Mario
Kart 64 would absolutely never beat Smash 64 1 on 1. You're so bad at
this. I mean I knew this tenfold already, but you always pop up during
contest season to remind everyone further. It's true entertainment. Mario Kart 64 losing to SSB is a GameFAQs thing so you can't really pound into him. --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |

still appreciate the irony of their attempts to get English Mother 3
leading them to the one action that would guarantee it never be
released legitimately overseas. --- I like how each new topic you make reveals such varied facets of your idiocy. - foolmo Now this is entertainment! |

Your nominated games must have been first released in North America between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2009. Games not released in North America but first released during the same period are also eligible. It would do really badly, but there's no reason Mother 3 would be disallowed. --- For your health.

not sure why anyone would want to nominate a game that never even made
it to America, unless you're purposefully trying to guarantee it ranks
128th in the x-stats. We remember Lucas, right? Also, yoblazer beat me to the Lance Vance burn! darn you --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

Mario
Kart 64 would absolutely never beat Smash 64 1 on 1. You're so bad at
this. I mean I knew this tenfold already, but you always pop up during
contest season to remind everyone further. It's true entertainment. MK64 was the multiplayer game for the N64 right next to Goldeneye.

SSBM was the time when SSB actually became one of Nintendo's top franchises. http://vgsales.wikia.com/wiki/Super_Smash_Bros. http://vgsales.wikia.com/wiki/Mario_Kart The only way SSB is winning on this site is if people started gaming on the Gamecube and vote for SSB off of the name alone. --- Calling Pokemon RBY a top 10 game was the most insane contest jibba-jabba ever Woe unto he who sig bets with the near-invincible Lord High creativename |

From: LeonhartFour | #355 Has he even been in a reliable 1 on 1 match since 2005 to test this? This past winter was all SFF and a "wtf" against Charizard. For all we know he went back to pre-2005 levels but 4ways and his big SFF path hid this. And even if you want to use 4ways, I could have sworn he had the same problem with Nintendo SFF in all his matches in 2008 or something. I don't feel like looking it up, but wasn't that the year MMX and Zack almost beat him? --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.· http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v198/Burgess/1279169521588.png |

I've

on this board), and there's no way I'm picking it to beat SSB. It's
probably not an uber-blowout, but I don't see MK64 winning that one. --- "Spoil it for me. I'm never going to play that game so I want to know if he's going to be another Auron or another Sin." - Soul about PW/Jecht |

I
would take Mario Kart 64 over SSB 64. Not that I have doubts about SSB,
but MK64 looked damn good in the first round *while* being leeched. It
only looked disappointing in R2 due to Fourth Place Factor. I would
take it to be around 45% or better on Goldeneye indirectly. Not sure that I could say the same about SSB. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka Dr. Football beat me, Yesmar in the 2010 Guru Contest! |

So
like I said, it's only getting by on franchise votes. Based on normal
popularity (as in if this contest happened before the Gamecube was
announced), MK64 would kill it. SSB was popular, but it's not up to
MK64's popularity on the N64. Again on any normal site you'd likely be right, but even with a reduced popularity compare to Melee and Brawl both SSBM/SSBB are the favourites at being the 3rd most favoured game on this site.

I
think MK64 vs. SSB is a very debatable match, and cocksure statements
in either direction are baseless. MK64 got 62% on Star Fox 64, which I
thought was a really good performance, but then it turned around and
got nearly doubled by Goldeneye. The jury's still out. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
