Then again, I thought the same thing about Ryu and Mega Man, and the Blue Bomber ended up looking like crap there. Then again, we have yet to see if that was him getting 'exposed' or just Ryu.

Expose in what sense? If he beats Kirby worse than he beats Zero, I'll eat Luigi's hat.

I'll hold you to that. >_>

i still think that whatever weirdness that happened in Kirby vs. Bowser is quite likely to happen in Kirby's favor against Luigi as well.

I'm not willing to give Kirby the absolute SFF nod over Luigi yet...we could have one of those A > B > C > A scenarios, at least when it comes to who gets the SFF in a match.

RandInt (35,70) = 58% support for Sonic.

It's nice to see that using Diablo to measure Ganondorf was rather accurate, barring some changes in popularity and this was all a coincidence.

Or rather, Diablo through Ganondorf and Sonic predicted Vincent/Sonic VERY accurately...less than .5% off.
