In October 2011 Index reported that Catherine was already over 500k worldwide, with more than 200k coming from America.

But lol its obscure.

Established in that more people on this site have played a Farcry game than Catherine or TWEWY combined.

As far as a I can tell, TWEWY has the highest play rate.

Catherine does about as well as Far Cry 2 and TWEWY crushes the other two combined.

Pokemon VGC2013 BC Regional - 16th place
Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place

>7 year old JRPG
>8 tough competition like Halo and Borderlands 2

GotY polls need more perspective than this, but that's still not enough to say "established series" considering the other 4/5 polls where it's absolute trash. It still contrasts heavily with what you originally claimed.

I feel confident that Neku will finish 3rd. As for the other two...

More people have played FF12 than Okami and FF's by far the second most established series ever. Didn't stop Balthier from getting embarrassed by Ammy though.

Tharja's losing her steam. I'm really, really hoping this doesn't turn into a lead change in the middle of the night.

PSN - Aevio
"I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa

Errr not really, just a lot of stalling. It's been between 390-420 lead for a while now.
---

Yeah, Tharja's bleeding percentage like crazy, but the lead hasn't really gone anywhere for a while.
---
"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

Huh, 3333 votes, 33.33%. >_>

And both leads are at 407.

did it for you:
89 (12, 15, 62)
63 (5, 21, 37)
98 (25, 26, 47)
43 (5, 13, 25)

and 15 votes currently. that's how irrelevant Japan is.

Well, I wanted to figure out the number of votes from Japan for a poll that has occurred in the past. I used this year's age poll to figure out the number of votes from Japan, because the age poll had ridiculous vote totals for a non-contest poll. Also, because this contest will probably average over 50000 votes in the 24-hour matches.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5097

Number of votes from certain countries in the age poll:

Canada - Somewhere around 5400 votes (too time consuming to calculate this)
United Kingdom - Between 3800 and 4200 votes (too time consuming to calculate this)
Australia - 1275
Netherlands - 830
Brazil - 703
Mexico - 617
Sweden - 604
Finland - 470
Germany - 458
Norway - 376
Philippines - 362
Italy - 335
Denmark - 316
France - 308
Portugal - 298
Spain - 276
New Zealand - 242
Poland - 230
Belgium - 230
Indonesia - 227
Malaysia - 217
Russia - 217
Ireland - 171
Japan - 146
India - 63
China - 54
South Korea - 53

Tharja/Tina is closer than Tina/Jules 0_0

And Tina is gaining. Last update was -388, now it's -380.

Harmony is peace. Peace is unity. Unity is harmony. I tell this to the King Nook. He ask me to leave.

It looks like I'm getting +0 in the Expert Challenge as it stands now. It could be worse, but I'll have to make up for lost ground later in the contest.
---

A Tina comeback would be nice. At least it'd save me 4 points in the expert challenge.
---
SuperNiceDog is also a SuperSmartDog.

She's been gaining but it hasn't been significant. Don't get your hopes up.
---
Something something something
^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig

Tiny Tina is practically tied with Tharja in the U.S. I assume she takes the lead there soon.
---
[NO BARKLEY NO PEACE]

Tina finally starting to make some big cuts on this lead.
---
"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

Huh, Tharja actually came in third that hour.
---
"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

Well, I didn't want those points in the Extra Challenge today.

Guess I'm going to have to make a pick on Draven's match. Ugh.

Lead under 300 now.
---
"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

And depending on what Juliet does, this could end up being one of those (presumably) rare matches where every character finishes over 30%.
---
"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

There is a Tiny Tina rally on Reddit:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Borderlands2/comments/1i2gzy/vote_for_tiny_tina_today/

The topic was started at 3:57 AM, right before the hour where Tiny Tina easily ripped into the lead.

I guess if Tina places first, I can at least get points for Tharja placing 2nd. Goooooo Tina.

Kinda surprised Tharja isn't winning the night. I figured she'd destroy in Japan and Europe which would be enough to walk away with it.
---
No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!

Tharja is starting to win updates!

Are the kiddies waking up and siding with Tharja?
---
Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner

It's not just Japan, but Tharja is also winning in places like Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia, which make up most of Asia's total votes.

Japan doesn't matter in this. Europe is starting to wake up now. I think the European vote is kicking in.

Yeah, i think Tina wins.

I live in Japan and I go here. ( if you think I'm lying I give a mod permission to reveal where I'm posting from)

I am also secretly from Japan.

"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

Yeah I guess it'd be strange for the Japanese to go to a website that actually has reasonably decent visual design, on second thought.

Yeah, I went there.
---

The first good match of the contest and the first that I have wrong!Anyway nice.But we needed 3 new characters to have something like that?

GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~

Go Tharja! Save my bracket!

It's possible that you are not a native born citizen of Japan, as I have possible evidence that a good number of votes from Japan are coming from people who were not originally born in Japan. These 2 polls have some weird results from Japan:

Man if Tharja actually chokes this away I riot

Really think the morning vote has to go to her though. I mean she's the heart and soul of Nintendo, right?

A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice.

Over the last hour Tina's cut is 21 votes.

I don't think Tharja will choke(it'll be close). I hope it doesn't happen >_>

Lead back over 300. Come on Tharja.
---
Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner

I would love Tina managing the comeback, even though I have Tharja winning. Everyone instantly dismissed Tina as an obvious last in this match, so her actually winning would completely screw over all brackets and Expert challengers.

So when does this end anyways?

6 hours. We just hit the halfway point.
---
XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism.

I think a lot of expert people probably have Tina in second, actually. There were pretty good arguments for taking her over Juliet, really.
---
No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!

This match is currently behind the Link match by nearly 600 votes at this point in time. So much for this match having the worst vote totals out of the night matches in this contest. I'm sure we'll have matches that get under 25000 votes.

Shouldn't it be obvious that this site isn't intended for Japanese people? If I'm not mistaken, this site doesn't have a Japanese counterpart, correct?
