either Sonic or even Solid Snake...not that I'm taking either one to
get past the Elite Eight right now, but it just doesn't feel right

The only thing that worries me about Riku/Yoshi. Yoshi (2005c) VS Sora (2004c) Yoshi has a strength of 29.01. Sora has a strength of 28.93. Yoshi wins with 50.14% of the vote! A win of 247 with 89,670 total votes cast. Before KH2. But it's really just wishful thinking on my part. Still, Kairi > Claire! --- caps |

Amy Rose beats Crash Bandicoot. That's what my instant reaction said.
It may or may not be right, though I'd actually guess Crash would win
in a close one. KOS-MOS vs. Crash Bandicoot just wasn't right...KOS-MOS shoulda gotten more than 62%, especially after getting 30% against Samus the next round. So, who's the fickle one, KOS-MOS or Crash Bandicoot? --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?" "Well, Z1mZum drinks punch and eats CAKE! ..I think." |

I'm sure Amy would get a nice bit of Sonic layover. Crash just hasn't done ANYTHING. That can't be good.

Dante has had DMC3:SE since the last contest, which sold like crap, but could possibly give him the smallest of boosts. Actually, as of last contest, DMC3 had sold ~300,000 copies, IIRC. Now, DMC3+SE is up over 700,000. So we could see an even larger boost than what Dante got from 2k4 to 2k5...not that we will, but still, it's enough to instill confidence in Dante > Yoshi. Phoenix Wright or Lara Croft? Lara. With ease. --- Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent. |

Also, there's no chance in Hell that Sonic, Snake, or Mega Man will defeat Crono, since Crono won't even make it that far. Ganon > j00 --- Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent. |

I'm still debating on Kirby vs Zero (assuming he wins, of course).
Sure, Zero has had a great contest past, but I think Kirby can squeak
it out thanks to these higher vote totals (of some weird different
influx from 2003). Or you could just say Kirby is the safe bet since he already beats Luigi --- “Back in my day we used to actually play our videogames instead of watching them.” - Vivi0198 |

While completely discounting Snake is ludicrous, he's still got
