WWF No Mercy was basically an unknown here, since there were no polls for this game prior to this match.

It's a 5th tier Nintendo 64 game (I guess you could argue it being 4th tier)

Though didn't expect it to be this bad.

I'm going to be completely honest, I never "got" the debate around this match, and half wondered if it was an elaborate joke by the No Mercy fans to get me to worry about the result. >_>

I mean, sure, it probably helped that I believed FE9 would be the strongest FE game, but even if it wasn't, No Mercy did not strike me as the kind of game that would have strong support on this site.

I'm not sure if I would have predicted 70-30 (if that even holds). I might have when I first saw the bracket, since I dismissed this match immediately, but after all the hype, I would have put PoR's limit at like 60%. >_>

Just watch, No Mercy is going to be a steaming pile of feces by the time this contest is over. I voted for it but solely out of next to zero care for the Fire Emblem series.

PoR vs. D/P, who ya got?


...I'm totally okay with getting on the PoR bandwagon now!

Seriously though, the only reason I don't immediately say "D/P/P" is because I'd like to say I think PoR is stronger than Fusion, which may not be the case. PoR's actual performance here isn't changing my mind, I'd expect D/P/P to do this here too.

Well, DPP looks to be about as strong as Symphonia and/or Galaxy. So PoR probably doesn't come close.

yes that is why i put the 90% irrelevant part

the 10% relevant part is that VC is closer to fire emblem in terms of mainstream than disgaea

Makes sense... kind of.

Disgaea never seemed huge to me on this site, even compared to more niche stuff. I'd take VC to curbstomp TWEWY for example.

Disgaea's less cult then VC. And has a very similar fanbase as fire emblem does.

I don't see where you're going with this.

but it's closer to Disgaea in terms of gameplay

so like, more crossover appeal or something

Regardless, Disgaea's got that match with no problem. I'm not even a little worried there.
