I thought this might happen.

I'm about as big a Melee fanboy as you'll find outside the competitive scene, but there was a very real chance that it would totally collapse against OoT, and that leaves FFX to shoulder a lot more weight against 1998.

All signs right now are pointing to 1998 being easily - EASILY - the most dominant contest champion ever.

I think it's even worse for Melee since RBY is also there. We've seen polls with OoT, RBY and Melee and it gets really really ugly for Melee, even with some minor support from Paper Mario or Pikmin. And that's not to say FFX doesn't already have enough trouble with FFT, Parasyte Eve and Xenogears all being in the poll too to drain the Square support and MGS2 having to fend off MGS1. Everything else is either antivoted like Halo/MGS2 or easily countered by something 1998 has (RE2 vs SH2, Jak vs Spyro, etc). 1998 even has more Zelda games than 2001 (OoT + LADX vs OoA/OoS).
