I decided to create another mock bracket, this time for a reprise that I've seen a decent amount of interest in - Best Series Ever II. Feel free to comment with any predictions, gripe about any snubs, or discuss anything else about this bracket!

Hmm... okay I'll admit, that's a better looking bracket than I expected. I guess a thing or two CAN change over the course of 12 years!
I'd personally like to see Zelda promoted to final Boss Battle status, Mario moved to that spot, Pokemon can be the other #1, with that done I'd like this quite a bit. --- BKSheikah dominated even The Show hosts in 2017, wow! board8.wikia.com | thengamer.com/xstats ... Copied to Clipboard!

Division 2 seems too imbalanced. MG/Metroid/Megaman/Sonic all in the same division as seeds 2-5 and behind Persona being the 1 seed? Those all seem like they should be on the same level as 2/3 seeds.

Persona as a 1 seed seems high, but I think it is in a position to do well.
Here's a snub you probably wouldn't expect - Lego. While no particular game probably reaches enough popularity to get into a games bracket, it's a large enough franchise that it could sneak into this. --- darkx Score: There goes bracket ... Copied to Clipboard!

I gave a lot of thought to series respect factor here.

I feel like Metroid games were too strong in BGE 2015 not to make it a decent favourite in this theoretical division 2. Really like that division though, would love to see how it played out.
FF vs. Smash in division finals would be cool too. Could definitely see FF taking it through series / old school respect, but it would be interesting to see play out. Maybe Zelda could be the Final Boss, too, which would allow for a pretty up in the air Mario/FF/Smash/Pokemon? final. There is definite precedent for it to be removed, too, since it is undefeated in the Series Contest. --- Advokaiser made an above average bracket, I'd say. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Wraup up Show prep work took a little more time than I expected but I'm here now to live up to my promise! I'll be picking the non-Zelda version I requested. Full disclosure: I don't remember anything about the Series Contest except for the final match so there may be some blunders.
(1) Mario > (16) Harvest Moon (8) Ace Attorney > (9) Suikoden - have to imagine Suik has fallen off hard since its glory days (5) Mass Effect > (12) Mortal Kombat - could be close though! (13) Golden Sun > (4) Grand Theft Auto - Nintendo nostalgia + antivotes = anything is possible (3) Xenoblade > (14) Half-Life - reserve the right to change this opinion if HL3 launches the day before the match (11) Kirby > (6) Fallout - I'd pick this TODAY because of the 76 disappointment but FO5 might right the ship in time (7) Tales of > (10) Batman: Arkham - Arkham's first game was loved but the others didn't put it over the top (2) Fire Emblem > (15) Tetris (1) Persona > (16) Okami - never count out Ammy... but I didn't realize there even was a sequel so it's doomed! (8) Dragon Quest / Warrior > (9) Crash Bandicoot - IconFAQs won't flourish in this environment (5) Mega Man > (12) Dragon Age (4) Sonic > (13) StarCraft - would have been fun in 2003/4/5 though... (3) Metroid > (14) The Legend of Heroes (6) Monster Hunter > (11) Warcraft - not much would lose to Warcraft or GTA these days IMO (7) Mario Kart > (10) Mega Man X - ouch, brutal draw for MMX, should be close though (2) Metal Gear > (15) Life is Strange (1) Pokmon > (16) Civilization (8) Yakuza > (9) Drakengard (5) Chrono Trigger > (12) Assassins Creed (4) Kingdom Hearts > (13) Tomb Raider - like Batman, the reboot was nice but the sequels didn't build on the momentum (3) Resident Evil > (14) Star Fox - not quite the same thing as Fox > Jill (6) Donkey Kong Country > (11) Final Fantasy Tactics - got to ashume FFT is way down these days (7) Portal > (10) BioShock - would like to see BS elsewhere, think it gets SFFed with this draw (2) Castlevania > (15) Bayonetta (1) Final Fantasy >. (16) Pac-Man (9) EarthBound / Mother > (8) Red Dead - really tough... RD isn't as antivoted as GTA and I'd pick it to win today, but it'll be old news by 2019's match day (5) God of War > (12) Devil May Cry - 51/49 affair, I'll give GoW a boost for its GotY win (4) The Elder Scrolls > (13) Paper Mario - difficult, would side with whatever had their next release coming sooner (3) Dark Souls > (14) Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (6) The Witcher > (11) Street Fighter - scary choice, feel like this could flip based on any little thing (7) Uncharted > (10) Halo - revenge for my Drake > Master Chief pick! which appears to have been wrong, and this probably is too, but I'll go down with the ship (2) Smash Bros. > (15) Diablo - don't we guys have phones? --- Advo bested even The Show hosts in 2018, yowza! board8.wikia.com | thengamer.com/xstats ...

