this match says absolutely nothing about Mario 1 / Mario 3. those
favourites polls mean more than Mario 1 putting up big numbers on Duck
Hunt. --- xyzzy http://i42.tinypic.com/2vbwhn4.jpg |

It won't be splitting the vote with SMB3. In fact, I have a feeling
that's going to be a really ugly affair. SMB3 is so universally loved. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |

Yeah well, didn't you think Oregon Trail would have a better day vote than Punch-Out? XD Oregon Trail won the day vote. Punch-Out broke even. I don't think I even said that but I'm not seeing your point here. --- So I lost a bet to creativename (yeah...hardly shocking). Like usual, I should've known better!

Nah, Mario 3 is still going to beat up Mario 1 pretty badly, I think,
and Mario World could be in that match as well. This is more about
Mario 1 / Zelda 1, which is worth 12 points, I think, since it happens
twice. --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |

Especially scary for FF4, it's advancement to the Elite 8 hinges on
one of the SMB games being SFFd enough for it to edge foward. Scary?? This is good for it - the stronger SMB is the more it'll LFF SMB3 and LoZ. I think people will be surprised at how strong FFIV is (though I don't know why they don't have faith in it to begin with). FFIV will maul it's 4-pack (though I think MM3 will be significantly stronger than MM2, it'll still get beat down) --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |

From: trannyscience | #253 Yeah, just saying the "SMB1/SMB3 vote split" argument has more ammunition right now. I stand by my personal belief that SMB1 is SFFing Duck Hunt right now (which is why I picked Ninja Gaiden over it). --- Today's Subliminal Thought Is: |

Remember also that Mario lost the day vote to Crono that year. Actually, he won it in that he did do a little better than at night. But yeah, they had very similar trends then. Yeah well, didn't you think Oregon Trail would have a better day vote than Punch-Out? I'm confused; Oregon Trail did win the ASV.

greatone I think the Europe vote is pretty much like Canadian wrestling fans. Completely bass ackward in every possible manner. What. Canadian wrestling fans rule! The Europe vote on the other hand... Lopen but I still wouldn't be surprised if Mega Man 2 could stay kinda close to SMB in R3 despite getting 30% less. ??! Like I said before, MM2 wasn't a lock to get in the 1st round what the 2nd place of SMB/LoZ will get in that match. And that's looking pretty likely - 35% for 2nd place there should be easy to get. MM2 has a great shot at being in single digits there. I think it will be, although it might get just above it. --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |

the 2nd place of SMB/LoZ will get in that match. And that's looking
pretty likely - 35% for 2nd place there should be easy to get. Major underestimation of Mega Man 2. I don't blame you after yesterday, but I'm still not thinking Mega Man 2 just rolls over and dies. Game actually has fans, and it definitely had the toughest match yet. ... not by much, mind you. --- So I lost a bet to creativename (yeah...hardly shocking). Like usual, I should've known better!

From: M_e_g_a_6_4 | #287 Probably not by much, it's four-pack is probably the weakest in contest history. Yes, I think it might be just as bad as Link/Bidoff/Agent J/Edgeworth if not worse in complete blowouts. We have one cultish game whose main character is sub-fodder and a freaking football game.

There will be no comeback. Hayabusa won't even lose a single 15 minute

1000 will be nothing for NG. It is going to rip Duck Hunt apart in
Europe methinks. Europeans aren't as obsessed with guns as Americans,
and Duck Hunt wasn't packaged with SMB1 there IIRC. That in addition to
Hayabusa dominating the Europe vote means NG will have a couple
thousand by the ASV. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |
