Mega Man lost to the Cube.

To train he beat up one of Cube's victims, Donkey Kong.

YOU GOT. C. CHOKE!

I could spin this into an argument that Oregon Trail is getting joke votes and the picture but what the crap is Pong doing here it just makes Mega Man 2 look like undeniable crap.

It can win, but come on man.

Sweet, Oregon Trail holds the lead for another update, but it will probably be done for on the next one.

so guys, is it possible mega man 3 doesnt even advance if the cream of teh mega man crop is this weak?

Mega Man 2 should be able to finish a few percent higher here because as Oregon Trail drops in percent, most of that should go to Mega Man 2.

Tetris nearly tripled Pong. At least MM2 doesn't look like it's as bad as Donkey Kong, but its path is pretty much set in stone unless it manages to go below 30% or something horrible like that.


Oh dear Lord, what if everyone in this match breaks 20%. Who would have seen that one coming?

In all fairness to Mega though, if we're gonna blame pictures for matches in the Series Contest, this is probably hurting it a fair bit.

And I can safely sell that selling a million on the GBC means jack. Dragon Warrior III sold a million on the GBC, and you don't see me taking it for second.

OT just doesn't want to give it up.

Also I've realized that Pac-Man probably has the strongest day vote, Pong was terrible at it in 2004, I don't see OT going anywhere, but down from here on end and Mega Man is nothing special with it.

Let's go Pac-Man > MM2.

Have faith. mega will bounce back. ASV will save him, oddly enough. Mega's bound to be a lot of kids choice of pong, Oregon Trail, and Pacman

Expect Mega to pick up steadily as pong and OT fade after the opening salvo.

Oregon Trail will probably be hit hard enough by Europe that the day vote will help it.

I mean, it's not like kiddies are going to care about Pac-Man, Pong, or Mega Man. They've at least heard of Oregon.

Of course I did. Why not? It's a million-seller twice. It's the handheld Zelda game by miles and miles. I love Mega Man X (love both games, actually), but this one seriously had me scratching my head. I'm not trying to be insulting, but when I read that people were taking Mega Man Anything against a potential top five Zelda game, I was legitimately puzzled.

Big drop for Pac-Man and Pong, big gain for Mega Man.

It looks like Mega Man's doing damage control. He might just break 35%!

I struggled with that pick quite a lot, but went with Mega Man X on gut instinct. It's the strongest Mega Man series on this site, and MMX is the flagship title. I mean yeah it'll be mad weak, but the strongest Mega Man game losing to some third-tier Zelda title?

I am so happy I changed my mind on MMX/Sonic 2, btw. I think I had MMX getting to round 3 once upon a time.

Mega Man X is probably the most popular Mega Man game, which is enough to beat the 7th best Zelda by most people's estimation.

Definitely not a match I want to gamble on. I think I have LA there myself.
