Hmm, so OoT really impressing here or is this the cause of SFF melee or most likely a mixture of both?

FFX is currently 60-40ing Melee, so it almost assuredly is far weaker than FFVIII or MGS in this state.

So between FFX and Pokemon RBY, who's got the superior ASV?

The fact that FFX is going further than SM64 is a travesty.

Melee easily. Melee is probably the second or third strongest Nintendo game, just it gets ****ed over while fighting the king of console SFF.

Eh, if Pokemon can hold FFX to reasonably sized gains the next few updates, it might be able to try something with the ASV. But if it really is getting bandwagoned right now, and this is the best it can do, it's done.

OoT could beat FF7s % and still not look as impressive. ff7 had stronger competition, and only one same company game.
LeonhartFour | Posted 6/3/2009 9:08:55 PM | message detail
This match proves nothing other than that RBY resists SFF better than Melee does against OoT. Says nothing about how a one-on-one match would go. This is like saying Kirby beats Sephiroth after seeing what Cloud did to him.

Looks like FFX coasts to the finals. Guess we'll have two boring semifinals and hopefully an exciting final.

Stars of the contest - Pokemon RBY, Super Mario World, Super Mario 64. Good shows all around.

Yea, you cant judge Melee on this match. Just as an example, I ****ing love Melee and there aren't many games I'd vote over it in this contest.

But OoT is one of them. Im sure lots of Nintendo fans were torn on this match and chose OoT.

OOT of all things won the board vote? Guess Zelda fans got scared after the last 2 matches.

Well, this means RBY isn't being bandwagoned at least, and it's definitely got a much stronger day vote than FFX. But first it's got to survive the night, which will be very difficult.

FFX's morning vote is actually better than its night vote, usually. Kinda like a mini-FFVII. The ASV is where it gets hurt.

The users at this board probably only accounts for about 200 votes at most. There's still like another 1300 that came from users that either don't care about this board or have never stepped foot in here. Those would be the casuals and they probably favored OoT or FFX more than the users at this board, which were probably for Pokemon.

So much for Melee's ability to resist SFF.

I think Brawl should fare better against Ocarina due to its rabid fanbase. But when Brawl was released, Melee became nothing more than a nostalgic Nintendo game. So when going up against the king of nostalgic Nintendo games here, it is not going fare well.

12 people fell off the Top 50 today. Ludwig_Von_3, VolantPieMan, Naruto_kun84, octoblinky, Somegamer, Ludwig_Von_7, Piazza31, lololesecond, kingcraz1, Ero_senin, theawesomestevr and lolo262626 did not have FF7 > LoZ:aLttP as yesterday's winners.

1 person scored half points and lived. Mac_Arrowny also did not have FF7 > LoZ:aLttP as yesterday's winners. Since most people near the top scored full points and the match was worth a lot of points, everybody outside the Top 7 who scored half points or less fell off the Top 50.

FFX should be up more than 2000 before the afterschool vote. I have no worries about RBY here.

then again, I thought LTTP had it in the bag thanks to Mario 64's pathetic night vote and look how that turned out!

PegasusLover123 | Posted 6/3/2009 9:18:30 PM | message detail
Indeed, it seem that it needed a combined attack in order to take it down.

So even if RBY loses here, its a respectable loss as it was stronger than most expected.

A 2000 vote lead should be safe for FFX. LTTP and Mario 3 were only up by a little over 1000.

Which doesn't itself mean that it will get pounded this badly by SFF. RBY's presence here is making it much easier for Melee to die.
