And LTTP is doing bad? This is about where I pegged it. But if it's doing badly, I don't care! I've got Mario 3 beating it later on anyway!


I seriously hope nobody's still thinking that, since I've pointed out about fifty times in this topic already that LttP's performing as expected on Doom.

There were a couple people claiming it was doing bad very early in the match, before LttP moved up to over 50%. Granted, I haven't seen such posts in this topic or this topic's bastard twin.

Even if you look at the other MK-polls, MK:DD was against LoZ:WW and MKW was pit against SSBB...both of which the MK-games were runner-ups in the Gamecube/Wii-GotYs and their superior opponents were GotY-winners. Also, MKDS is the runner-up for GotY in 2005, only behind RE4 and ousting GoW. SMK and MK64 are unknowns to us for the most part, but we expect them to be the strongest MK-games and their sequels have done reasonably well. You also can't question their sales, brand-name, or company affiliation, so...

Even if 2005 was a crap year for games, a handheld game being runner-up GotY is very impressive considering how horrible handheld games do here. The fact that it's a Mario Kart game that did it is pretty interesting.

Hell, maybe Mario Kart DS does have a semblance of strength.

Resident Evil 4 scored 71.06% on Mario Kart DS.

So on second thought, maybe not.

Doom came back and is winning the day vote against a well-liked Nintendo game? That's it, this contest makes no sense.

MKDS is definitely stronger than Double Dash or Wii. it'd be a decent third, but a step down from SMK or MK64.

Yes choosing Doom over DKC is paying off. At the beginning of the day i thought it was a mistake.

And DKC is still displaying classic night vote trends here, doing well during the DSV and gradually improving as it goes on.

I'm pretty excited for tonight's match. If Link's Awakening wins without trouble, I think we can reasonably conclude that the top seven Zelda games would beat any Mega Man game (and probably any Sonic game).

It'll be interesting to see who gets the ASV. For some reason I just feel that DKC is gonna take that easily. At the very least, DKC should take the ASV enough to build a good enough lead to win.

This match is starting to remind me of SM vs SMK. The trend of the last couple of hours is saying DKC over Doom, and they have went from a 280~ vote lead to 200. I guess it's those Americans starting to wake up. FPS is huge in Europe, so I expect Doom to score big here.

FPS is bigger in America than anywhere else. Have you ever seen Halo's sales here compared to Europe or (LOL) Japan?

creative's site has been really slow for a couple of days now.

this is nothing like SM/SMK. that match had huge 50 vote spikes all over the place. I don't think this match has had a 50 vote spike since the second update.

I thought the feature would let you see exactly what every game got on other games in the match, but it seems like it just randomly makes 2 or 3 games face eachother and you gotta guess by the number which ones it shows
