Yeah, this is more or less what I expected after MM2's epic fail.

Tomorrow's match should be interesting, at least, since Sonic 1, uh, failed to fail. And so did Metroid 1. Still liking Metroid 3 > Sonic 3, but that was a reasonably impressive performance on SFII.

And when exactly is FF4 supposed to be padding the percentage today? I'd assume it has similiar trends to Mega Man; Good night, die in Europe, bad day. So I don't see how its supposed to be getting big percentage on Mega Man during any of those times.

FFIV is to my knowledge, one of the iconic Final Fantasy games.

However, it is untested, has pic disadvantage and is still performing over mm3 with massive pic advantage.

Im still liking my pic of it going on to give SMW a run for its money once FF1 is out of the picture.

I don't think what they're saying has much to do with FFIV having a good Europe/Day Vote or not. It just has to have a better one than Mega Man 3.

FF at least has the franchise votes from Europe. <_<;;

But for real, I have the oddest feeling FF1 will ruin me and go to the final 8 or something.

I think people have been underestimating the chances that FF1 or FF4 have at making the elite 8. Tons of Nintendo LFF advantages along the way, between powerful games.

FF4 probably has the SFF edge between the two, though FF1 could take the "first in series" respect factor for the SFF win.

Mega Man 3 should win the day vote pretty convincingly. Though there is EUROPE to consider in the interim I don't think FFIV breaks 50% here.

I doubt it. The day vote shouldn't be convincing for either one, though I'd sooner trust in FFIV to win it before I would MM3. FFIV's got a good shot at breaking 50% here, but it may fall a bit short.
