That Samus robot is definitely cool. I wonder why they replaced her with some blonde chick in a jumpsuit for that one pic.

This is MP being weak. It was weak in 2004, and the fact that it was behind VC in the stats that year even though it was behind Starcraft should have told you something. Wind Waker is also weak- don't compare it to LTTP!

I don't know if MP has fallen off since 2004, although that was my guess yesterday (and not because of the Deboost)- it just feels like Metroid Prime was a very big thing back then, and is rather irrelevant now- Nintendo has moved on to Brawl, TP, SMG, etc. KH has certainly boosted a lot, but I'm still fairly comfortable with my FFX > MGS2 pick next round. Sora resisting SFF from Squall doesn't necessarly indicate KH will be able to do the same against FFX.

Diablo II will flop like all of those PC games except for Morrowind.

The only reason Morrowind didn't flop is because no one had any expectations for it to begin with. FFX still tripled it.

Sora resisting SFF from Squall doesn't necessarly indicate KH will be able to do the same against FFX.

Somehow, I think you'll be wrong on that one. MGS2 was closer to Morrowwind than FFX so it has a hell of a lot of catching up to do. KH, even if SFF'ed, the impact it'll have on it will be very small, so it should be able to escape from two PS2 games in VC/MGS2. Personally, I feel the score will be something like this.

FFX - 33%
KH - 26%
MGS2 - 23%
GTA:VC - 18%

FFX is going to triple Melee

And explain how this will be possible, MP advancing or MP not advancing.

FFX: 54%
Melee: 18%
WW: 15%
MP: 12%

Seriously, do you really think FFX will be able to do THAT?

33/26 isn't very much SFF, if any, unless you think KH is closer to FFX than I'd put it. It can certainly win; I'm just saying I still feel pretty good about MGS2 right now.

Eh, if Squall/Sora were any indication of how things are, the most likely outcome will be FFX > KH after Kingdom Hearts resists being heavily sapped.

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 4/28/2009 10:14:20 AM | message detail
I just realized the rest of the bracket has barely any Nintendo games:

Melee
Wind Waker
Twilight Princess
Brawl
Diamond/Pearl
Galaxy

Only six out of forty entrants. New Nintendo is so lame that I can't even test my "new Nintendo is going to suck" theory.

Wii fit

Why not? It's a huge seller. Plus the vote totals for it might have given a rough idea on just how many really casual players we do have on Gamefaqs. Of course, the total could be distorted by joke voters.
draarrowgant | Posted 4/28/2009 10:35:55 AM | message detail
Nice.... I was proven wrong from last night.

I figured odd power hour for VC and strong morning for MP would have MP catching up throughout the morning and through ASV....

Morning stat is from about 10AM EST; second one moments ago...

Morning% Morning Now Change
VC 25.47 13734 18157 4423
KH 37.91 20439 26656 6217
MP 23.72 12791 16564 3773
PM 12.9 6954 9017 2063

What a throughly pleasant surprise... go VC!

Unless Samus pulls a spectacular ASV, I think VC has a goooood chance of snagging this one.
