Okay, lol x-stats time:
Mega Man X (2006s) has a strength of 23.20 against Base Link.
Metroid (2006s) has a strength of 18.04 against Base Link.
Mega Man X 61.12% 80,550
Metroid 38.88% 51,238
TOTAL VOTES 131,788
Mega Man X wins with 61.12% of the vote!
A 29,312 vote margin of victory.
Sonic the Hedgehog (2006s) has a strength of 35.00 against Base Link.
Metroid (2006s) has a strength of 18.04 against Base Link.
Sonic the Hedgehog 74.23% 95,272
Metroid 25.77% 33,077
TOTAL VOTES 128,350
Sonic the Hedgehog wins with 74.23% of the vote!
A 62,195 vote margin of victory.
The BGE2009 stats have Metroid Prime > Mega Man X > Sonic the Hedgehog > Super Metroid > Sonic 2 > Sonic 3.
And yet, despite the Samus/Ridley rivalry being far less representative of a far weaker franchise, it finished ahead of X's and Sonic's rivalries in the stats. Huh?
