You don't think MM can break 80% on Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, Age of Empires II, or Journey?


On Mario Kart, no. The others, it might be able to, but the jump from 80% to 85% is pretty huge, so it wouldn't mean Majora is still in the strength range of Mario 3.

Just to demonstrate the strength gap just from 75% to 80%, if CoD4 = VC, Super Metroid is projected to beat Majora's Mask with 58.14%

And if Majora were to get 80% exactly on Journey, it would still only be projected to get 39.83% on FFVII.

I'm putting SFF into factor here too. Since you have to when comparing every Nintendo vs Nintendo.

Not sure MM would win the SFF battle against any of the marios. IT would against newer zelda and mario games though .

If Mario 64 could barely get 80% on Mario Kart, I don't think Majora would.

MM's not close to Mario 64 in terms of strength, so that would have to be one heckuva Zelda SFF advantage on Majora's part.

Mind you, I'd love to see MM as strong as people are thinking (best game we've ever had win a contest, by far), but it really ain't.

Also, for the record, only 17 of the 128 games in GOTD were projected to be under 20% against Majora's Mask.

Compare that to 31/64 being projected to be under 20% against FFVII in the original Games Contest. Nearly half the field!

Majora isn't on the level of the biggest games and never has been.

Majora robbed us of the best game ever winning a contest (FFX, not Brawl)!
---
http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif
Hey, I'd have been stoked about FFX winning too, but it's not quite on MM's level. Plus, I have my doubts if it would have mustered the same bandwagon to beat Brawl, and Brawl winning would have been the Worst Result Ever so chalk it up as a wash imo

FFX would've beaten Brawl with its own natural strength, darn it! You can't convince me otherwise!

What about the fact that it couldn't beat MM on its own natural strength and MM looked weaker than Brawl in the finals

Welcome to the League of Stickies.

It was beating Majora on its own natural strength!

but then people were like 'no wait we need to rally that plucky underdog Zelda it's our only chance of beating the monster that is Brawl' and that was the end of it

this is why we can't have nice things

MM or FFX or a bunch of other games would have been worthy GOTD winners(my personal fav is Prime)

Imagine if Brawl had won GOTD...and didn't even get NOMINATED for this contest...I mean how f***ing stupid would that be? IT would look embarrassing for the GOTD contest.
11/16/2015 2:08:18 PM#216
I would've been fine with Brawl winning the contest, but I also don't think it's the scourge of the earth or anything. I was happy when it beat Melee, in fact!

I agree, FFXII is much better.
The story in both X and X-2 are both a wash at best. X-2 at least has one of the best turn-based combat systems ever; maybe even second to Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne.

Going by your prior analysis if Melee had beaten Brawl, MM wouldn't have been rallied past FFX

you're the reason why we can't have nice things

true it would've been even more satisfying if FFX had beaten Melee in the final instead of Brawl

but how could I have predicted Board 8 would rally around Majora's Mask of all things

Melee would have won the tournament. I'm convinced of that.

I honestly think FFX would have had a better chance against Brawl.

vc over cod4 seems like hindsight to me.

I'm not even disagreeing. people just weren't calling for 80% beforehand. SM will be the underdog against Zelda unless it just obliterates Galaxy.

COD4 was one of the most Respected games in the late 2000's. It was toe toe with the galaxies back then.

Now it's just Turbo fodder.

Well either way Brawl didn't win. Thats what matters. IT would be pathetic to have a GOTD winning game not even be in this contest. That would completely devalue it's achievements.
Yea I'm pretty certain Majora beats Super Metroid.

It won't really matter this round. Next round is when it could be interesting.

Morrowind did quite a bit better against Prime than the X-Stats predicted, but whether it was Skyrim being in the same poll or some other reason, there's no way to tell.

Didn't remember VC got a Steam-port, that counters MM3D to some small degree. I'm still backing LoZ:MM since the first round match-ups don't really tell us much and it's still about where it's expected anyway, but I would have liked to have seen LoZ:MM exceed its projected stat.

FF4/FF12, who ya got? The LoZ-games face off against them next round.

I think it'd be pretty close either way.

But if you're a believer in "System SFF," LttP might disproportionately beat down FFIV next round anyway.
