C/D - SMB3 will get a 90% update

Nope, Monkey Island's European vote would prevent that at night while during the day it's harder to pull those kinds of updates.

Tranny's analysis is awesome and makes me feel bad for trying to be serious!

I also may have over-shot...but screw it; I sent it before the contest even started. Here's to hoping for a massacre.

Round 1 - Division 2: Match 2

SimCity


Wow, what turbofodder

Super Mario Bros. 3

At least in the top 5 of everyone's favourite games list

Tecmo Super Bowl

Damn this game was awesome back in the day

Secret of Monkey Island

Guybrush completely blows year after year. HEY GUYS, LET'S GET HIS GAME IN SO WE CAN SEE JUST HOW NICHE OUR OPINIONS ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Analysis:

Wow..... after SMB's competition, I didn't think it could get any worse. Mario 3 is going to be pushing for 80% here. To put it in perspective, the best Link could do was 70% against Agent J, Bidoof and some other piece of turbofodder I couldn't be bothered to look up. THAT is just how bad the competition here is.

I really don't want to think about this match any more than I have to so I'll just say SimCity wins because it has Bowser in it, and Bowser pulvurized Guybrush.

TuRtLe's Prediction: Mario 3 77%, Sim City 10%, Monkey Island 7%, Tecmo 6%
TuRtLe's Bracket: Mario 3 > Tecmo
TuRtLe's Vote: Mario 3

Yeah, it's hard to vote for games you haven't played over games you have played, even if you didn't like it. That's why you don't hear of a whole lot of games/characters with anti-votes.


Sonic 1 - 85%
Street Fighter 2 - 70%

Monkey Island probably takes the lead overnight thanks to that killer night vote. (EUROPE) Simcity proooooobably takes the lead back, but I'm not really sure if this is anything other than bracket votes. Mario 3 could hit 78% here and I wouldn't be too surprised. I kinda expect it, actually.
