Just twelve votes. Watch SMB3 win that back and get a little more in the next update.

Big whoop. It took off 8 votes. This is clearly Zelda's last stand. Noticed how Zelda's gradually declining in vote cuts?

yes. but really, this contest has been devoid of any significant comebacks, and we've finally had one and its exciting, don't ruin it. please.

How many comebacks did you contribute to or go against in the past year or so? I distinctly remember you trying to rally for WCC over an SFF'd Mega Man just for the hell of it, and there are probably more without going into WoW-territory.

Sorry Alby, you don't get to tell people when they can rally/cheat after your history.

mario 3 did do better at the end of the match last round. why does it have to be cheating?

Uh, because it is Mario, the most chronic cheater in GameFAQs history. If it is a close match, and he wins, he cheated.

I wouldn't say Zelda is doing its last stand. The last time someone said something like that, it took 30 votes off the next update. Better to say SMB3 is giving it the fight of its life instead.

I love how both games are literally fighting at Mario World's expense. I'd like to think Mario 3 has the advantage given it's last two hours against Mario World, but Zelda has an absolutely ridiculous momentum going.

Funny seeing as this is coming from a fan of one of the biggest cheaters in GameFAQs contest history...And I'd say Chrono Trigger has a longer rapsheet for cheating *coughFroghack*.

though my love for mario 3 and zelda 1 is near equal anyway, so i can't really root for either over the other here

CT and MGS are far worse than Mario ever was. Mario's only legitimate cheating was a 500 vote spike against Cloud in 2002. In 2003 against Crono, he legitimately lost a 24 hour match. CJayC is the one responsible for that 24 hour, 30 minute comeback debacle.

UltimaterializerX | Posted 6/2/2009 6:44:37 PM | message detail
I'm really torn. Mario 3 is the only game here I'd have on a top 50 list, but I love the other three games pretty much equally. I'm confused why Zelda 1 gets so much hate (not just from this board, but from everyone I see on any site), but stays strong.

As for how this finishes, Mario 3 and Zelda 1 are fighting at Mario World's expense. Mario 3 beat Mario World handily in the last few hours, so Zelda maybe wants Mario World doing better here? I dunno.

Well, I'm surprised that everybody's predictions about the three-way NES split hurting Mario 3 enough to lose to Mario World came true, not to mention that Mario 1 is indeed falling flat on its face here. Ah well.

Now this match features four of the undoubted best games of all time. The one thing I know is that Final Fantasy VII wins, and...call me crazy, but I'm projecting it for 40% again here. After all, Chrono Trigger > Final Fantasy VI, and Zelda 3 probably hurts Super Mario 64 as much as GoldenEye did. So lets look at everybody else.

Final Fantasy VI - Failure last round. It may have advanced, but I still don't think it's as strong as Chrono Trigger or Metal Gear Solid. Not to mention that it looked much worse than its 2004 self against Zelda 3. It's coming in last; book it.

Super Mario 64 - Ultimately, its surprising defeat of Chrono Trigger was due to Chrono Trigger's weakness and not out of Mario 64's own strength. Given the fellow Nintendo game that it's facing, I think it's safe to say that its road here is at an end.

Zelda: A Link to the Past - It's been looking good all contest and there's no reason to back away now. It's goin' to the finals, woot.

Prediction: Final Fantasy VII > Zelda: A Link to the Past
Zelda: A Link to the Past - 25%, Final Fantasy VI - 15%, Final Fantasy VII - 40%, Super Mario 64 - 20%
Bracket: Final Fantasy VII > Zelda: A Link to the Past (woot)
Favorites: Zelda: A Link to the Past > Super Mario 64
Favorites Bracket: Chrono Trigger > Zelda: A Link to the Past
