And you guys are seriously overrating how much Sheik means
for Zelda's strength. To the point where it's being used as an excuse
to justify Zelda being strong while putting Peach down. Zelda is that
strong because she's friggin' Zelda from The Legend of Zelda. I doubt
that she'd be much weaker if she wasn't Sheik. Peach may not have a "Sheik" role yet, but she's had plenty more exposure and is pretty much a Mario staple. Given how Nintendo has dominated recently, I see no reason why she wouldn't be near Yuna's or Rikku's level. Sure she probably would get SFF'd against another Nintendo character, but I can't see her indirectly being fodder. Pac-Man is my absolute floor for Peach. --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

To me, Peach lacks appeal. She's most remembered as "the girl Mario has
to save," and lacks screentime in most of the Mario games (this is, of
course, not counting the Mario spinoffs and SSBM). I really don't think
the Nintendo fanbae would care about her, and thus, I don't think
she'll have much strength to speak of, certainly not enough to be
Yuna/Rikku level. And as for Zelda, she has considerably more screentime and is more prominent in the Zelda games than Peach is in the Mario games, most notably Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker. Both of those games gave her a much bigger role than your stereotypical damsel in distress cliche, and when those two games are top 10 on this site, trying to downplay their effects is ridiculous, IMO. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Owned by Z1mZum in the Best.

Exposure and prominence is not something that Zelda has an advantage over Peach over. And seriously, most of this "nobody cares about Peach" thing is overrated. Aeris is nothing but FFVII's "damsel in distress", but look how strong she is. Of course, everyone will try to attribute that to "but she's the spoiler!", which I frankly find to be BS. I could also turn around and say "Who actually cares about Donkey Kong???" Sure he has some fans, but for the most part you can say that Nintendo fans don't really care for him either. He still is pretty decent as far as contest strength goes. The anti-Peach people have been pretty vocal, but there are indeed plenty of people who would give Peach a vote over the likes of a Chun-Li or someone. Nobody is saying she will be a powerhouse or anything... --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

Chun-Li or someone. Nobody is saying she will be a powerhouse or
anything... Of course not, but I don't see her beating Yuna or Rikku either, neither of which is far above Chun-Li. Donkey Kong still has Donkey Kong Country, which was a big deal for the SNES, especially when it came out. And comparing Peach and Zelda to Aeris is a bit ridiculous. Sure, it's not ALL due to the spoiler, but unlike those other two damsels in distress, Aeris does (believe it or not) have a likable personality, and she plays a central role in Final Fantasy VII. Even after the spoiler, she's still a focal point in the game. I DO think Sheik does something for Zelda, as it gives her an appeal that she would otherwise lack (and which Peach lacks entirely, by comparison). It's not entirely just being the namesake of the series. "But who likes Ganondorf?" you say? Believe it or not, the final fight of Ocarina of Time is held in the same light by casual Zelda fans as the final fight against Sephiroth is held by casual FFVII fans.

as the final fight against Sephiroth is held by casual FFVII fans. I
don't really understand why, but it is. Just the atmosphere, I guess. Fighting against Ganon in OoT is infinitely cooler than any fight against Sephiroth. Fighting with Sephiroth in your party is pretty awe-inspiring, but the final battles against him aren't great.

Donkey Kong still has Donkey Kong Country, which was a big deal for the SNES, especially when it came out. And Peach has all of the afformentioned, most are which are/were bigger than Donkey Kong Country. I don't see how you can bring that argument up for one and not for the other. Besides, we all know that Donkey Kong Country is all about Diddy!!! --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

Ehh, Mario 2 is generally regarded as one of the least liked installments in the series. Sure, maybe Mario RPG was bigger (though she's not the main character or its namesake), but then there's nothing else Peach has that DK doesn't that would make a difference (Mario 3? Mario World?

That's pretty much irrelevant, especially considering how hugely popular other Mario games are. That's like saying FFVIII isn't that well liked while comparing it to FFVII. By itself, it's still a pretty popular game. And seeing how SMB2 was Peach's first real claim to fame, it is a big deal. Peach doesn't need namesake. She's about as well known as you can possibly be for a side character. As for things that they share, Peach is arguably more popular than DK in all of the spin-off games. Again, I don't see how arguments for Donkey Kong wouldn't hold up for Peach. All the supposed "Peach dislike" is trumped by her series being much bigger than DK's. I really don't see how Peach wouldn't be a midcarder... --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

And it's not "dislike." It's "apathy." There's a big difference. Nobody
really hates Peach, but it's not like she's a big deal in the grand
scheme of things. That's why she's next to last in the Favorite Mario
Character Poll (Note that this is not saying she will be weak because
of that. It's saying that there's a reason why she's next to last). --- Squall, Tidus, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden Presea, Chun-Li, Tifa, Celes, Quistis, Amy Rose, Mei Ling |

Especially against the likes of Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Bowser, etc. That poll is little indication on how Peach will perform because she just isn't the type of character to get favorite votes for the Mario series. It's a totally different story when you are seeing how she fares against someone outside of her fanbase or something. You have to read between the lines for that one. Do you really expect Peach to get votes in that thing? And few people expected DK to be able to beat Master Chief until he went and almost did it. Master Chief really isn't that strong in these things. We've seen that he just has a dedicated fanbase that makes him look good in a loss. If he did beat Peach, it wouldn't be by much. There is just too much of the site that doesn't care for him as a character at all. --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

And let's not forget about the Nintendo boost. She probably gained at
least a couple percent from that, considering that all the other Mario
characters (DK included) did. --- Pity for the Gurus is treason to Z1mZum. |

And few people expected DK to be able to beat Master Chief until he went and almost did it. It should be noted that this was likely more because of MC disappointing than DK impressing -- while there was MC/Crono, the rest of the four-pack...well, I'm not gettin' into this one again, especially while I'm drinkin' and about to celebrate my dad again. With Princess's new game and her probably having comparable or better preference in every spin-off game when side-to-side with Donkey Kong (except SSB/M, if I had to guess...the biggest of them), I'd probably give DK the edge...but Mario's SFF'd DK hardcore before and her roles in SMB2 and SMRPG may trounce DK's roles in his games -- I wonder how big the DK games really are here...hard to tell, really. --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest.

A direct matchup isn't the issue here. It's her indirect strength.
Apparently, the main source of DK's strength is DKC, and Zelda's main
source of strength is Sheik. That's pretty much the only thing that
they have over Peach in comparison, and Peach has things going for her
that they don't have. I personally don't see where the disparity comes
in. But ah well, this will go on in circles until we actually see her
in action. --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

I just said it shows she isn't a favorite. In my opinion, I can't see Master Chief getting a big fight from Peach. Not to say he'd blow her out, but she wouldn't be in contention either. --- Squall, Tidus, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden Presea, Chun-Li, Tifa, Celes, Quistis, Amy Rose, Mei Ling |

course, you feel differently and so do I. I just don't see many people
out there who CARE about Peach. And I can say the same thing for Donkey Kong and Zelda. I can also bring up points like DKC and Sheik helping them for Peach as well. I personally don't think Sheik is that big of a deal and feel that Zelda would be just as popular if she wasn't Sheik. Again, we both are small examples on opposite sides of the spectrum, but in the overall picture I think being well known long time Nintendo icons are the main reason for DK's and Zelda's repsective strengths, and I feel that Peach will follow along suit. Of course with the difference in strength being the popularity of each's series. --- Nominate Carmen Sandiego for SC2k6 Currently playing: Fable, MGS3:S, GTA:SA, MMAC |

Wow, I'm shocked there's no bracket yet. I thought for sure it would've
gone up while I was at work. Man, I'd like to see this thing ASAP, just
to see if I'm staying here or not. I haven't read anything about Peach, but the one thing that scares me about her is how weak Luigi was prior to last year. I think it's safe to assume she was weaker, but if she didn't boost as much as he did (and that we'll never know, obviously), she will end up losing to opponents she should beat (Chun-Li, for one). So yeah, Peach is an absolute wildcard. I hope it won't go to waste on pitting her against a bunch of losers, then face Samus/Tifa/Aeris/Zelda right after that. --- i thought people on gamefaqs had good taste in games i guess i was wrong -EstUmbra Oooh...

