doesn't look like much overlap to me! Mario World and Mario 3 are just so well-known and well-played that it's a different situation to normal same series matches, I think.

I'm actually kinda surprised Sonic is doing as well as it is.

I figured Mario 3 would be 4% higher and Mario World 4% lower, but this isn't too terribly weird. And that may well happen before the end of the match, the board thought Mario World needed it more.

You need to spend your time thinking up reasons that this makes Chrono Trigger's chances look better.

Mario 3 looks good. Mario World has a better board vote and it's got brackets here.

I wonder if we can get some Zelda 1 > Mario World next round. that's three NES titles and Mario World.

RPGuy96 | Posted 5/25/2009 9:06:46 PM | message detail
Isn't this very match pretty good evidence against Mario 3/Mario World splitting enough for Zelda to take advantage of it?

I mean, the thought that FFIV could get 45% on Mario World seemed pretty silly after last round, but it's under 40% presently. That's not exactly taking advantage of LFF.

yeah, I thought about this too. but I think when there's *three* Mario options and a Zelda one, it's tough to ignore that. I'll back Zelda next round.

I think the best one was Yoshi > Dante. None of us had any reason to think Yoshi had a chance besides that it felt right.

Looks like Mario World merely had a false start in the first round, here its going toe to toe with SMB3.

Well Albion, looks like that triple Mario situation next round is gonna happen after all. Then well see which of those 3 mario games is really the best.
