LTTP, FFVII, CT, and OOT all over 50% again. Let's do this.

SMW's looking great, but it's going to look SO much worse next round.

Oh, and in this I've missed how badly MM3's being killed. My only hope is that SMB1 and LoZ won't do this to MM2, but I don't know how it won't now. Damn.

At the very least, this confirms it: Mega Man has finally earned its nickname of Blue BOMBER on this site, right?

Looks very even.

If I had to bet here, my money would be on Mario Kart.

I really hope Super Metorid wins over SMK tomorrow. But I doubt it will :(

What the hell is DK doing? Dancing the Donkey Konga?

Other than that, awesome pics. Pic factor is not going to matter here, that's for sure.

That's what DK and Diddy do if you stand too long without doing anything, a la Sonic's foot-tapping in the Sonic games.

Aw yeah awesome LttP pic. Super Metroid would look better with the Varia suit rather than the Gravity suit!

DK Jr. is in the Mario Kart pic, DK LFF confirmed and Super Metroid advances!

DKF

All four pics are great. I suspect LoZ:LttP's going to look better than last round and SMK advances. SM and DKC are both platformers and I trust the Mario Kart brand-name to hold up better than the Metroid/DKC brand-names due to MK64/MP/DKC2's performances. Metroid's performance against SMB/LoZ did no favors for SM's argument either.

Ah, you know it's funny, these people, they go to sleep. They think everything's fine, everything's good... They wake up the next day and they're on fire.

SMW currently has 59.14% on FF1 and FF4 combined, and rising, compared to 55.46% on FF1 alone last round. We saw numerous obvious winners underperform with characters in round 1 last year, and it may be that the same thing happened with games this year. If so, we can expect to see our top games impress in the coming days.

Last night I said that SMW looked much better; right now, with it looking like it's going to end around 60% on FF1 and FF4 combined, I'm going to call it the favorite to place next round. 60-40 is a very tough gap to turn around with LFF, unless SMB3 SFFs SMW significantly, which I seriously doubt will happen.
---
Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests.

I'm still plenty confident in FFIV advancing next round. All I need to see in this match is the fact that MM3 is sitting under 10% -- if it had held up like people had anticipated, SMW would be below 50% easy right now. We'll see how it goes, but I'm not buying the silly SMW hype train all of a sudden, which reminds me...

Rank the Mario games now that everyone seems down on SMB3 and up on SMW and SMB1..

Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario World
Super Mario 64

We aren't going to have an SFF beat down next round. Sure, SMB3 will likely beat SMW and hurt it a bit, but its not going to do a beat down like todays match with the FF games. There are many more people who prefer SMW over 3 then FF1 over 4.

Mario 3
Mario World
Mario 64
Mario 1

That's how I'd imagine the hierarchy would be directly. Indirectly? World, 64, and Mario 1 are probably not far off.
---
http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif

How far is 'not far off'?

---

I'd say World and Mario 1 are probably 55/45 or even closer indirectly.
---
http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif

MM3 being in this match makes things look even better for SMW. It's getting SFF'd so badly that it's not really hurting SMW much, but it's not helping it either- remove it, and SMW gains more than the FF games.
---

I think all three of them can probably go 45% indirectly. Mario 64 looked awesome.

So are we at the point where half the top 10 are Mario games yet !

Mario is probably the most consistantly strong series here. Weird it didnt do better in the series contest

Pretty close!

FFVII
OoT
CT
LTTP
Mario 3
SSBM
Mario World
Mario 64
Mario 1
Lost Levels

There we go.
---
http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif

Well, there's a reason it is the 3rd strongest series, and got closer to Final Fantasy than I would have thought possible. Since it's clearly inferior to Zelda and FF at the top levels, it makes sense that it makes up for it by having more depth in the lineup.

...How much better did you expect it to do?
---
http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif

Nah. Mario games are plenty strong, but they've just gotten matches that make them look better than they actually are. Not that I expect anyone in here to agree given how hyped everyone is on Mario right now.

---

best Mario game worse than the ninth best Final Fantasy game owned

---

But, if we're going to rank the top 10 again....

Final Fantasy VII
Ocarina of Time
Chrono Trigger
A Link to the Past
Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Final Fantasy X
Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow
Final Fantasy VI
Final Fantasy VIII

The trio of Mario games comes right after that. I'm going to hold judgment on FFVI until after its second round match- maybe it'll do better like SMW did today.
---
Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests.

So...

FFIV vs. SMW 1v1. Does FFIV break 40%?
---
Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg
Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world!

The only Mario game I'd put in mine is SMB, which bumps Pokemon out for 10th. I've got FFVI there, too -- gotta see how it does this round before I possibly drop it out.

...Yes. I think.

Absolutely. Consider me shocked if it couldn't.

---

Yeah, I'm inclined to be a little more lenient on FFVI and FFVII after today's performance - if Mario World underperformed last round, those were the other two games that looked weaker then they should have last round.
---
Mustache...and Green...

Absolutely. Consider me shocked if it couldn't.

Only reason I hesitate is because you have to imagine that SMW's floor in that match is its current %, which we'll round to 54% right now.

Give FF4 the 24.25%, and you have around 22% left. Even if you give FF4 every single FF1 vote (which isn't too big a stretch so long as we're being simplistic about this), and FF4 is at 37%.

MM3 holds the last 9%. If SMW can take that 9% at 2 to 1 over FF4, it breaks 60, which I think it might be able to do, although it probably doesn't. I side with FF4 in this hypothetical, but it's pretty close to me.
---

FFIV would take a bigger chunk of the MM3 votes than most people would give credit. Unless everyone now believes that round 1 was a fluke (or that FF1 has now fallen pretty dramatically from its 40% on SMB3 back in 2k4, which no one believed before today, for good reason), I'm not seeing this SMW with 60%+ stuff. I could buy that it might not do as well as FF1 showed last round despite being the stronger game, but I don't think there'd be much struggle in it breaking 40% -- it'd probably do so with room to spare.

I'm gonna keep on going, I know I'll be strong.
http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z114/Javer8000/FanimeCon2008/Sandbag.jpg

I think personally, I'd take FF4 to reach 41%, maybe 42%, it's just, I could see SMW break 60% at this point (when prior to this match I would have thought it silly), but definitely not something I'd consider to be probable.
