...Was Driller weaker than Tanner, assuming no Tanner/Snake SFF? I'd believe it, but that kinda takes away some of Tanner's luster.


I believe Tanner was SFFd.

I'm obviously biased toward Spring 2004. It made us forget about CNET destroying our site for a couple months.

I'm gonna go out on a limb -

I'm more worried about Punch-Out beating Tetris than DK beating Punch-Out.

What do you think of Division 2 with the two FF games going against SMW and Mega Man 3? If they do cause each other to both lose, then I have

SMB 3
Sonic 1
SMW
Mega Man 3
>
???

This is a tough one. Could they do the same thing as the two FF's or will SMB 3 prevail? Would Sonic get enough for first?

The Mario games kill in that scenario. I'd go Mario 3 > World.

Gotta disagree, Tetris's play-rate/respect/fans will give it first with room to spare...that's almost certainly a fact. Arguments for DK > PO aside, I don't know how well any NES game not from a brandname that's relevant today can do. Contra got ~30% on FF, RCR got ~32% on Pong, DH couldn't beat DK despite being a pack-in, Tecmo and Crystalis should be destroyed later (Battletoads, too, if 4chan stays out)...that's a dangerous trend for PO to go against. I don't think it's got that good of a chance for second, even, though it's possible...but it's not beating Tetris.

Sonic is Nintendo in everyone's mind and has been for almost two console generations. It's very possible.

I still think Character Battle I holds that distinction. So much awesome stuff in that one.

What is going to take its percentage? Pac-Man? I'll take that sig bet if you really want to for a couple of weeks. I'm thinking Mega Man 2 breaks 60% in that one, personally. That group is total garbage.

You do know that I'm kinda pretty good at predicting percentages right? I don't want to take advantage of you or something :) There's really only maybe a 10% shot of it getting 50%, and that's if we're being generous. This is not a good bet for you at all.

You don't have to do the sig bet, but I'll roll with it. MM2 not breaking 50% in the first round. 2 weeks.

For something more interesting - and that you'd actually have a good shot at winning - how about this too (or if you prefer, instead): I say MM2's percentage in the 1st round minus 10% will be less than the percent that the 2nd place of LoZ/SMB gets in the division finals. For instance MM2 gets 40% 1st round, then I win if the 2nd place of LoZ/SMB in the division finals gets 30+%. (if the sun explodes and those two don't place 1/2 in that round then you win) Winner gets the other's sig for the rest of the contest after that. What do you think?

Well that's a bit more easy (guaranteed) to win, but I'm just going to call you on my terms, Mega Man breaks 50% in round one. I really can't see any of those games taking enough percentage to dent Mega Man here, and when I win it will be all the sweeter cause you just said I had a 10% chance of winning.
