NOMINATE JAY SOLANO (Operation Shadow) for 2k6!

Of course mgs4 is bigger than KHIII, but mgs4 is also coming out a lot sooner than KHIII. Isn't the next metal gear launching with the ps3? Or at least close to that? I've never actually looked for specifics, that's just what I thought. Anyway, kh3 isn't going to be around until at least significantly after FFXIII, since it's the same people working on both, more or less. I didn't mean the question as an immediate future type thing, more along the lines of, where does kh go from here, if anywhere.

Because you can't honestly expect the board to rally strongly behind a serious character. It won't happen.

Good thing Board 8 alone dont decide the noms...gotta keep out these wasteful fodder characters...


Steve, I never had a problem with you until you started hating on Jay, but now... -100 respect points, man.

The whole point of these contests is fun. Jay makes things more fun for hundreds of us, simple as that. Half the characters have to lose in the first round anyway, and I doubt any of those losers (except maybe CATS) will make as many people happy just by being in the contest as Jay.

if the field is indeed 32 male characters, Phoenix Wright has about a 0% chance of winning a match.

Not if he gets to face one of the 32 female characters!!

"Jay Solano getting into the contest will be fun!"

Yeah...Seriously though, I understand there's a difference, but people DO complain about the ease of the bracket quite often.

And there are no less than 50 separate rally topics now.

you don't know Bonk? damn, I forget how old I am sometimes :(

Don't worry, I remember Bonk. (Not sure if that helps or not...) He was never in the same league as Sonic and Mario though. I only knew one guy who had a TurbGrafix.

Noble Nine circa 1992:
Mario
Sonic
Link
Mega Man
Samus
Cecil (!)
Carmen Sandiego (!!)
Pit (!!!)
Ecco the Dolphin (!?!?!?!)

Okay, maybe not...

God, seeing some of these 1992 post, I'm wondering if you're even alive during that time.

The noble nine in 1992 would have like a lot of street fighter 2 characters and maybe some MK characters but that might be too new at that point and I'm not too sure when in 1992 it came out.

Noble nine would be

Sonic
MArio
Ryu
Ken
Guile
Chunli
Megaman
Bonk
Link

Actually, that sounds just about right. For a second in time, SFII was Gamefaqs' FFVII.

Ryu(SC1992) = Cloud(SC2k3)
Akuma = Sephi
Chun = Tifa
etc.

P.S. In terms of characters, it would be a better fit for Bison=Sephi/Akuma= Vincent but then the lolxstats wouldn't work!

Not bad, wins for Ice Climbers. Besides them though, the other characters are pretty much lame in SSB:M.

I think he needed to put someone in that isn't in the SSB series. That's my only explanation.

This picture just gives the impression of Mario and his crew defecting from SSB...and then we suddenly see what's left and SSB goes down horribly in flames.

Much like the actual match.

Seeing as how we've got Metal Gear and Super Mario Brothers in the Final Four as well, there's still time to put each in one match picture.

I'd rather see Classic MGS2 Snake before this is all said and done, though.

Speaking of the banner, we're losing another character today (though we would be losing one either way). Only Link, Raiden, and the Mario crew remain.

I'm curious what the FF picture is gonna be.

It could either be very strong (Cloud, Squall, Tidus and Seph) or very weak (Chaos, Edward, Gau, Exdeath)
