BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 10/22/2008 9:03:46 PM | message detail
We should see trends similar to Mega Man/Sonic here. Mega Man needs a good lead overnight to have any shot of this, and he'll have to keep it respectable in the power hour.

This better not be a Mario series-only drop, though. Mario is probably the one Nintendo entity that doesn't deserve that treatment! (although considering the probable reasons, it makes sense that Mario would be biggest hit wait I remember calling this before the contest augh)

I hope Zelda somehow hurts Mario more than Luigi will next round.

I imagine it's possible, since Zelda should be stronger than the green wonder, but still, X > Mario next round isn't impossible. X > Liquid, though? I can't see it.

Are my eyes deceiving me?! Mudkip in last place?!

Could it be possible that his fad finally died off?!

Nonetheless im happy to see X holding up here.

This is clearly all because Zelda is somehow holding up against the SFF here. Odd...

Way too early to be sure of course, but if X can hang close to Mario all day, I'm going to seriously regret having changed my mind on that upset in later rounds.

I mean, I expect X to fall off from here (at least during the Power Hour), but the updater site didn't get either of these two being 10+ votes apart. Amazing start for X.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 10/22/2008 9:07:12 PM | message detail
If I had to guess, I would say Luigi holds up well against Mario. It definitely isn't a Link/Ganon-esque relationship, lots of people will vote for Luigi because they like him better, or want to see him beat Mario.

There's nothing like that MM board vote, but with this being X and BRACKETS who knows.

I think that was already proven when Link Asshanded Mario in the 1st final.

then utterly humiliate Ganny.

Looks like this is confirmation that Mudkip isn't completely a joke character, but draws some of his fanbse from the Pokemon games.

Not sure if the falloff just because he's facing stellar competition or because there actually is Nintendo/Pokemon LFF.
