How ridiculous is having Snake> Sephiroth, but Cloud>Snake in the same bracket? Almost as ridiculous as having Sora>Charizard right? --- Name: Flex FC: 4510 7199 0698 |

Nice to see MW2 redeem itself. How ridiculous is having Snake> Sephiroth, but Cloud>Snake in the same bracket? It's not that bad. Most people figure that Coud beats Sephiroth 55/45 before SFF so as long as you think Snake wins in a close match that pick isn't impossible. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Submit bracket here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=52670380 |

As
said before, 30% on Link is impressive, but if that doesn't convince
you, consider that Crono only did 8% better on Mario than Zack did, and
that was with Samus in the poll instead of MMX, which should hurt Mario
more. Crono was equal to Vincent last year, and probably around equal
to Squall. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

I
also think that Zack was bandwagoned last year and will get exposed in
this contest so maybe Zack being close to Sora isn't that ridiculous to
some. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Submit bracket here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=52670380 |

LeonhartFour | Posted 1/14/2010 4:44:30 PM | message detail |
Well,
I've seen virtually zero discussion on the match. I just kind of
assumed GlaDOS wins because the Mario & Luigi series is kind of
niche, but 650,000 copies in a month is pretty crazy. Fawful is just a
handheld character though. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

How
is it a game can sell 650,000 copies in a month and I hadn't even heard
of it before today? I mean, I don't think any Gamecube game ever sold
that many copies in a non-launch month......TWW sold 826,000 in its
first month by packaging OOT and OOT: Master Quest with it, and now a
DS game can just break 650,000 that easily? *Remembers Brain Age and Nintendogs*......okay. I'm not implying Bowser's Inside Story is similar to those games, by the way. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Another
match that hasn't gotten much discussion is Isaac/Layton. Sure Isaac
kept close with Lucario, but he was doubled by Altair who at the time
was around the fodderline and only got 63%. Layton didn't do well
either, but since 2008 he's gain two new releases and his original game
has sold quite a bit. Still think Isaac is the favourite though. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Submit bracket here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=52670380 |

Isaac/Layton I assume is a fodder match where the winner gets to lose to either a Tetris piece or a robot. (Who here has the robot? You guys rule.) --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

has nintendo just dropped the nintendogs franchise? Why, it was making them so much $$$. --- Shakes Fist! |

I
remember Isaac most for putting 25% on Samus back in 2003. Probably
should be paying more attention to 2008 results than that, but hey,
that's how much more memorable 1v1 matches are! --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

If fawful is equal to say Neku instead of an Agent J, where does that put him against GlaDOS?

Speaking of fodder matches, am I the only one here with Neku > Laharl? I just think Neku's newer and more KH-ish and not-Laharl enough to pull off the win. --- caps |

Laharl is like the eastern equivalent of guybrush, he probably has enough hardcore fans if Neku is just fodder. then again fodder fluctuation factor always gives us odd results. --- Shakes Fist! |
