I'm just mad that any game related to Mario whatsoever still goes for $14.99 and up still for N64.

Whoa, where do you live?! The only N64 games that I've ever seen sold nowadays for over ten bucks where I live have been the Pokemon Stadium/Snap games. o.O

I've gone and bought Paper Mario, Banjo-Tooie, WWF No Mercy, DK64, Perfect Dark, and I bought Blast Corps

I've been meaning to play PM, BK's cooler than BT, No Mercy is the ****in' ****, DK64 has its ups and downs, PD makes you a god among men, and BC is such an under-rated game.

Good deal.

I know where I live, it's like that for Mario; I was gonna buy Mario Tennis used before, 'til I saw it at $25. I looked around and saw other Mario games like that, then saw LoZ:OoT for about $12 (gold edition, too).

Funny how that name-value thing works.

Mario Tennis is worth $25 though. That game owns.

So is Mario Power Tennis (plus another $25), which was due out soon when I saw Mario Tennis, heh.

Miami. EBGames and Gamestops by my house have all the Mario Parties, Mario Tennis, Mario Golf, Mario Kart 64, pretty much all of the Mario spinoffs at around 14.99 or higher...

A funny thing I just realized; for nominations supposedly being so much more against casuals than normal voting, three casual-hits have made the list thus far (two of which are pretty big surprises). Also, for as many people on the boards as there is that're apathetic about/against FPS's, I never imagined there being TWO that made the list. Perhaps casuals aren't against gettin' an account near as much as we like to act like (or, to flip it around, just because you have an account doesn't mean you care).....

I almost never played the N64 by myself. The beauty of that system was its wide array of excellent multiplayer games.

heh, I'm actually playing Ogre Battle 64 right now. excellent game, but very time consuming. but, yeah, other than Ogre Battle, Mario 64, Blast Corps, and Paper Mario, the N64 was pretty much for multiplayer games for me, too. the N64 really did take console multiplayer gaming to a never before reached level of excellence.

Heh. Dreamcast online. The only thing I remember about that is my friend playing against people in NBA2K and NFL2K while also cursing them out using the keyboard.

All the Mario Party N64 games near me are at least $34.99. -_-

Memories are nice, but that's all they are.-Rikku

The only time I ever tried online Dreamcast was when I had a friend over that was also good at Chu Chu Rocket, and we tried to find some people online who'd play...but nobody was online to play against. To be fair, it was a little-known game that had been out for at LEAST a year, and very likely longer.

If you buy them through ebgames.com you can get 15% off all pre-played games. It's not a bad deal and shipping is a flat rate ($2.49-$3.49).

Waiting for SM64 and GTA:SA (like that'll happen)

today's predictions:

LTTP - 23
SM64 - 16
SSBM - 12
FF10 - 10
Starcraft - 8
Mario 3 - 5
GTA:VC - 4
Super Mario World - 3
SOTN - 2
FF8 - 1
Pokemon R/B - 1
Pokemon G/S - 1
Mega Man 3 - 1
Super Metroid - 1
Sonic 2 - 1
Chrono Trigger - 1
Tetris - 1
Street Fighter 2 - 1
RE4 - 1

not surprisingly, the faith in Starcraft dropped off after Goldeneye made the list. nothing surprising/interesting today, though I thought Mario 3 would get more predictions.
---

I'd like to see SM64 make it tomorrow and LoZ:LttP not make the list. That's the best I can hope for with the way my list is, plus LoZ:LttP is my least favorite of the Super Seven (if only because I never gave it enough of a chance, which is something I've been meaning to do for about two years now).
---

I'd like to see Mario 3 miss it - that's probably my least favourite. either that or OOT - I never was a fan of 3d Zelda. I do think Mario 3 has a chance to miss the list, too.

I'd like to see Chrono Trigger miss the Top 10 just because asking for FFVII to miss it is asking for too much.

