It doesn't really surprise me that Zelda was in the lead early, but it surprises me people thought I would win. Also hardcore Melee Fans/Brawl haters stop whining please <_<.

Not Maybe, Definitely FFIX. There is no FFXII of the Zelda series.

*cough* Zelda II *cough*


I am offended by this post.


Zelda II suffers from " i don't care about this game" syndrome not the " this game gave me cancer and i must flame it at every opportunity" syndrome.

WoG is a joke game that doesn't have any legit fans so that does not count. IT's why zelda has beaten FF over the recent years..it has a more unified fanbase.

Link always wins applies to LINK himself. So if brawl wins he still wins because he's a character in the damn game.

I used that as my reasoning for FF > LoZ in the series contest, LoZ just has more fans.

Seems like everyone is now assuming TP>FFX.

Thing is pre-contest I did think TP should be favored over FFX. I was higher on TP than most people here. However, I wouldn't say with any confidence at all right now that TP>FFX.

I think people have begun to underrate FFX, and the Smash games aren't as much in front of it as I thought pre-contest. The final %age could be similar to 2K4 (assuming FFX gets past RE4).

The thing about 2k4, is that it was definitely a Square dominated year. The fact that OoT has completely reversed FF7 definitely lends credence to Brawl/Melee being up on FFX.

I said Melee would still win this even if TP were to hold the match win. Obviously Melee would win if Brawl wins anyway. I still stand by this and don't see why it's so ridiculous. You shouldn't either if you had followed all those stupid Brawl/Melee polls.


Nah. Saying Melee would've won if TP beat Brawl is ridiculous :) Sorry man.

Zelda looked fantastic last contest. The only time it faltered was in an SFF situation.

This site has always had good taste.....relative to my taste.

2002 - Link - Excellent winner
2003 - Cloud - Excellent winner
Sp2004 - FFVII - Excellent
2004 - Link - Excellent
Sp2005 - Sephiroth - Okay
2005 - Link - Excellent
Series - LOZ - Excellent
2006 - Link - Excellent
2007 - L-Block - Okay
2008 - Link - Excellent
Sp2009 - Ocarina of Time - Excellent
2010 - Link - Excellent

If Brawl wins, that'll be the first winner that I genuinely dislike, and only one of 3 that I wouldn't rate excellent.

I feel like you may be confusing "the entire fanbase" with yourself.

I realize it's hard to tell the difference sometimes. The entire fanbase also has a shiny shirt, so sometimes people confuse them for you. It's ok.

"Entire fanbase"

Hell, let's look at this:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/wii/928518-super-smash-bros-brawl/mygames

A mere 3% score the game below a 7, and over 75% score the game a 9 or a 10. And this is probably the most rated game on the site, which is QUITE impressive given these scores. Sorry dude, but people love Brawl.

Really it's small group of people that are bitter that the game wasn't Melee + more characters. Sad thing is that we'd probably get a different small group that complain that the games were too similar.

Just look at this board Smash is one of our favourite series yet we're split on to which game we like better.

"There are three Smash Bros. games out now, but even if I ever had a chance at another one, I doubt we'll ever see one that's as geared toward hardcore gamers as Melee was. Melee fans who played deep into the game without any problems might have trouble understanding this, but Melee was just too difficult."

Actually yes. Brawl fans are not real Smash fans. Don't even pretend like you're as entrenched in that series as I am. I've made more than 1k off of it, which includes 2 Brawl tournaments. There is no comparison between those two games among the people that have played both, which you Euros wouldn't understand since the Gamecube never mattered over there. Melee didn't win the USA by accident.

Wow. That 8.5 user rating is pretty crappy compared to Melee's 9.5. I'm surprised it's that low.

Brawl winning would mean something other than Zelda and FF finnaly won again. ause except for L-Block's incredible victory we've never had that, and we need it. Also Zelda characters being in Brawl doesn't count as Zelda winning.

There's a reason LS didn't bother commenting on that part, since it craps all over his awful argument. Saying Brawl is more popular among Smash fans is laughable. It only won because of votes from outside North America.
