You'd think half the people in this topic don't read any posts. Mario isn't screwed at all next round unless Luigi winds up doing good against his brother. Luigi could get creamed ala Peach/Daisy, or he could pull a Zero and do even better than expected.

Remember Mario/Zero in 2k5?

Remember Luigi/Zero in 2k6?

Remember R3 in 2k7?

When Mario and Luigi are facing MMX in the third round, it feels really odd to say Luigi could be like Zero...and that he could do better than expected because of it.


There's got to be a better analogy! I'm with what you're generally saying, but mentioning Zero there as a comparison is confusing in multiple ways.

Isn't it supposed to be first appearance? Meaning he'd get something similar to what he got last year.

Images must be 70 pixels wide by 150 pixels high, and use the character's sprite from a game where they've appeared in 2D. If the character has never been shown in 2D as a sprite, the simplest in-game render from their earliest appearance is appropriate (like last year's Round 3). The background should also be from a 2D or early apperance, but faded enough not to obscure the sprite. Do not include character's name in text; it will be added in a common style.

Early appearence is optional, I think.

...so, wait, 2D pictures and sprites are acceptable then...

...perhaps like Solid Snake's codec-face in MGS1? If he felt REALLY generous, maybe Solid's "sprites" from the Mr. Game & Watch/Electroplankton levels of SSBB?

And HM already made a Snake Codec face, I believe. It's probably too close to being a face shot to count though.

I meant Luigi could pull a Zero in the sense that he might completely avoid SFF from Mario, ala Zero/Mega Man.

If you want another example, I guess we could use Samus/Zelda

This day morning/day/ASV vote has removed all doubt I had of Mario not being LFF'd a decent amount here. No one who's supposedly being LFFd a lot would be able to swing so much.

True, pic factor is overrated somewhat. After all, RE beat SF in the Series contest with a pic that was about as bad as Solid ****. But I still say Scorpion's out of contention.

I don't like that pic for Ganon, too much forehead. I actually had to stare at it for a second before I realised what it was, it's cool after that but lends a bad first impression which is what's crucial.
