No I haven't. But getting the general gist of the story and characters means I won't be playing it any time soon.

And then there's the whole fact that lloyd attracting elementary schoolers makes even less sense then the rest of your crackpot theory.

You are aware that he's not a pokemon, right?

You didn't play RPGs in elementary school?

I started on the SNES Final Fantasies and Chrono Trigger when I was in the fifth grade.

I'm not talking about the little kiddies, I'm talking about kids in the 10-14 age bracket. Still in elementary school.

XD.

I knew it! You have no idea. If you did you wouldn't call it kiddy. It's actually quite adult, despite originally appearing different.

That's quite something, Most elementary-aged kids don't play games that are more than a decade old.

Rapid analysis, accurate judgment, and superb powers of concentration. That is all we need.

And for the last hour hk and lloyd have been going 50/50 with each other.

Yeah, no way hk loses this now.

But he's still faster.

Also, match pics up later tonight. Can't wait to see that fourpack of doom's. I'm predicting Ness to be the only character that doesn't look like crap there.

I feel good backing the Pokemon loyalists + 4chan (not that I would ever go then in a million years) but it sure isn't a mortal lock. And it will be funny to see how bad Luigi looks in the intial bracket vote frenzy.

Should I start running now?
dragoontheguy | Posted 9/18/2007 1:29:07 PM | message detail
I avoided outright stating I had bidoof winning his match due to possible laughable failure... But my bracket has mudkip winning tomorrow too. >_>

On a scale of one to ten, how screwed is my bracket I put together in five minutes or so without revising? ten being completely screwed and 0 being lol it's okay u choose mudkip, itz only one match.

You know this a perfectly acceptable afterschool stall, but man Lloyd sure had us going with that 2:30 to 3:00 cut.

Zylo the wolf | Posted 9/18/2007 1:31:21 PM | message detail
But he's the main character in Kid Icarus, surely many of you enjoyed his games and the Captain N cartoon enough to vote for him over the other useless characters, right?

I've been playing games since I was 5, and I hadn't heard about Kid Icarus until the SSBB announcement.

Then again, I also don't remember Captain N.

I don't know how old you are Black Turtle, but it must have been impossible to be around during the Nes days and not have seen Pit, the same thing goes for Little Mac......

YoAriel33 | Posted 9/18/2007 1:42:14 PM | message detail
Even if Brawl hype does prove to be a factor, Pit is at a severe disadvantage by facing a well-liked, popular Nintendo character that has appeared in both Smash games. The people excited for Brawl aren't going to vote for Pit; they're going to vote for Luigi.

Look at Fox's match. Captain Falcon has a hell of a lot more than just Brawl hype, but a lot of good that did him when going up against a more popular Smash character. Kid Icarus alone will not give Pit the win over Mudkip. Brawl hype must play a factor, and it must be big enough to warrant fans voting Pit over Luigi. I really, really don't see that happening.

I wanted to give Pit less than 12% in the oracle. But I kind of succumbed to peer pressure. For some reason it seemed most people were averaging over that so I just caved.

How many Pit fans can there be left on the site anyway?

This story is not an end yet.
Because only you are in the infinity loop.
heroic tranny | Posted 9/18/2007 1:46:18 PM | message detail
I think the better question is, "how much is Smash hype alone worth?"

I originally had him down in the 12% area too, but raised it because I just fear SSB. he's the Guru favourite, too -- what?

then again, I was surprised Lloyd was a 3:1 favourite, and he looks to be legit here.

4chan will NOT fail in getting it to the next round.

looks like HK's got this. what a weird scare that 2:30-3:00 time period was.

and Zero's still dropping. this is really the story of the match. he really does have Crono trends - last year's match wasn't a fluke.
