I'm almost positive Mario Kart 64 gets through in that fourpack if it's anything like SMK.

I'm not sure how Windwaker holds on to other Nintendo competition, but since it handily beat Prime and is Zelda, I suppose I'd go... MK64 > Zelda.

I guess the only reason I may possibly be overestimating it, is simply because I see SM > MP.

Yeah, it's ridiculous Sonic 3 is getting 41.32% on SMK despite SM. LoZ:LA doesn't have a lot of excuses to not beat Sonic 2 now, which will send us into a frenzy later this year for the Character Battle. Between Sonic 3 today and what many of us are expecting from Sonic 1 and probably Sonic 2 next round, there are going to be a lot of people looking for upsets when Sonic faces anybody Nintendo-y.

This match doesn't mean anything for MMX, LA, or Sonic 2.

Well, maybe Sonic 2 a little, but it doesn't have to face any decent Nintendo competition, so it shouldn't fold like Sonic 3 is here.

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 4/15/2009 3:50:00 PM | message detail
I think they'll be looking too hard and in the wrong places. Sonic has already shown he has no problem trashing Luigi, which makes me think that Bowser and Yoshi also wouldn't pose a problem. I'd also never bet on Zelda or Ganon to do something like that, which leaves Kirby as the most plausible choice, but he's destined to get big support against Sonic after what he did last year anyway.

Personally, I already see four Square near-elites ready to kick Sonic's ass; I don't wanna dabble in thought that the Nintendo underlings can suddenly rSFF him.

Mario Kart over-estimation may be happening, but it's hard to bet against MK64 > SMK and most Metroid fans point to the old Metroid-poll and say SM > MP. If those are true, look at LoZ:WW > MP in 2004 and notice those two are the only games in that four-pack that share common systems.

I doubt MK64 would beat LoZ:WW there...but it's hard to think it wouldn't come close and have a good shot at first. It would have to depend on Pokemon R/B/Y and how much LoZ-fans defend LoZ:WW against other Nintendo games now that LoZ:TP is out.


All that depends on MK64 > SMK and SM > MP though. Quite reasonable assumptions, but not yet in stone.....

H__RR____H | Posted 4/15/2009 4:16:00 PM | message detail
It's hard to see Sonic 3 LFF'ing SM considering how Samus/Sonic-2004 went and how different their games are, and rSFF by SMK should be unlikely unless the Mario Kart series is bigger here than the Metroid series (which we can't tell thanks to LoZ and the ambiguity of MM/MMX from the Series Contest).


With SMK doing so well today, why didn't it do better in the SNES-VC poll?

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3197

It's not had a port to date, its only Nintendo competition was EB, the poll was filled with RPGs, and Mario Kart is a solid brand-name around here. People may say it's got several better sequels so people think it's outdated now, but that didn't stop SSB from doing well in the N64-VC poll (and I'd say the same about LoZ:MM!). Such an unusual poll.....

It DID beat FF6 and MMX by quite a bit, the only thing unusual about that poll is Earthbound.

But then for a logical reason it might be because there are so few Rpgs on the virtual console and there's well...already a Mario Kart game on it?

This match would be more interesting if Super Metroid had 70 votes less.

Wow, Super Metroid vs. Super Mario Kart! This has got to be the closest vote I've seen in one of these contests.

It broke my heart to vote against SMK, but there's too much greatness in SM (which I believe is the greatest game ever made for the Super NES and probably the best 2D game period).

The best MK-game's on the VC, at that!

I don't want to throw the poll out though -- I don't think it's useless, at least. The RPGs played out about like how I'd expect them to (barring EB, but between EB-"demand" and being Nintendo, I forgive it) and SMK > MMX should be true considering how SMK/MM2/MM3 have been doing thus far. Really, the biggest issues with it relate back to EB: why did it get so close to CT and how did it beat SMK like that? There's my most recent issue of why SMK didn't do better, but that might clear up some if EB wasn't there and EB-demand/the poll's question helps explain both to a degree...

...which doesn't really make my EB > SMW2:YI-upset look any better, but hey, I'm counting on that difference of forty-five between them in the Top 100 List more than anything!




Though SM beat SMK there by thirty-seven spots and comes from a bigger series than EB.....

you're looking at that poll wrong. stop comparing EB to CT -- CT has loads of reasons to not do well there.

compare it to SMK instead. that's the one that wasn't held back. EB's a cute pick there. I don't know what to think of it.

You know, this match does make EB > YI seem suicidal now. Earthbound is no Super Metroid, but I'd think Yoshi's Island would be a lot more closer to Mario Kart than EB is to Super Metroid.
