There's also the fact of the matter that FFVI always seems to rise up to the occasion when it faces an "overrated" opponent.
Like Super Metroid!
Super Metroid doesn't count. The two weeks before saw it lose to MGS2 and come about seven votes away from losing to StarCraft. FFVI should by all indications have walked away with a 60-40 beating in its favor, and instead the opposite happened because FFVI simply underestimated Super Metroid, and was therefore made to look weaker than StarCraft.
Huh, out of all the games that Super Metroid has beaten, StarCraft did best. Not Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy Tactics, or Persona 4, but StarCraft.
It has been confirmed: Super Metroid overperforms against JRPGs.
