How does Ulti manage a lol Goldeneye out of this? RE2 is up against 3 Nintendo games and is still getting trashed. --- Currently playing: GTAIV, SSBB, MP3, Apollo Justice, FFIVDS, Dracula X |

Alright, well, this is just confusing now. I'm gonna stop guessing at
what Donkey Kong is going to do next entirely. Crushed by LoZ, stands
up to LttP, crushed by Goldeneye/Mario RPG? --- FastFalcon and Solid Snake snapped my neck in the guru contest. |

Goldeneye is good for another round. Final Fantasy VII takes RPG support. Mario Kart takes GODDAMNED FRANCHISE SUPPORT. This level of augh is augh. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

and DKC2 bombs, figured this was coming after DKC impressed Honestly, anyone who expected DKC2 to be stronger than DKC was just asking to be disappointed. And this is coming from someone who loves DKC2 to death. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

likely to be a lot bigger by the end of the match. --- Flash runs alongside Balefire watching marshmallows stop existing. - WarThaNemesis2 |

let Mario RPG stabilize before making any snap decisions. Mario RPG has one hell of a board vote traditionally. http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/images/poll_graph.php?matchnum=3249&type=2&seconds=60&max=0 -- check out Geno. --- yzzyx |

From: KamikazePotato | #116 I never really relied on franchise voting for my pick, tbh. I still don't think this is franchise voting however, but EB's chances are looking slimmer by the day. --- *is Dranze* BGE2 - Today: GE007 > SMRPG - Points: 34/48 Vote: SMRPG |

either way, SMRPG probably loses some RPG support when FF7 joins the poll, so I'd feel good about Goldeneye advancing regardless. Also MK64. I looked at that more when I took Goldeneye. I still consider SMRPG a "Mario" game more than an RPG. I'd be willing to bet more of its popularity comes from being a Mario game more than it being an RPG or being developed by Square. I certainly don't hear these types of comparisons when people talk about the Paper Mario or Mario & Luigi games, and SMRPG certainly has more in common with those games than typical RPGs... --- Currently playing: GTAIV, SSBB, MP3, Apollo Justice, FFIVDS, Dracula X |

Why is this match franchise voting again? I would believe these are legit strengths with perhaps DKC2 being a bit SFFed. --- So I lost a bet to creativename (yeah...hardly shocking). Like usual, I should've known better! FACT: Halo 3 was 1000% responsible for Master Chief's boost. |

This is waaaay lower than I expected for 007. I suspect there was a lot
of board vote there for SMRPG but I really doubt it recovers to where I
thought it would be. It's probably good for next round regardless, but
this is a pretty disappointing start. But man RE2 is getting creamed. Another LFF "beneficiary" bites the dust. --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |

Well, this makes me slightly more confident in M64/RE1/SoTN/KSS now.
With Resident Evil supposively going to score about 18% in that match,
all we need now is some of that Kirby rSSF followed by Alucard's slow
decline over the years for my M64>KSS upset to work. --- The Gamer In Me http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=158 |

Not gonna bother comparing the games 1v1 yet. Honestly, what the hell
would be the best point of reference here? DKC2's an unknown, RE2's not
very good thanks to RE's sticky situation in 2004, and it's hard to
tell whether they're both at Goldeneye's level or SMRPG's level here. --- http://gamebros.smackjeeves.com/ http://l33trappacat.smackjeeves.com/ |

Yeah, Goldeneye has probably got this. Did you see that board vote? 100% SMRPG. Yeah, but if Mario RPG can survive until morning, it's OVER. And after seeing Mario RPG this close to GoldenEye, we can surmise one of several things: 1. GoldenEye didn't actually get SFF'd after all and its high placing on The List was due to the format and the smaller audience 2. Street Fighter II has weakened since 2004 3. Super Mario RPG has gotten stronger since 2004 (which makes sense, honestly, since this site is still more Nintendo-oriented than it was back then, even though less so than 2 years ago) 4. It's pointless to compare these matches to old matches because everything ends up making no sense anyway --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

Perhaps first in the series games do get a substantial boost? Might
explain Sonic 1 doing so well, along with DKC being far more impressive
than DKC2. Maybe the FF1/FFIV match will be more interesting than I
thought. --- FastFalcon and Solid Snake snapped my neck in the guru contest. |

From: MyWorldIsCrono | #113 It did have tremendous support on Board 8, I was expecting it to have huge bracket support. But it's so damn close that if SMRPG takes the day vote or ASV, then GoldenEye is in trouble. --- Today's Subliminal Thought Is: |

From: Dilated Chemist | #131 People say this in every match and I don't understand where it comes from. Mario RPG is an excellent game and sold a metric ****ton. It has been widely emulated, and recently got a Virtual Console release. Stop talking out of your ass because your crappy boring-ass "survival horror" game is getting the ass kicking it deserves. The Resident Evil franchise is one huge steaming pile of crap. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |

I wouldn't even be amazed if it got close to SMRPG overnight. Even if that's true, Mario RPG's day vote will bury it.
