The difference here is this is something new rather an old idea that became useless by the end of 2003. Also using 95k gets us... Tetris - 2641 - 12.75% Mega Man 2 - 2145 - 10.36% Super Mario Bros. - 8713 - 42.07% The Legend of Zelda - 7210 - 34.81% The only problem here is that we need to find a number where everyone will vote for even if it's Crystalis/Phantasy Star IV/Prince of Persia/Tecmo Super Bowl. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: FFVI > Sonic 2 Points: 117/168 |

And
it looks like Link's Awakening is going to outdo its first round
percentage by a good bit. So for all the "Triple. Nintendo. LFF."
people that think Sonic 1 is going to hurt Mario 3/Mario World next
round...would Link's Awakening be beating FFVI if it wasn't for Sonic 2
(or MMX)? --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |

Once
again, SFF from the 8/16 bit era is so androgynous that it's hard to
see any game hurting any other game to any significant margin more than
the other games in the poll. |

Twice
in a row now, LA has proven to be worth somewhere in the mid-40s
against Final Fantasy VI. I'm not sure how a match against Wind Waker
would play out, but regardless, I now feel pretty good about calling it
a top four Zelda game (because there's no way the original takes it
directly). Needless to say, I feel pretty vindicated after people
laughed at me when I called it an upper tier Zelda! You guys need to
play it more. --- Yoblazer: http://i37.tinypic.com/x1d2s9.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I
don't trust those early games against their more recent brothers. Those
NES Mega Mans would die against X, we saw what happened to FF1 against
only a slightly more recent FF, and I think we all get the feeling that
Mario 1/Mario 3 is going to look very ugly in a few rounds. I'd take
the original Zelda over Adventures of Link no problem, but I'm not even
sure if I'd side with it over Majora's Mask. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/8zkzm1.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Not that that's saying too much. What the hell happened to FFVI? I'd say it's more a case of LA's strength. FFVI didn't look bad against MMX or Sonic, and it's got a similar percentage against Mortal Kombat as it did last time. These first two matches are definitely the best reads we're gonna get on it, though, so I guess it'll be left up to debate. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

looked fine against MMX as well, maybe people weren't ready to accept

FFVI didn't look bad against MMX or Sonic It's doing worse against Sonic 2 than SMW, which it would have beaten comfortably in 2004. Maybe something weird just happened in LttP/FFVI. The picture for Link was pretty bad, but FFVI had Amano art IIRC (which *should* be a reason for it to overperform, but people have bad taste) too so who knows. E3 had already happened by that point, but maybe it was a slow build for Zelda hype that year. --- FastFalcon owned me in the Guru Contest! |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/14/2009 2:32:34 PM | message detail |
That's
a pretty decent boost, a bit more than I'd be willing to attribute to
random variation. It might be a combination of FFVI's bad picture and
MMX overlapping a bit more with Nintendo that Sonic does. --- Yoblazer: http://i42.tinypic.com/avk9ie.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Yesmar | Posted 5/14/2009 2:32:53 PM | message detail |
Even taking into account SMW/Sonic 2 SFF, this still only puts FFVI close to being on par with '04 SMW at best. --- FastFalcon owned me in the Guru Contest! |

Maybe something weird just happened in LttP/FFVI. I think so as well. It was always hard for me to buy that performance being legit (something about FFVI being worth 47%+ on Chrono Trigger just didn't sit right with me). Even if it is weaker relative to LttP this time around, though, I'm still confident the triple Nintendo split pulls it through to a win. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

KamikazePotato | Posted 5/14/2009 4:55:10 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
MM is exactly the wrong kind of game to take advantage of the RBY/GS
overlap. We already saw how MM3 took advantage of overlap with another
Ninty game in the poll. ...Which just means that SC's chances are 3% while MM's chances are 1%. I still think neither have a shot at advancing. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

with no chance seems about right, especially since I think GSC is in

What
do you define as a World of Hurt? I think RBY doubles GSC (which is
enough to beat MM by a very comfortable margin), but I doubt it enters
70-30 territory. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
