Got the screencap of Samus-Mario tied at 55-55.


I have that, and also immediately after when Samus took the lead
So between this match, Tifa/Sephiroth, Samus/Tifa, and Mario/Sephiroth, can we consider rSFF pretty conclusively proven?

Not the best start for Sonic!


Sonic was literally 51-49 over Auron after 10 mins.

Lets give it time

Final number should be 52-48 in Zeldas Favour.
Samus is cutting now.
Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs
Also after today's performance I feel very comfortable calling Sonic the weak link of the Noble Nine.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
I'll be OK with Cloud > Link if Zelda somehow unsheathes the biggest case of HIERARCHY we've ever seen and stomps Mario next round.
Samus isn't dead yet...

Um.....Samus is back to 48% now?

SFF between Mario and Samus will always favour Mario. Same with Link/Mario

Tifa/Seph is more about Tifa being on the good guy side and Seph being on the Bad. That and the fact that Seph has been compeltely and utterly irrelevant in Gaming since Kingdom Hearts 2.
Stop tantalizing, Ms. Aran.

And then rSFF Link and wins it all.
Samus won the last 2.5 minutes by a serious margin. This could get interesting.

Samus started cutting into Mario's lead during the final 2 minutes of the board vote.

How the f*** is Samus still so damn strong?

Mario has had Odyssey FFS. Both Galaxy Games as well between Samus having Other M and some DS Spin offs/Remakes. Crazy

Sephiroth is in a PS4 game, Vincent, Aerith and Tifa aren't.

4 people fell off the Top 50. TeamRocketElite, Fr0zoN, Ngamer64 and azuarc did not have Cloud winning yesterday.

15 people fell off the Second Chance Top 50. queenmiku, kefkamademedoit, Dino-K, iammchammer, Mayor-Zero, desuno-to, ima420r, Zelos_ToS, neyu9x, jacksbad, purefault, rmiczek, BobDoleConan, shayersrevenge and vi-r-us also did not have Cloud winning yesterday.

No messing around allowed this time. If you didn't get a perfect score, you got kicked from the Top 50.
This was not the best year for my bracket.
Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest!

Yes because Zelda is more popular. Mario is more popular than MEtroid

FFVII is the same game.

Seph is a bad guy but one bad guy that had more of a following and respect during 7's peak popularity.

Now Tifa is stronger simply because She looks attractive from a Video games perspective is from the same gme and those same people don't care about Seph enough.

Cloud at least has bene in Smash.

And we havent' really seen POst Smash Cloud yet.

This is actually the most embarassing result for the N9 IMO. Sonic is scrambling to hold on to 40%. It's going to be an absolute blowout.

70% is Link Level

Though I think Link would get more than 70% on this current Contest.

It's an embarrassment even if he gets up to 45%. Sonic is a Noble Nine character who is currently getting wrecked by a non-rallied outsider. This is an easy win for him 5 years ago.

lol. 42% is pathetic.

Who the hell projected that? Based on Snakes Prformance?
That may be the best 36 vote extension against a losing character we could see all contest.

If mario can only get 53-55% on Samus then somehow the SFF has been weakened between the two. Which still baffles me as Odyssey should have done wonders for Mario. Samus still hasn't had a AAA Game since Prime 3.
So Snake/Auron had shenanigans, which makes a lot of sense.

that was before her botw boost. She beat snake after all..

Mario does better with the 2nd 5 minutes than the 1st. Well, that's probably game.

Extrapolating trends through Tifa and Sephiroth suggest Samus should end a little higher than where she is now, but by less than 1%.

Side note: seeing the Nintendo hierarchy in action once again just continues to show how weird it is that it exists. No other fanbase has inter-fanbase weirdness to the point that Nintendo does. Samus is projected to comfortably beat Mario, but she doesn't because Mario is above Metroid. No other fanbase does this, at least not to the extent Nintendo does.

Shame it will go missing when Mario faces Link. Honestly this isn't a great performance by Mario.

There goes the notion that Mario could get 40% on Link. Never happening

What makes Prime 3 AAA and not Other M? Was there a big difference in budget?

I'm intrigued by the idea of Mario vs. Zelda now, because Mario should be above her in the heiarchy, but this beastly Zelda could have easily climbed the ladder of said heiarchy herself.

I think Mario is lower on the hierarchy now. It's a theory I've held for a while, but 10+ years ago, he was pretty much the sole face of the company (Pikachu being perhaps the lone exception). Mario was the only character they used when promoting things on a Nintendo-wide scale.

That isn't the case anymore. Nintendo has branched out and is using many of their formerly overlooked characters in their marketing. This was evident with projects like the "Year of Luigi" and with Mario's significantly lessened role in marketing Ultimate. He was hardly prominent in any of those trailers.
Sonic is making this respectable.

Maybe Samus > Mario in 2004 could have been a thing

>_>
