Saying Mac should have Nintendo trends is like saying Bushido Blade should have Square trends. Or something. Maybe there's a better analogy here to be had but you get the point. Nintendo in name only, really. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

and yeah I expect DK to be better in the Power Hour. there's a reason,
that as we get closer to the night vote, we get Punch-Out doing better
and better. --- yzzyx |

Hahaha, one-vote cut. I hope you all realize this isn't really a battle of which game is better, but rather which game sucks less. Cuts and lead switches are happening because one of them drops more than the other gaining votes. Both games are still fodderific, especially with Tetris breaking 50%, and I have a feeling we're gonna see some wonderful blowouts in the near future. --- http://gamebros.smackjeeves.com/ http://l33trappacat.smackjeeves.com/ |

One last comment before I leave: The best part about this match is that Punch-Out had almost no good arguments. And DK still wasn't the favorite...because he's DK. --- FastFalcon believed in Snake. I didn't. |

DK always does well with the night vote and the dead zone. I expect
he'll do better as the night drags on, if Little Mac having Megaman
trends is any indication. After the dead zone DK sort of just ignores
all the times that define other trends and steadily gets worse for the
rest of the poll. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 0/0 Bracket: Tetris > Punch-Out --- Vote: Punch-Out |

The best part about this match is that Punch-Out had almost no good arguments Punch-Out has fans, however few, and DK loses the apathy vote to Tetris. tl/dr version as those hip kids say. Better than any argument I've seen for DK aside from maybe NGamer's "look at how Super Punch Out did on this poll" --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

So how is Oregon Trail/Pacman looking right now? Cause I went with Pac
for the safe pick but I'm not feelin confident in that at all now. --- The Straight Up G The Palace of Wisdom Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko |

Yeah, nobody cares about the original Donkey Kong. I bet Donkey Kong
the character gets most of his support from Donkey Kong Country, and
that still doesn't amount to much. --- Donkey Kong Country 2's path to Best Game Ever '09. vs. Super Mario RPG, Goldeneye, Resident Evil 2. Ugh, my top 3 games in the same match. |

Oregon Trail is an unproven entry and we have no idea how it will go.
However, the closest entrant I know of to it is Carmen Sandiego, and
that doesn't give me much confidence. --- Donkey Kong Country 2's path to Best Game Ever '09. vs. Super Mario RPG, Goldeneye, Resident Evil 2. Ugh, my top 3 games in the same match. |

Pac-Man should fail even worse in the face of Mega Man, I think. Oregon Trail pickers should feel good right now...! --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

DK being so close to Punch-Out makes me fear for Oregon Trail tomorrow;
on the other hand, Tetris doing so well is a good sign that MM2 can SFF
Pac-Man into oblivion. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 0/0 Bracket: Tetris > Punch-Out --- Vote: Punch-Out |

Metroid got 60% on Pac-Man right? Hmm, yeah....I dunno. My instinct says Pac-Man, but that's crashed and burned more times than my Oregon Trailer. <_< Har... --- SSB Brawl Code: 0903-4850-3529 - *is Tai* Boston Celtics: 54-19: Next: Friday @ Atlanta Hawks (7:30 PM EST, NBA TV) |

However, Pac-Man might not get squashed worse than Donkey Kong simply
because I think more people respect Pac-Man the actual game. I really
don't think Donkey Kong has a significant amount of fans at all. But I
do think Mega Man 2 has more squashing power than Tetris, too. Should
be a good one. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Ok, I'll give OT this: People may have played it more than Pac-Man
since it was on a computer. I know I did, even though I blew at it to
save my life. But still, does that make it more popular?! --- SSB Brawl Code: 0903-4850-3529 - *is Tai* Boston Celtics: 54-19: Next: Friday @ Atlanta Hawks (7:30 PM EST, NBA TV) |

I'd be very confident that the shared fanbase (people who have played
both) favors Oregon Trail over Pac-Man. The question is whether MM2 can
stomp on Pac-Man's recognizability votes enough. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 0/0 Bracket: Tetris > Punch-Out --- Vote: Punch-Out |

Oregon Trail was big time at schools back in the day. I'd wager its
playrate is in the same league as Pac-Man. Although on this site, being
a gaming site, Pac-Man has it beat. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

leech old-school arcade votes and nostalgia freaks, Mega Man 2 to leech

I don't think so. I think Pac-Man is pretty much pigeonholed to that
