I've also been surprised how many Undertale fans I've seen describing RBY as a "buggy mess" and "inferior to the later games"


They are right
But it still deserves beating Undertale
It's like claiming that FFVII has lego people and it's not a good game because of it

I mean yeah it has a lot of bugs and later games improved on everything mechanically, but the never quite captured the same magic as gens 1 and 2 in my opinion. The bugs at the very least didn't impact my enjoyment of the game at all (in fact, Missingno made the games more enjoyable!)

I treat Pokemon almost like I treat Dynasty Warriors. Nothing will ever top Dynasty Warriors 5, ever. It was the pinnacle of the series. But I'll also never play Dynasty Warriors 5 again because good lord, PS2 graphics and combat. Give me the newest version please.

Pokemon is only different because Pokemon RBY still has considerable value through randomization in an emulator.

I just checked the results. This is what I have to say:
1st match=I want Undertale to win but I don't think it can. I know that USA is sleeping now but still.
2nd match=At least Skyrim is the strongest western game

And damn you Melee! My most hated game this contest.

Just arrived and haven't read all the stats topics I missed but has the spillover had any clear effect on Skyrim/SM64? Is either being favored there as far as we can tell?

xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?
Undertale had 10.6k votes at this point against SMW. Today it has 13.5K. RBY has 17.7K, which is well ahead of SMW's 13.6K.

Looking at the charts it doesn't seem like it, unless it had an impact right from the start. SM64 was at 65% through the first hour and has steadily fallen since then.

Pokemon is dealing with this rally like a king so far. To see it directly improving against a stronger Undertale is incredible.

Undertale cut like a 1000 votes from SMW before the dead hours. It wasn't even remotely close to that here.

Am I the only one who thinks Mario/Skyrim looks legit? I can't imagine the percentages being drastically different under "normal" circumstances anyway.

Mario 64 being worth 60%+ on Metroid Prime makes me kind of sick. Metroid Prime is the better game. Though I would have probably voted for Mario this contest just because I got much more into it last year when I revisited them both.

Pokemon is being rallied too and is much stronger than SMW

But yes, it's doing well. The problem is I don't think there's much that can be done about Undertale when it picks up steam. Pokemon is by far the more popular game but pulling in its fanbase and harnessing them for a poll like this is just so much harder

That's why "underdog games" like Undertale are anything but that in this setting. With a fanbase that's tight-knit enough, it becomes incredibly easy to harness a large group of people.

Also, we're 1 hour and 10 minutes-ish away from the update where SMW's lead peaked, at 3150.

Hopefully Pokemon can push the lead to something in the 5000 ballpark by that time.

Who knows, maybe if it can SFF enough of the rally (and maybe reach the greater Tumblr community) , it can win.
Yeah it should be just short of 5000. I hope it's enough, but I doubt it unless Pokemon can kick into high gear on the counterrally front.

People are talking so much about the lead RBY needs to have before the rally gets brutal. That's not what matters. It matters close to nothing avidly unless RBY could build a 15000 lead, Undertale will easily overcome the lead. What matters is RBY's ability to withstand the Undertale rallies and counterrally.

A fully rallied Melee will stomp Undertale. That little overrated indie game wont know what hit it. A double warlock punch to be exact.

Melee winning would be objectively (since this word doesn't seem to mean anything anymore) the worst winner possible.
OoT would be better, FFVII would be better, Undertale would be better.
Hell, Bethesda putting an official link and Skyrim winning by 1m vote would be better.

Higher vote totals favor Pokemon. I still believe in a vote ceiling.

I'm also positive this match decides the contest. Does anyone really think Ocarina could handle this?

I said it before, the only way for Pokemon to win is if the Undertale rally backfire... A lot
But it won't because we are talking about mindless drones

Yeah, that's true. Only the order of magnitude of the lead really matters since we've seen how quickly Undertale can tear through it once the rally is in full form.

I get people like the game, but wanting it to win for this reason is stupid. Please show me your picture perfect bracket only flawed by Undertale matches. Chrono Trigger was actually the favorite on neutral strength.

Eh, why bother

Undertale will outrally Pokémon, but if the lead pushes to 5000 then Undertale has to outrally Pokémon by 5000 votes, etc.

Pokémon doesn't "need" any number but it's just...the higher the better to repel the rally.

Said ceiling is very high though. I too think the game to come out of this match looks like the favorite, but I can't rule OoT out after seeing how Link kept up with Draven.

It would need to be rallied. Oot is one of the most respected games on earth. If it gets decent rallies Undertale has no chance.

Not really. If Pokemon wins it loses to oot with ease. Undertale beats oot unless there's a huge oot rally

I dont see how Pokemon can be rallied against oot.

People need to look at total votes. Undertale's peak sees it get about 250-300 per update, which I think Pokemon can compete with. It'll probably lose some of the lead, but it can definitely counter-rally. Should be fun!

"____Had it's time" applies to most of the beloved games on the roster right now.
RBY's been pulling in 50ish vote updates recently. Hope that keeps up.

Don't tell me "Undertale is the only recent game left standing" though. Like, Skyrim is incredible.

Also I just checked: Undertale is getting the same number of votes as it did against SMW during this time, its just that Pokemon is blowing it away.
