Considering that Link is a good deal above Cloud, and we've seen that he can absolutely demolish Ganon, I'd say it would be close, but Link still has a shot. Ganon's not getting there though, so no need to worry.

It's in my bracket, so yeah... well other than the Ryu > MM part, but it could happen. And I definitely would not consider the N9 borked.

I'm certainly not counting on it...but since I've got Bowser > Mewtwo in my bracket, I'll only be getting one point unless Bowser swings back hardcore over Ryu or drops almost as hardcore under Mewtwo. Since the Mewtwo one is closer and it would cause so much more hell in the brackets...

...come on Mewtwo, ya ****ing Pokemon!

Well, Ryu didn't lose by too much head to head, and possible Samus SFF or just plain having a more dedicated fanbase. It's a stretch for Ryu to even make it that far, but if he does, I think it's at least a possibility.

Bowser is firmly supporting the notion of his lack of a solid fanbase. I can definitely see Ryu moving on next round even if he falls below 38% here, simply because of how poorly he's doing right now. We knew he'd split with the Nintendo vote, but honestly... this bad?

ExThaNemesis | Posted 9/9/2007 11:18:12 PM | message detail
Yeah. Confirmed that Bowser's fans are just Mario fans going "hmm Bowser, he's from Mario vote for him" in the polls until he's against a character that's actually well liked.

Yeah. S (flyhighnolie)Ballin, made some good matches in this contest, but there are some times that he seriously ****ed up. Mewtwo not being in a more favorable position is one of them, and Zolom being in Cloud's division is another.

Oh well, as disappointing as this is, I have tomorrow to look forward to.

When Sephiroth obliterates the absolute piss out of his fourpack. =)=)

I'm sure there's a bit of that in there. I've always wondered about Bowser's status as a huge favorite of people -- he's no Yoshi or Luigi within the Mario series; never has been -- but there's no doubt that most of this is Mewtwo and Toad. You take those away and Bowser's got an easy first place here, even without considering Ryu's terrible morning vote. The possibility of him losing next round is definitely there, but eh, I think Bowser without any other Nintendo characters there will do well enough to advance.

I think this has more to do with Mewtwo being 4REAL than anything Bowser is doing. Also keep in mind the actual match next round is Auron vs. Shadow vs. Bowser vs. Ryu. Very little SFF there at all. Having a shaky fanbase will not hurt Bowser next round.

Barring some really weird **** going on, Mudkip should be nowhere close to Mewtwo. Apart from being in SSBM, Mewtwo was the badass in RBY. He's a much stronger representation of his series than a joke Pokemon.

I've been saying it for awhile, maybe we can judge something with it now...but Bowser is facing nobody but fan-favorites no matter where he goes from some powerful series/game. Ryu = SF, Mewtwo = Pokemon, Toad = Mario Kart (a stretch, granted), Auron = FFX, Shadow = Sonic (and got his own game), Cloud = FF7, and either Ocelot (MGS3) or Fenix (GeoW, and was G4's best new character with 51%). Outside of maybe SMRPG (and I'd say Geno's got him beat there), I don't think Bowser can compete with his own solid fan-favorite status within his series. This format goes against characters like him, and this path of the bracket is specifically against him.

I'll wait until next round to say much more about this, but if Bowser doesn't do well against Ryu/Auron/Shadow when he could potentially beat any of them (though I'd take Auron over him), I'm pointing the blame on his fan-favoritism.

Unlike Bowser, Luigi has been a pretty significant fan favorite in the Mario series for a long time. Even if in some bizarre world Mudkip were stronger than Mewtwo, Luigi would dish out the SFF like no other there.
