The rankings are the most agreeable I have seen it so far. Melee is ever-so-slowly creeping up in the rankings....
I'd rank most of the other games that missed the cut over FF7, though... I mean, FF7 beat Goldeneye, Diablo 2, and FF8. Meh.
I swear, FF6's job in this contest is to expose frauds, and little else, which is why it gets killed by Pokemon and Super Metroid.
And it proved that Super Metroid is not a fraud! I hope. >_> (even if SM lost to MGS2....) I'm still waiting for Final Fantasy X and Phoenix Wright: Trials & Tribulations to be exposed by actually losing. They're both great games, though, and I hope to see them win by actually doing better, not by getting lucky.
As for rivalry matches, I would love to see:
-Symphony of the Night vs. Final Fantasy VII
-Star Fox 64 vs. Mario Kart 64
-Battletoads vs. Umineko.... just kidding. I just want BT to win. :[
-Zelda: Wind Waker vs. Paper Mario
-Final Fantasy X vs. Final Fantasy VI
-MVP Baseball 2005 vs. Umineko... well, this one might be reasonable.