Got a question, since it's now a pretty common belief MGS suffered moreso than it shoulda against FF7: notice this brings FFT up along with it, as it's already been pointed out...also notice that, assuming no under-performance was at hand, FFT would get 38:9% against FFX in a 2004 battle without SFF, so it gets closer to FFX as MGS suffered more...so, my question:

FFT or FF9, who wins?
---

Bias or no bias, I can't see MGS struggling with FF9. FFT.

Jman_gamerX8 has owned us with his sexy plumber bracket.

Just in case this matters to somebody -- which isn't to say this is generally useless -- but FF9 has had three characters in the contests before, one of which made it twice. FFT had one character, and he was never to be seen again...not to mention he was out-seeded by two FF9 characters (maybe three, though he could have tied with Zidane technically).
---

I'd pick FFT over FFIX, barely... FFIX may have had three characters, but one of them is unknown, maybe SFFed, but probably just weak... and another one lost to that... thing.

I should mention that I am borrowing my friend's Cube and bought a used copy of Melee, and have probably killed MH 20 times this week. every time I do, I think of Kuja.

---
xyzzy

Heh.

I still wish Master Hand would see the light of another contest though, if only to be SFF-fodder. For as much as I loved seeing the glove pull the upset, I would love equally to see it get decimated by Mario in the first round. I don't care about stat-wise; Master Hand deserved to make the Summer 2k5 Contest more than Wesker due to the memory.

Speaking of which, anyone want to explain to me exactly HOW Wesker got into the Summer contest after becoming Kefka-fodder in the Spring?

Since we're talkin' 'bout SSBM and Master Hand, I gotta admit something...I, uh...I like to kill Master Hand with Sheik's chain-whip.

It's not like the whip is good for much else, anyways.
---

The same way he survived after being killed onscreen multiple times in the Resident Evil series. He's ****ing Wesker.

Meh. Everytime I think of that match, I think of this pic for Kuja.

http://kuja4ever.envy.nu/kuja%20blast.jpg

Leading up to the match, I went on and on talking about how Kuja had the "Master Hand" in that picture, and then went on to get owned... hard... Probably the hardest I've ever been owned on GameFAQs. I seriously thought that Kuja would be a miniature Sephiroth in the villains contest (i.e. at least be as strong as Kefka). That match saddened me...
---
MM are my INITIALS "There are only 10 kinds of people in this world, those that read binary and those that don't."

I would love to see Master Hand in again. while the SFF would make Link/Ganon look like Samus/Ganon, I'd like to see him against someone like Vyse. that would be interesting.

---
xyzzy

People nominated him? >_>

I dunno... frankly, I'd have rather seen someone like Robotnik get back in... imagine the chaos on the board when he would've beaten Lloyd.

...Robotnik and Kuja are really too damn weak though =/
---
Jman_gamerX8 has owned us with his sexy plumber bracket.

Yeah, not to mention Wesker didn't do anything impressive at all with Luca and had one of the lowest vote-totals we've seen since the first contest.

Replace Wesker with MH and switch it and KOS-MOS. Lloyd would have caused many a board upset and Luigi could have made an absolute embarrassing out of Master Hand to match Tifa's 78+% on Vyse.

I saw a few people talking about how Wesker would get to Mario. it's almost like Wesker is the casual Kefka.

I'm gonna laugh if #6 isn't up in the next 50 minutes and the poll starts. that'd be funny.

I would hate to see a four-pack where Wesker could win, though I would enjoy a Mario/Wesker match for the time he wasted and the bomb he laid.

You can't tell me that this fourpack wouldn't be sexy:

Wesker
Master Hand

Sarah Kerrigan
Ultros

Wesker > Ultros...?

that thing's not sexy, it got hit with the ugly stick.

---

The extremely sexy ugly stick... ^.^

Forgive me for being tempted with MH > Wesker (though I'd take Wesker). I'd probably say Ultros > Wesker, though it's close in an unfathomably-ugly kind of way.

Funny how Kerrigan goes from an arguable upset against Vincent to the consensus likely agreeing it would lose to Ultros in a matter of two months.
