And while Goldeneye is an N64 game, it could not be any more different that SM64.

Except we have ample evidence Goldeneye will get SFFd. Hard.

I'm going to say.....LTTP can win if it's above 46% on FFVI at 6 AM.

There's 2 outcomes of that match:

1. Goldeneye gets SFF'd into the ground, Mario wins comfortably over CT
2. Goldeneye stands up a bit, Mario still wins comfortably over CT

I think people are overrating this idea of FF7/CT not overlapping.

N64 is different from Wii and GC. N64 classics were played by every single person who owned an N64. There will be tonnes of SFF between every N64 game.

So if you guys are certain that LTTP is gonna strangle LA for its vote, then who is the favorite for 2nd, FF6 or Super Metroid?

Looking at the upcoming match, some may wonder if this match will pull a similar stunt like SMB3 and SMW did.

Will the 2 Zeldas split their power evenly, or will one attempt to subdue the other for its votes?


Um... I would expect something more like Mario 64/Yoshi's Island. SMB3 and SMW are splitting the way they are because they were of equal strength in the first place. Whereas Link's Awakening is many times weaker than Link to the Past is.

FF6 and Super Metroid's odd pretty much depends on how the 2 zeldas affect each other. If they split evenly like Mario did, there's no chance on Metroid or FF6 advancing.

FF6 already beat Link's Awakening last round.

It can only manage 55% on LttP's pathetic little brother. The only way it's going to rank above LttP is if OoT was in that poll.

That said, it's certainly not pathetic enough to lose to Metroid

Man freaking typos

Here is an idea. Maybe the SFF in that match was not that strong, and Goldeneye was just that weak.

In other words, maybe in 2004, SM64 was worth 35-40% on on OoT indirectly, while Goldeneye was worth only around 30%.

What I am saying is that Goldeneye/OoT SFF is not that big, and neither is Goldeneye/SM64 SFF. But OoT/SM64 SFF is huge.

And if you believe that, you must believe that FFVII has fallen off the edge of the Grand Canyon to do as poorly as it did against Goldeneye.

why would there be less SFF in SM64/GE? Both games were played by the exact same people, and SM64 is loved much more so. Very similar to OOT/SM64.

So basically it looks like the first two or three hours and the last two or three hours are what wins this match for Mario 3. Everything else was pretty much 50/50.

I'm not so sure that's true. It doesn't help that Mario 64 got SFF'd harder than GE did.

FFVI >>> FFIV

Well, that also means that neither Mario Kart nor SMRPG have hurt Goldeneye that much. Though I do agree that FF7 has fallen a huge amount.

Just because something happens in one Nintendo match doesn't mean it applies to all Nintendo.

Think of the size of the Mario fanbase, then compare with the size of the Zelda fanbase. Mario is probably for all intents and purposes virtually immune to LFF because everyone and their grandmother has played his games. You can't say the same about Zelda, no matter how popular it is on this site.

Mario Kart and SMRPG didn't hurt GE much? Did they hurt each other much, then? Because SMRPG didn't do that much worse worse against GE in round 2 than in round 1, and MK64, a clearly weaker game than GE, got 30% on FFVII in round 1 with SF64 in the poll.

If Link to the Past loses this, it does not deserve to hold the title of strongest SNES game over SMW. In other words, it is not going to lose. FF6 has about a 3% chance here.

FF6 will win, or come very close to it.

For starters, there's a very clear difference between FF6 and FF4, namely that FF6 has actual fans instead of people who will just vote for Final Fantasy.

Secondly, FF6 is within 5% of LttP to begin with, adding a Zelda and Super Metroid to the mix can't possibly hurt that.

Using today's match as justification for FF6 not winning tomorrow is silly.

Prediction: An hour in, FFVI is winning and rising, and people overreact and start talking about throwing LTTP out of the top 10. Then, when it comes back with the ASV, people start talking about FFVI being a total failure and throwing it out of the top 20.
