I wouldn't take those users seriously. A ton of people who only play a certain group of games can't comprehend in their small minds a game like PErsona 4 beating GTAV. To them GTAV is this big elite game that sold 80 million and Persona is this niche weeb game for weebs. Thats how pathetic some of these guys are.

Ocarina of Time (2015g) VS Mario Galaxy 2 (2015g)

Ocarina of Time has a strength of 47.95.
Mario Galaxy 2 has a strength of 27.47.

Ocarina of Time wins with 71.36% of the vote!

Would be a good place to start.

Currently it's hovering around Resident Evil 4 numbers, so it's strong but not a worldbeater.

This is a bit hyperbolic but not by much. Current projections (using Life is Strange, which is not the most reliable statistic but whatever) projects BotW to get about 69% on SMG2.

Lol remember how much people were freaking out when witcher 3 destroyed ME3, with some folks even saying that it would give BoTW a run for its money? I saw a bunch of 70-30 predictions for this match that day.

To be fair there were also people who suggested that witcher's first 2 opponents(including ME3) weren't the best indicator of its overall strength and that we should wait for this match to see its true strength.

Anyways unless it gets atleast 65-35 it doesnt deserve to even be called second seed ahead of smash and odyssey.
Let alone even be in the same conversation as BoTW.

Of course not.But Im saying that for witcher to be called the clear second seed it should get 65 - 35 here.
Otherwise theres a debate to be had between Smash, Witcher and Odyssey.
Also go check out the thread discussion of the witcher vs ME3 match, people were acting as if it being second place was a foregone conclusion and even saying it could get 45% on zelda, which based on this performance is laughable.

Pre contest anythign above 55% for Witcher would have been good.

So yeah you could say dissapointment...to me its like "Ok its getting to final" so what?

SMG2 isn't some weak ass game. Its a mainline mario game.
Disappointment relative to the fodderizing it gave ME3. Although that might be more of an indictment on ME3 than anything else.

SMG2 is main line Mario but it's pretty clearly one of the weakest that's gotten contest airtime. It doesn't scratch elite Nintendo.

Of course not. But i wouldn't put any Nintendo game this contest Elite except BOTW. Ultimate and Odyssey aren't RBY and MArio 64. Hell Super Mario World would handily beat Odyssey.

So these aren't Nintendo ELite games either. Smash certainly isn't. 64% on Spidernan? cmon.

Is there any evidence proving Super Mario Galaxy 2 didn't just get weaker from the last contest? I mean all it did was get past two indie games. Plus Odyssey making it irrelevant. .All it could be doing is swapping places with the Witcher here. All this poll tells me is Witcher III is about equal to Okami until I see otherwise. If it only gets by God of war with 54% then I'll feel I'm right with this take.

I mean the Switch is super popular so more Nintendo fans on this site in general compared to 5 years ago when the wii U was the height of Nintendo power.

Xenoblade is a good example of a Nintendo game doing a lot better now than before

I'm including modern Nintendo games. Not game released before 2005
Why would Odyssey have made it irrelevant? Mainline Mario isn't frickin FIFA.

I never said its weak. Im just pointing out how people had more or less called it the definitive second seed due to it's previous match's performance and why its too early to definitively make that call.
