blm> zsnes users are the flatearthers of emulation
Aye, it's Tetris. But I think you're the one who drops bricks on me and I'm the one trying to move them around.

EDIT: yay, my postcount has given me Daiyousei!
Credit for the amazing layout goes to Counterfeit!

Renaming my hack to something to do with Raphael (the Raven). Complete revamp. Demo soon.

Also userbars because Silver and HyperMario are awesome.






Strategy's the name, (Be careful how you drop them)
Speed's the game. (It cna get fast, can't it.)
Four's the magic number, (Tetrad, nyeh?)
But 10 sideways makes a wonder! (Line GET!)
Call me the boss, (The best, I guess)
Don't get me, your loss. (Very useful, eh? I'' steal Alcaro's ▄▄▄▄.)
You're the best though, (Better than ▄▄▄▄?)
Versatility! So... (Well, I'm not the square, then.)

So I'll go and say..

I'm █▄▄ and you're ▄▄▄▄. Yes, I chose a different one just in case Alcaro is wrong. And because I think █▄▄ is more useful than ▄█▄.
"Lasciate ogni speranza, voi ch'entrate."
Wow, many good guesses, glad the second hint made it more obvious that the game was tetris. However: Artemiscat, the answer refers to blocks, rather than the gods dropping the blocks.
i.e) Call me the boss... You're the best... etc.

And it's a toss-up, silverthundr did a perfect job of the response, but Alcaro was the one who got the final answer right. So the points go to Alcaro :) Sorry silver :(

I'll get you,
and your little dog too,
in the strange land.
A chance you don't stand
if i send my apes,
who fly without capes.
All of the above is true,
But who are you?

Difficulty: easy (1 point)
I used to use this site a lot back in like, 2011. Hopefully you don't remember me.
I know that's a wizard of oz reference, but I never read it. I'll guess the wicked witch, since i think it's a witch of some kind.