As for the indirectly bit...I could see Peach giving MC a close match, sure. Maybe not as close as DK did, but I think a 52-48 outcome is perfectly believable. It could range, obviously, but I would buy 52-48. --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |

Didn't really read into the latest posts, just skimmed, but here's my thoughts on Peach before I head to bed. Remember that, before SSBM, Peach had nothing more than the damned hover ability in SMB2. That was her claim to fame for over a decade. She also doesn't have the name recognition of Zelda. People see the name "Zelda," and the Legend of Zelda automatically triggers in their heads. Peach has nothing like that going for her. And her DS game will do near to nothing for her. --- I got a Castlevania-style whipping from Z1mZum in the Guru contest Jacksonville Jaguars (12-5) Eliminated from playoffs |

My problem with saying that Sheik did nothing for Zelda is that she's
near equal with Ganondorf. We know Peach won't be anywhere near what
Bowser is, so why is Zelda so close to him? She doesn't have any sort
of advantage over Ganondorf that he doesn't share (and in nearly every
other instance, the main villain is noticeably stronger than the
leading lady). Could be because the series is the Legend of Zelda, but it's not like Peach isn't a recognizable figure either. I'd say being Sheik has a lot to do with that. --- Squall, Tidus, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden Presea, Chun-Li, Tifa, Celes, Quistis, Amy Rose, Mei Ling |

Peach isn't really an icon. How many games have "Zelda" in the title? How many games have "Donkey Kong" in the title? Now, how many games have Peach in the title? That's what I thought. As for Zelda vs Peach, I'm not even sure Sheik helped Zelda that much. Even in Zelda's damsel in distress role, she at least appears in the games, and even helps out Link. Peach is an afterthought barely included in the ending, and that's about it. She doesn't show a hint of character as a damsel in distress. That's not a stigma that wears off because of something like "Super Princess Peach." I'd take Ness over Peach. Terra. Zidane.

People are drastically underestimating the amount sheik increased Zelda. Remember Sheik is probably the most popular Smash character. That means a lot considering the trends we see with how popular smash characters get huge boost (Samus, Kirby) while unpopular ones get a minimal boost (DK, Ness). (Bowser and Ganondolf's strength comes liitle from smash but a lot more from WW and PM). This also means peach is gonna get a substancial boost from it since she's a top 5 character. While I don't think she'll even come close to beating Zelda, I think she definitely beats DK. She'll probably beat Master Chief too aka the most overrated character among the stat gurus because of his "impressive" loses against top tier characters. |

I think Peach deserves more credit than she's generally getting in this
topic. I'd consider her a good midcarder. I wouldn't take her over
Yoshi or Luigi, but definetely over DK. As for Chun-Li, I'd probably
take Peach again, and I'd give some serious thought over any potential
meetings with Rikku and Yuna, but might end up giving Nintendo the
benefit of the doubt. --- Damn you Z1mZum! Were it not for my owning at the hands of you I would've claimed the guru crown at the 1st attempt! |

Not even close. Being a high tier character is certainly an
advantage, but it doesn't make you the most popular character. Tiers
really only matter for a small group of people. That's a lie and a half. Shiek is the most used character in the game due to how easy it is to get good with her, which is why the self-experts in the MBR dropped her down a tier in the first place. Everyone knows everything about Shiek, so naturally she is now easy to fight against. Gotta love the MBR. Those people make self-expert stats topic elitism look like Sesame Street.