(1) Mario > (8) Ace Attorney
(13) Golden Sun > (5) Mass Effect - only a $60 remastered Mass Effect Trilogy release for every system, with all the DLC included, could flip this result! (3) Xenoblade > (11) Kirby - cute character design doesn't go as far in a Series bracket (2) Fire Emblem > (7) Tales of - FE might SFF this a bit? (1) Persona > (8) Dragon Quest / Warrior (5) Mega Man > (4) Sonic - probably closer than a character battle, but I still favor MM (3) Metroid > (6) Monster Hunter (2) Metal Gear > (7) Mario Kart - veeeeery tempted by this upset after they killed MGS... but that's my bias showing (1) Pokmon > (8) Yakuza (5) Chrono Trigger > (4) Kingdom Hearts - sorry no chance, even if KH3 is fantastic (3) Resident Evil > (6) Donkey Kong Country - DKC could put a scare into it though! (2) Castlevania > (7) Portal - would have been a sexy upset before the death of western games/characters (1) Final Fantasy >.(9) EarthBound / Mother (4) The Elder Scrolls > (5) God of War (3) Dark Souls > (6) The Witcher - really tough choice! (2) Smash Bros. > (7) Uncharted --- (1) Mario > (13) Golden Sun (3) Xenoblade > (2) Fire Emblem - no idea, I assume this is 51/49 either way (1) Persona > (5) Mega Man - Persona will always be 300% better in nominations but ehhh, bracket voting might sneak it through (3) Metroid > (2) Metal Gear (1) Pokmon > (5) Chrono Trigger - I'd go CT > RBY in Game of the 90s but series respect will decide this (3) Resident Evil > (2) Castlevania - should be a good one (1) Final Fantasy >.(4) The Elder Scrolls (2) Smash Bros. > (3) Dark Souls --- Advo bested even The Show hosts in 2018, yowza! board8.wikia.com | thengamer.com/xstats ...

(1) Mario > (3) Xenoblade
(3) Metroid > (1) Persona - MP4 hype should make this easy (1) Pokmon > (3) Resident Evil (2) Smash Bros. > (1) Final Fantasy - Ultimate will have died down, but never count out the Melee fanbase. would a rally even be needed though, after what we saw happen to everyone except Cloud/Tifa/Vivi? --- (1) Mario > (3) Metroid - sorry Samus, unless it's MP4 release day you'll never get over this hump (1) Pokmon > (2) Smash Bros. - Pokemon Switch will be just around the corner while Ultimate will have died down, but should be close regardless --- (1) Mario > (1) Pokmon - the one Nintendo thing in the bracket Mario can't SFF, should make for the best Grand Finals since GotD Overall Trends: The voterbase is smarter (and smaller) than ever so respect voting for what they consider "real series" will be through the roof. That means good things for your Castlevanias and Resident Evils of the world, bad for things with just one strong entrant like CT, BioShock, Fallout. They're also super tuned in to gaming news and the latest industry trends, so they're turn their backs on recent series that have been abandoned or whose latest entrant left gamers sour. And they'll also be more susceptible to HYPE when a series has an exciting new release coming out soon. Regarding Final Fantasy... I'd have no problem with people calling it the favorite versus anything not named The Legend of Zelda. But if the bracket comes together like MetalMind set it up, I think the series is doomed because I can't see it running the Nintendo Gauntlet. A close win over Smash would leave Nintendo fans upset and out for revenge, if it then knocked off Pokemon a couple days later they'd be screaming for blood and shouting "Final Fantasy Always Wins!" at the top of their lungs heading into the Mario showdown. --- Advo bested even The Show hosts in 2018, yowza! board8.wikia.com | thengamer.com/xstats ...
