Crono is ecstatic that there might be a format where he's not the first one to fail the Noble Nine.
If all else fails use fire.

Maybe promising that Mega Man won the last hour... hopefully he'll start reliably gaining once the East Coast wakes up.

What is up with Mega Man in Europe? Were his games just never released there?

For anyone wondering, unadjusted Chloe is currently worth about 6.34% against Link.

MM isn't doing that bad in Europe overall. It's mostly UK. And Portugal.

Mega Man is crushing in all of South America though.
Those damn Peru vote stuffers are probably at it again.
Not changing this sig until Caius Ballad is released in FFRK.

I thought Pikachu gradually dropped for the rest of the day his past few matches.

Either way, congrats Pika. To think I thought of taking Mega Man over Cloud. I thought Mega would be stronger now since he's actually getting games again.

04:00 | 52.16% | +35 | Pikachu took the lead during this hour
05:00 | 50.07% | +1
06:00 | 51.98% | +28
07:00 | 52.99% | +45

The match is half over by time, but around 2/3 over by votes. Also it looks like we're around 2,000 votes short of where we should be (based on the last matches that started on a Monday).

That's perfectly put. Growing up. Mega Man wasn't a thing hear in Scotland, and like you, I'd never heard of him until coming on this website.

I shouldn't be surprised that some people use 'indie' as a pejorative when referring to video games, and yet I am anyways. Maybe I'm just too optimistic - maybe I think too much of people.

Nah Europe loves Final Fantasy.

But also DBZ. And I’ve said many many times on this board that Crono gets a ton of votes from that fan base due to his familiar akira toriyama style.

Sprite based 2d sidescrollers are essentially the biggest indie genre the last decade though. Only thing that separates modern Mega Man games from the pack is his legacy... And that's not going to gain him any new fans, it's just appealing to the same old ones.

Smash 4 is indie?

Let’s be honest. If he wasn’t in smash 4. Pikachu would be well ahead right now.

My argument wasn't about Mega Man's games not being akin to indie games, it was bemoaning your seeming use of the term indie as a pejorative. You're right that the games he's starred in this decade aren't really gaining him new fans, though.

This is purely anecdotal, but I tested views of our Noble Nine on a group of RL gamer friends in the late-00s. All of them knew who Crono was and many were fans of CT. Very few had any idea who Mega Man was at all and none apart from me had played any of his games. I'm a UKer.

Things starting to stabilise for MM now. Rat needs some more juice.
