Okay, for Poll 3260, use this link to access the match updates: http://tinyurl.com/2ftk8de Google cached a page from your site where the results are sorted by Donkey Kong's percentage.

As
others have said, Shenmue will be a lot weaker than back then. The only
direction it's strength could possibly have gone is down, perhaps way
down. Twilight Princess will embarrass it, there is no way I can see it
avoiding the tripling. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3938 I showed this poll earlier, and its from this year. I don't buy the thought that Shenmue has completely dropped of. Its still about equal to Sonic Adventure 2, and thats about equal to Street Fighter 4. Theres a small chance it gets less than 20%, I guess... but if it does, I'd start worrying about TP upsetting Brawl/Melee! --- http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/fallout_new_vegas_conceptart_7XvFK.jpg |

If
you say so. Shenmue to me though seems like one of those games to age
very well and remembered as a classic, so I don't see it being
significantly weaker than 2004. No game I see demanding a sequel even
these days more than Shenmue 3. --- http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/fallout_new_vegas_conceptart_7XvFK.jpg |

the SNES Virtual Console poll. Yeah, this is clearly just reflective of the fact that the game is hard to track down.

Never played Shenmue, loved Twilight Princess. Voted for Shenmue because us obscure Dreamcast games have to stick together! So you're all voting for Skies of Arcadia, right? --- DFF |

The
ASV will definitely not be kind to Shenmue. I'll have to wait for the
next update, but I think TP could still reach 80% if it doesn't lose
too much ground with the next couple updates. --- A pro isn't someone who sacrifices himself for his job. That's just a fool. - Reno, FFVII http://i25.tinypic.com/2cp5chf.jpg |

From: KamikazePotato | #2402 Although Twilight Princess should beast over this division (with only Kingdom Hearts giving anything resembling a challenge), this isn't much of an indication of that IMO. This is mostly Shenmue just falling off a cliff since 2004, which is as most of us expected. Twilight Princess is very strong though, sometimes people seem to forget it's not really that far behind Brawl. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Haste_2 | Posted 11/2/2010 9:16:53 AM | message detail |
FFX
got 74% on Shenmue back in 2004. So, since a Shenmue drop would be
expected...Zelda:TP would disappoint if it did not at least approach
80%. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 11/2/2010 9:18:29 AM | message detail |
Yikes,
Zelda showing scary power here. I would have never gone with the KH
> Zelda upset in any case, but the way Sora and Rikku tanked in the
most recent 1v1 Character Battle really turned me away from the games.
Thankfully, there's absolutely nothing to upset either of them before
they face each other. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... some day I'll be... part of your world! |

Also,
assuming it didn't drop because of anti-Wii sentiment, it's not like
Zelda is miles behind FFX. Those two games could have a pretty damn
good match. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... some day I'll be... part of your world! |

Well, most people I know hate the Wii because there isn't much else EXCEPT Zelda and Smash. Doesn't stop people from liking Zelda and Smash.
