Tomorrow is the best time for FFVII/OoT because Cloud just got released for Smash 4.


Worst time for OOT because it certainly will not be the favorite during the spillover.

Don't blame it on DKC2. Castlevania is just a monster like that.

Fixed, I really want that SoM/Star Fox match, so I just threw Super Punch Out where the other one was.

Ditto for the SMK/Super Metroid grudge match

The irony is that no one here expected Majora's Mask to win. Everyone had their eyes on Melee, Brawl, and FFX.

It did worse than BK did on SotN in the span of one round, and BK is a weak game. I can respect SotN as a midcarder, but DKC2 is weak.

Seriously though, DKC2 would be a heavy nomination favourite, I'm honestly shocked it did worse than Banjo-Kazooie, given how garbage that game is compared to the platforming gold of DKC2

Brawl was very probably the strongest game in that bracket. Majora's Mask needed a big bandwagon to beat it in the finals, and even then it won only by a slim margin.

...Damn.
I would've thought the antivoting from melee fans would've been way too powerful for Brawl to get anywhere.

Brawl beat Melee in a straight up match, proving that most people care more about content and quality of a sequel over the curmudgeony nostalgia and unwillingness to move to learn a new game.

Kirby Super Star/DKC a bit tough.
I'd be worried about All-Stars. It has the ALL YOUR POWERS COMBINED thing going on. >_>

(1) - Chrono Trigger
(2) - Final Fantasy II/IV

(1) - Super Mario World
(2) - Super Metroid

(1) - Final Fantasy 3/6
(2) - Super Mario RPG

(1) - Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past
(3) - Mega Man X

Mostly simple round, I think.

(1) - Chrono Trigger
(1) - Super Mario World
(1) - Final Fantasy 3/6
(1) - Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past

if this was a real bracket i'd probably talk myself into CRAZY UPSET SMRPG > FFVI somehow.

(1) - Chrono Trigger
(1) - Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past

CT/SMW could maybe be interesting because hey, Mario/Crono.

(1) - Chrono Trigger

CT too powerful.

Link's tyranny has literally only been interrupted by jokes and rallies for over a decade

The one time it was interrupted by something else it was by Cloud saving the contests and it turned him into a literal joke too

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
You can't retroactively attribute that to FFX! And Tidus tried really hard to win that match, darn it! Twice as hard as Missingno, even!

And Tidus isn't representative of the entire game!

Heck, Squall beat Missingno more easily than anyone!
