Oh boy, Nightmare fell off the map from his round 1 match. It was funny seeing him under 10% earlier.

Well, X was listed at the bottom of his 8 pack. Those folks who didn't know order mattered are more likely to have him in 2nd than in first.

Eh, considering Zelda and a joke character were in that 8-pack, 45% having him advancing is actually pretty decent for how Mega Man usually is. >_>

I think we can throw out the idea of "Nintendo LFF not existing". Frog's closer to Ganondorf than he was to Scorpion.

Samus is getting about the same percentage on Ganon that Mario got on Zelda yesterday, but hopefully Samus will make that higher by the end of the day.

Oh, no, 2k5 assured us Samus will never beat Mario as long as Mario remains Nintendo's mascot of choice. It's still interesting to look at right now though.

Or Frog/Samus for that matter?

Samus is probably stronger than Mario; the margin between them might even be back up to 2k4 levels, but she isn't beating him directly. While they normally have very different trends, I think Samus will slowly pull further away from Ganon as the match goes on- with LFF matches in which one character is guaranteed victory, the other seems to do better early.
