Undertale would still have to climb a long ways in popularity to go from 37% on Mass Effect 3 to being equal with Witcher 3.

I mean, I'm sure it's more popular now just due to the exposure it got from 2015, but I wouldn't give it quite that much credit.

I wouldn't take the individual console polls to mean that much because the performances are wildly inconsistent between platforms. Bloodborne stomped Witcher 3 in the PS4 poll, for instance.

(also Undertale having a lot of overlap with Nintendo doesn't make any sense)

Oh, there's no question Melee will rally at any given opportunity, which is why I don't actually look forward to any future Games Contests (except for a GotD2, I guess).

at least with Character Battles rallies are mostly just guesswork

Also, Leon, since I suspect however you're watching this (Funimation?) is tied to the Toonami schedule, get ready to get episode 2 next week and then have a week off because of Labor Day. it's the worst. or i dunno maybe i'm wrong and you just end up a week ahead of me but i feel like season 2 and toonami were synced.


yeah I'm sure they'll be on the same release schedule

Persona 5 anime episode 20 complete

good work by the anime on cutting out the worst part of the game and still managing to make Morgana come across as less likable by having Ryuji's attempted apology be way more heartfelt and sincere and still having Morgana reject it anyway

oh well at least we got a little Chihaya in this episode and Haru's great

Akuma finished well ahead of Geno in a 4-way in 2007.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/2891-division-8-round-1-aeris-akuma-geno-squall

I mean I guess you could argue that he got SFF'd or something since Squall and Aerith were in the same poll, but I don't think it'd matter much. I suppose you could argue Akuma had the standout factor, but they've got 1-on-1 matches against Squall where Akuma comes out way ahead, too.

(seriously Allen be more original with your Squall matchups; he's faced Cloud, Snake, and Sora way too much, too)

We will not get a chance to see this match-up for at least several years since they can't meet up in a GotD contest. Only a general Games Contest will be able to provide this match to us.


and it's not like it would matter because the superiority/inferiority complex of Melee fans would immediately cause them to rally if it were in any way close

Melee was going to get 65/35'd like FFX did, which would mean...it's pretty much still where it was in 2004.

It would beat Brawl now, but that's more about Brawl than Melee.

Nah, Melee's natural strength probably hasn't changed all that much over the years. Unrallied Melee was only worth 55% on KH2 in 2015.

Well, Mega Man's 2004 performance obscured things, too, when he underperformed drastically against Link. The sheer amount of SFF and weird overperformances in SC2K4 in general threw us off. People also thought Frog's 2004 run validated Magus's strength.

I did some pretty thorough research to argue for Squall > Magus in 2005 and came to the conclusion that the dude had been overrated all along, although even I didn't anticipate him being that overrated.

Yeah, it was the 35% on Link that was hard to overlook, but we didn't totally understand the bandwagon effect back then either. It's pretty clear that when the site perceives that a character/game has pulled a big upset or two (even when we as a board actually expected it to happen), the site gets behind the underdog.

A couple of other things fooled us, too. Ganondorf probably boosted between 2003 and 2004 due to Twilight Princess hype, and Tidus/Shadow seemed to validate their 2003 numbers by having the 50/50 match the stats predicted, somehow pulling off the unlikely coincidence of both of them being equally overrated.

I think Leon usually hates it when there's a baseball or other sports episode in something like Haruhi or FMP, so he wouldn't like regular sports anime. I mean, if he actually liked those episodes there'd be a chance, but he doesn't, so eh.


I mean, they're okay in moderation. I don't dislike those episodes, but they certainly aren't my favorite and I wasn't clamoring for more of them.

I can only play blitzball in moderation, too.

It's weird though. I used to love to play sports games growing up. I wonder when I stopped enjoying them.

I don't think the Mario fanbase is apathetic either. Mario 3, Mario World, and Mario 64 are all probably top 10-15 games here. Heck, Super Mario RPG won its division in 2015 and beat some pretty popular games in the process despite having virtually zero European presence.

But like FF and Zelda, the new games aren't as popular as the classics (well, we'll see about Odyssey and BotW, I guess).
