So
did the Mario fanbase die of heart attacks from NSMBWii and SMG2 and
are unable to vote, or are people really franchise voting here? --- The Gamer In Me http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=158 |

Well,
I'm theorizing that the ASV is more skewed toward younger voters -
younger voters who are not as drawn to these old Mario games and who
grew up in a time where Zelda was the dominant Nintendo series. So yes,
basically franchise voting, because there's no way younger kids are
more familiar with the original LoZ than they are with these Marios;
they're just more apathetic toward all older games. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |

I just gotta say this. Zelda suddenly got a boost out of nowhere yet there was no mention of Zelda at E3. Where did this mysterious boost come from? --- "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh." -Magus |

I
leave for THIRTY MINUTES, and Zelda starts tearing into SMB3?
Unbelievable. Looks like it's true: if your fans desert you, you're
gonna crumble. :p |

this could effect the championship, if the 2 marios go through its FFVII,Oot,Lttp, and Smash/FFX if zelda wins here then 2 zeldas lose to mario and FFVII next round setting up FFVII,Mario world,Oot,FFX/smash the first option looks like walk in park for FFVII the second could be tougher --- KOTOR most game ever! |

But SMB3 had over a 1000 vote lead from Zelda. How is that calling it early? Now Crono/Vincent 2007, there's a match which was called early. --- The Gamer In Me http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=158 |

SMB3
needs another spike, pronto. An extra thirty votes should be enough to
keep it safe for a while if it keeps stalling like this afterwards. |

It
was called early because people were wrong and greatly underestimated
Zelda's day vote or overestimated SMB3's day vote. Mario's probably
still a slight favorite here though thanks to Mario's history with
close matches. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |
