I don't think Ninja Gaiden would do much better in a poll against anyone else.

Well, I said yesterday either Duck Hunt would win big or Ninja Gaiden would win gradually. Damn you Leon for convincing me to change away from my NG pick -_-

So, I haven't seen anyone talk about it, but...

does this total pathetic showing by Galaga show any weaknesses for Tetris? Ninja Gaiden is putting like 6*% on it when Tetris could only do 78%?

This pathetic vote total comes from two things: There are essentially only three games in this poll, and people only care about one of the games. 2004 also had a ton of "who cares?" matches, but vote totals will be huge when you get 4 games everyone likes.

It might. Hell if anything I'd say Mario Bros would be hurting NG more then Galaga here since Galaga isn't even on the same system or is a sidescroller.

There was no reason for Tetris to SFF Galaga or Pong either, but it did. Mario would SFF pretty much any non-Zelda, non-Mario game from that era.

My post from earlier...

SMB is currently getting 13.68% on Duck Hunt, in 2004 LoZ got 12.96% on Donkey Kong.

LoZ vs. SMB
52.63% - 47.37%


Depending on how LoZ does tomorrow I'd still call SMB the underdog.

But that's within the rSFF gray area. If Mario wins the Nintendo split, he can still win the match.
