Kids in the US should be getting out of school around now so Undertale's likely to start picking up a bit.

Melee's being obviously helped out by the Undertale influx. Its own rallies are having more of an effect, but it's still not going to make one whit of difference. Undertale drove Pokemon to 62% on Mario 3 and 78% on Sonic 2 and it still got backhanded into place by the Undertale tidal wave.

Go ahead and try to rally for FFVII on any general gaming site and see what happens.

How there is not a single rally for FF 7?


You take your time on this one.


I actually don't get this one either. Our site is hardly the only one that likes FF7.


Gfaqs is the largest western(english)community for just about every JRPG not within the Nintendo Universe. There are dedicated FF fansites that are huge but Not that much bigger than Gfaqs/

I've checked the updates and Undertale fans are favouring FFVII.

Expected Undertale to be killing it a lot more by now since it seemed to start way stronger.

Wonder why that is

I would say it's because it started so well.
Usually Undertale is always behind and have to catch back up.
This time, it's ahead and not seriously threatened, so I guess the ralliers care a lot less.
So we just need a last minute SM64 rally then

Undertale's abnormal strength is based purely on rallies. So when they fade off Undertale fades though the undertale you see today isn't the same as the one a fw weeks ago. thousands of fans know about this contest now and vote for it and it has normal trends and spikes when threes visible rallies going on. Thats why it's just naturally stronger and more consistnt but still weaker than the elite games without the major rallies.

Name some sites of appreciable size where the users could be trusted to reliably vote for FFVII over Nintendo.

I'm not going to rally or anything and maybe I'm just not familiar enough with what's out there but I can't come up with one.

If Pokémon's fanbase was fractured enough to not support gen1 in its time of need, then let's speculate what would happen if we tried to rally the single most divisive game of one of the most fractured fanbases of the internet.

Not the same thing.

pokemons fanbase is very structured. FF games are just different and have their own unique fanbases. Having had experience with multiple FF fan sites over the net in the past 10 years FFVII is always the most popular FF game. It's only on Gamefaqs where theres so much hate.

Also You can get to FFVII specific fanbases too.

Final Fantasy VII is far from being the most divisive Final Fantasy. I'm pretty sure even VIII and X are more divisive, heck even the every pre-VI Final Fantasy and everything after X is more divisive than all of those.

FFVII is one of the least divisive FF games, at least from what I gather.

Pretty much.

Most divisive was a hyperbole, but saying it's one of the least divisive is also wrong. You can't have a single discussion about the game without the "overrated" brigade popping up, and sizable ones at that. This has been true in every gaming related website I've ever been to.
huh interesting

curious that each game's rally seems to favor the other's opponent.

Ok let me expand on that. The numbers being half and half. FFVII's haters are more vocal yes but it would DECIMATE every other FF game in polls. This is the only site where FF6 will go near it.

Or it means they are split and melee is just getting bigger updates due to it's own rally.

Meh, the general selling appeal behind Undertale in this contest is that "It's a game that's not FF7 or Ocarina" so those voters aren't going to vote for FF7. >_>

SM64 holding Undertale under 51% despite having lost the lead all day is pretty great though. A shame it has to lose. D:

I guess that twitter account sets off a chain reaction of reblogs on Tumblr? It seems impossible for that particular twitter account to be so powerful....it would have to have every single last follower vote in the span of 6 hours.

Yeah, I admit I don't quite get it either. Your idea that it sets off a chain reaction of reblogs was my best guess as well.
