Dissidia art rocks. I like it alot better then the original FF artwork for the characters who have gotten it. Plus, Clouds face Dissidia pic came out today, so hopefully he gets it for his face pic next round.

Squall was a NN breaker the second he almost took down Sonic with Sora in the poll.

We need a 1v1 contest so we can see super Squall in action.

Square's record against Nintendo in the contest thus far is 5-5, with 6-5 lookin' good for tomorrow!

Last year, it was Nintendo 15, Square 12. Hard to calculate with 4-ways though, and the sheer amount of Nintendo and Square fodder kinda messes things up, too.

In 2006, it was Nintendo 6, Square 5.

In 2005, it was Nintendo 8, Square 2. The two Square wins were Tifa over Luigi and Sephiroth over Mario.

In 2004, it was Nintendo 3, Square 5.

In 2003, it was Nintendo 5, Square 5.

In 2002, it was Nintendo 4, Square 3.

Man, 2005 was such a lopsided year.

By the way, I thought about taking Edgeworth for second tomorrow, much for the same reasons that RPGuy stated. Couldn't pull the trigger on it, but I'll be rooting for him.

Me? I'd love to have the balls to pick Edgeworth, but I didn't. If it was Link instead of Cloud, maybe...

If it was Link, nobody would pick Midna. Some poor fools would pick Axel instead, though, I suppose.

Let's see...

Yoshi > Falco
GlaDOS > CATS
Nathan Drake = Wander

Who's got the edge here? Squall obviously had the strongest single character in his group, and they both had a bad fodder character. GlaDOS beats CATS, but is it by more than Yoshi beats Falco (not including SFF)?

I think Squall has the tougher trio, even though I'd consider Wander a smidgen better than Nathan. Yoshi is just too far removed from anyone Vincent faced.

You can believe that if you want to, but Yoshi actually did slightly better on Knuckles in round 2 than in round 1.

Actually, saying there was Mega Man/Yoshi SFF means Mega Man did BETTER than he was supposed to do! I can get behind this!

Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 10/9/2008 6:04:13 PM | message detail
some quick on the 400 posts since last night (seriously, wtf)

1) Axel is advancing tomorrow. Every year there's one really obvious pick that noone seems to see but me. Ness > CJ, Pac-Man > Ocelot, Warcraft > GTA, Ryu to round 4. If it was any other Nintendo character but Midna, I'd say he doesn't have a chance. But take into consideration how much Midna sucked last year. She was easily below the fodder line, and this was when Twilight Princess and Nintendo in general were relevant. Axel is the only real non "hardcore" character there (I use the term loosely since I never would consider Zelda or FF hardcore, but w/e). People will be franchise voting him to hell and back. If Midna beats him, I will eat my words, but I'm VERY confident in him advancing. He will be losing the board vote though.

2) Squall is easily the strongest non-NNer now, and I'd take him straight up over Sonic and Crono, and maybe to give Mega Man/Snake a good match now that Snake has fallen back to earth. Think it goes Squall > Vincent > Auron > Chief > Ganondorf as far as the strongest 5 non-NNers go.

3) Dissidia will do nothing for noone. It's a PSP game. Seriously guys, come on.

People are basing off a lot the first round matches here. Let's wait and see how things go next round for Vincent and Squall.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 10/9/2008 6:07:09 PM | message detail
Actually, saying there was Mega Man/Yoshi SFF means Mega Man did BETTER than he was supposed to do! I can get behind this!

Considering he almost matched Snake's percentage in 2006, I'd say there was some SFF there. Not as much as Mega Man/Yoshi 2005, but enough to skew the result. Even with the Nintendo De-boost, this is a really impressive performance for Squall, and most of Aeris' percentage going to him last year shows that he gets a good chunk of his strength from FF8 and Kingdom Hearts only compliments that. I think he's going to hold up pretty good against Cloud this year, certainly enough to get past a weakened Yoshi.

As for Mewtwo advancing if Sora is there, it makes sense, but something tells me Mewtwo is going to bomb in round 2. Just call it a gut instinct.

Eh, I'm not really trying to base anything off of their matches. I'm just trying to get a read on what people think. I understand that these are just two matches, but there's nothing wrong with a little speculation!

Compare Mega Man and Snake's matches. It's clear Mega Man is a step above Sonic and Crono, and Snake is a step down from where he was. I still think Snake beats Mega Man, but it would be a close match. Certainly closer than Mega Man/Sonic would be.
