Even though his game calls a Nintendo system home, we can logically
assume that Travis doesn't really appeal to that traditional fanbase.
He's up against three pure Nintendo characters (let's not argue that
Pac-Man is anything but), so he should already be getting a nice
boostie from the three-way fanbase split. Factor in the fact that he
looks great and has an awesome name, and I think he'll can do very
well. I personally expect him to hit the mid-teens, which is where
Pac-Man could also wind up. --- Yoblazer: NO LIMITS Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

lol PS3 games And I didn't say that Travis would advance, just that he may edge out Pac-man or Ness for third if either one bombs. Learn to read. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

I don't expect Pac-Man to get less than 20% unless Mewtwo and Ness do a
number on him. I really doubt Ness does, and there's a good chance
Mewtwo won't affect him either. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: 1st place, 57296 votes, 45.06% |

Uhh Pac Man isn't a Nintendo character in any way. He probably has more
Sony games then anything. He's just a classic video game icon that gets
SFF'd by other classic gaming icons. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n4/tellie1218/Obama_for_President_550.jpg |

Oh, I won't disagree about GH probably beating some of those older,
niche games that the 2004 games contest was rife with. Problem is, if
we have another properly run games contest next year, I expect to see
very few of those games in the bracket. It would beat current games as well though. Unless you're calling a properly run bracket to have every single big name FF, Zelda, Mario, SSB, and Metal Gear game, Guitar Hero would more than hold its own. I wouldn't call it a "one and done" type. --- Proud Supporter of Zero |

Of course, Pac-Man got SFF stomped by Yoshi, who in turn got SFF stomped by Mega Man. That's an even more unreliable number. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: 1st place, 57296 votes, 45.06% |

I'm still slightly boggled as to why Pac-Man is Nintendo. I don't deny
it, last year's match was proof enough. But I never associated him with
Nintendo until last year. --- 69/88 points - The Great GameFAQs Character Battle VII NP: Cloud Strife > Midna | http://www.thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=0 |

I'd say it's more old school than Nintendo, honestly. That's why I highly doubt Mewtwo and Ness will do that much to Pac-Man. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: 1st place, 57296 votes, 45.06% |

ffmasterjose (#122) Its not Nintendo. Its classic gaming SFF. Pac Man only appeals to classic gaming, and Mario is more relevant to classic gaming then Pac Man. Nintendo is just so closely tied to classic gaming people assume its Nintendo SFF. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

Surprised to see Cloud still under 60% here. Looks like he might still
have a shot at it before this is over, but it won't be by much. brawl de-boost link beats cloud's percentage against tougher competition 'owned' --- kept you waiting, huh |

Travis is from the kind of game that appeals to GameFAQS more than most

To be honest, I think Pac Man gets sff'd the least here. How many kids
growing up playing pokemon even know who Pac Man is? And barely any of
Ness' votes are from Earthbound, so its the kids growing up playing
Smash Bros that knew him. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

If you're counting on Mewtwo to SFF Ness' SSB votes, you're not
thinking things through. Ness has been in all 3 SSB games, was godly in
the first and is decent in Brawl. Mewtwo was only in Melee and was
terrible in it. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

KamikazePotato (#138) Didn't say that. I'm just saying most of Ness' fans are from Smash Bros, so Ness isn't exactly popular with the old school gaming fans either. I don't see any character who can really SFF Pac Man with old school gaming votes here. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

many kids growing up playing pokemon even know who Pac Man is? Like... all of them? Everyone knows Pac-Man.
