I'm actually confused about all these "RBY is a buggy mess" posts I keep seing on the board too. I mean, a lot of games were back then if it is, and RBY was (and still is) perfectly playable.

I kind of feel we're coming full circle and the whole "anti-genwunners" are just as annoying as the "genwunners".

Also any chance Zelda underperforms because it's two Zelda games in the same poll?

Do we think FFVI and FFVII being in the same poll had an effect on them?

Based on that picture Nanis posted it seems like a bunch of complaints that only really matter competitively

We may be lame but at least we aren't FF8 fans.

Well, that exact scenario happened last time ALttP and MM were up. Do you think it happened then?

LttP underwhelmed me a little bit. MM did almost exactly as expected on FFXII based on GOTD though, so who knows.

I don't know if two games in the poll has an effect for sure but I definitely know that if Super Metroid wins Zelda fans will be screaming it does and is also the most important effect ever

RBY has a lot of bugs but most of them don't really get in the way of gameplay. Things like Focus Energy lowing your critical hit rate or that several tiles of grass in the Viridian Forest won't trigger battles don't really prevent you from collecting 8 badges, beating the league and completing your Pokedex.

if LttP underperforms today we'll all blame it on the fact that Bacondorf is in the pic

If Super Metroid vs Majora's Mask is close, Dark Souls will be harmed by the extra Nintendo fans being rallied to come vote in the poll since they will vote for LttP.

Oh hey, we might be able to get a decent read on MGS4 vs. MGSV based on how well LttP does, maybe?

do we all think LttP beats Melee?

It took two contests for Magus to be exposed, so FFIX will be fine next time. It'll just get SFF'd to oblivion by FFVII in the second round next time and continue to obscure its true value!

And which game is stepping up to beat OoT in the semifinals? Last I checked, everyone in Division 7 and 8 was trying to throw their matches so they didn't have to face OoT.

SBAllen will reveal some secret rules saying that the semifinals opponents will be switched!

CT beats OOT, and Undertale/RBY is left to face an opponent it doesn't need to rally to beat, causing the ralliers to lose focus and forget to rally the next day in the final.
