| Yeah, but Kasumi doesn't strike me as a character
that would be as strong now as she was back then. Not to mention
Chun-Li may overperform thanks to being the more popular fighting game
female. I'm not calling for Chun to double or anything, but still, I'd be impressed if Kasumi broke 40%. --- Moltar Status: Feeling good and hot-blooded. Joanna vs. Cortana - Bracket: Joanna - Vote: Joanna (12/13) |

Yeah, I'm almost expecting Chun-Li to overperform, but if Kasumi breaks 45% or something, I won't be surprised. --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

I don't think Kasumi has as much reason to fall as Lara or Claire/Jill,
though. She's had several releases since DoA, including one spin-off
and one game on the 360. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

With the direction GameFAQs seems to be going at the moment (lol
ZeldaFAQs), I'm think Tingle could escape the doubling from Sora or at
least not be too far off. What do you reckon the chances of this are? He'll easily break 25%, but escaping a doubling would be surprising. I would really doubt he's able to do that. --- "Master using it and you can have this." http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/160/masterjg3.jpg |

Kasumi kinda got screwed in the bracket. she's going against a more
popular fighting game character from a more popular series, so she's in
kind of a hopeless position. she could probably hang with or beat half
the field too. --- xyzzy |

After seeing Agent 47 near 30% on Sora, I can't see Tingle getting less than 25%. Even though KH2 was released in between --- CB5 Oracle Challenge - Today's prediction: Joanna Dark with 58.33% |

I'm actually expecting Sora to push 80% on Tingle. Tingle ain't exactly beloved by the LoZ fanbase, you know... And this is coming from the guy who figured Amy wouldn't get enough anti-votes to lose to KOS-MOS. >_< --- My bracket is so screwed. |
| Heroic Mario | Posted 9/25/2006 3:18:33 PM | message detail |

Eh, Sora shouldn't get anywhere near 80% on Tingle. He's nowhere near
strong enough and Tingle's not nearly that weak, unlike Amy Rose who is
just awful. --- "Master using it and you can have this." http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/160/masterjg3.jpg |

I'm expecting Tingle to break 40% because he's a twerp and will end up causing the end of humanity and because I hate him. How the **** did Tingle make it in? Who the hell likes Tingle? --- Hispanics 4 | Whites 5 Asians 5 | Blacks 4 |

For the record, we SHOULD be seeing a much stronger Sora this year.
This is the first time we've seen him post-KH2 after all... Plus, with
his 1-seed I can actually see him pulling a Kirby this year and jumping
up a tier. 80% might be out of the question since Tingle still is a
Zelda character, but I could see Sora possibly pulling off a tripling.
I don't agree with Sora not being strong enough to blow out Tingle
though... Tingle isn't exactly the most liked of Zelda characters. There are plenty of Zelda characters I'd take over Tingle. Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, Epona, Saria, Ruto, Darunia, Nabooru, Happy Mask Salesman, Impa, King of Red Lions, The King of Hyrule, the goofy little Kokiri Kid that stops you from leaving the forest, Medli, the Deku Tree... yeah, I could keep going on... --- Vote for Soma Cruz Currently playing: Grand Theft Auto 3, Castlevania:Curse of Darkness, Mega Man ZX |

People think Kerrigan/Cortana would've been a good match? SC fans care
far more about Kerrigan than Halo fans do about Joanna. I'd expect
Kerrigan/Joanna to be closer than Kerrigan/Cortana. --- Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent. |

Joanna's got the statistical advantage on Kerrigan as is, with
potential SFF, add in a touch of help from PDZ and I could really see
her take the fight to Terra (especially if there was any Devil Division
overrating). And judging from the comparable percentages,
Kerrigan/Cortana isn't that much of a stretch. --- Commit it to memory. |

The mere fact that Tingle somehow MADE the male bracket shows me that
somebody must like him. Expecting him to be so weak that he would get
10% on Sora is rediculous. --- Demyx > Axel Z1mZum owned me in the Guru Contest with his mad skills! |

I'd take Sheik, Malon, Majora's Mask, and possibly a few others over
Tingle. Still, he shouldn't be *too* bad in the grand scheme of things. Escaping the doubling seems almost crazy to me, though. I mean, it's Tingle. Sora's anti-votes are virtually nullified through that simple fact. --- Commit it to memory. |

nah, goomba would beat metroid. but it wouldn't be SFF! You really think so? Metroid's strike me as being much more appealing than Goombas. Most Mario fans don't care about Goombas, but I'm a bigger fan of Metroids than I am of Samus or Ridley, and I'm sure many others are in the same boat. Also, a Metroid would be an awesome character for SSBB. Just imagine the possibilities! --- Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent. |

I'd vote a Metroid over the entire field. Metroid Larva for 2k7!!! but I just don't think Metroid is popular enough to compete with the Goomba. only a Chocobo could do that. --- xyzzy |
