It's pretty sad that nothing is expected of Sonic anymore and nothing is exactly what is delivered. Of course that goes for both contest results and current game development.

Yeah, I don't think Mario World is going to do much more than stall out the rest of the match.

Yeah this is just going to be about even with a slight edge to Mario 3 for the rest of the ASV at least.

Those two were just a freak Mario 3 dropoff and a freakier World spike.

Nothing to see here.

wow this match is ****ing crazy... guess those SMW supporters got something to hang their hats on after all. Can't believe how pathetic FF4 looks here though, guess the idea that FF supporters will support any FF in the absence of anything else to drain it gets tossed out the window.

**** you 4-ways... you don't make any sense.

I find it very interesting since I've been arguing SMW > SMB3 since last round. If SMB3 turns out to lose this, I look like a genius! :D

I don't dislike Mario at all. SM64 is one of my favourite games ever and Luigi's one of my favourite characters. This match for some reason isn't reaching my interest despite liking all four of these games.

I'll buy anything from "under 1 minute" to "24 hours."

And World hasn't been this close in almost five hours. The ASV is clearly favoring it judging by percentages, but Mario 3 is hardly falling. World needs to keep this storm going.

Over the past hour SMB3 recieved 48.19% of the vote. Using the past hour SMW will take the lead at about 19:30. Using the past half hour the lead will be taken at about 19:45.

This is an odd question to ask, but what kind of lead does SMW need to hold, should it get one? I mean, you'd think the SNV goes back to SMB3 but... this match is so confusing. =(

SNV would go to SMW if anything. SMW held up better at night.

World's ASV is sick. Managing to do this while 3 stays relatively steady is damn impressive.

Also, does anyone here still have any realistic hope for Chrono Trigger? I'd wager Mario 64 ends up closer to FFVII by the match's end. Possibly much, much closer.

This whole format BEGS for that kind of thinking. There's plenty of reason to believe Mario 64 can do to Goldeneye what Goldeneye did to Mario Kart. Plus, Nintendo fans are proving to be quite good at falling in line when the need arises, and it'll arise when they notice Mario 64 leading/fighting FFVII early. Young Republicans indeed!

I don't have any faith in Chrono Trigger advancing out of that match after having seen the past few matches, but I don't know about this Mario 64 ends up closer to FFVII than CT stuff.

That said, if it does, Ocarina of Time is going to have fun with FFVII, although at this point I think everyone kinda knows how that's going to go, anyway.

This is shaping up to be similar to Tales of Symphonia/God of War, except ToS didn't start moving until like...6 and still ended up with a 200 vote lead.

Except I'd expect GoldenEye to hold up FAR better than Mario Kart. Remember who got hit harder by Ocarina of Time.

Hint: Not GoldenEye.
