If Nintendo fans were in fact doing what you say, Mario would be winning right now.
No. Did you read my 2nd part? Zelda as a franchise is more popular than mario sff or not
Also if you believe rivalry format is stronger for mario(which it is) then there is rsff involved.
Link got 64% against mario. Indirectly hevwas worth about 55-56%
Link will end up about 58% for this match. My point is people are voting for mario because of a better rivalry factor thats still rsff because they chose mario over link.
Obviously for mario to beat link it has to be major rsff and you cant swing that high
