This reads more to me like Ultimate is definitively more popular than Melee, something that no other Smash really did, so Melee is suffering the 'outdated Smash' drop.

So turd of the week goes to Melee? Yeah, I know lol using Poll of the Day to determine anything, but big swings between the same poll can be meaningful, like Chun-Li steadily improving in the 12-way Street Fighter poll pointing to her boosting (and based on the most recent one, she has the potential to do a lot of damage next time) and the 'when creating a custom character, what gender do you play as' one pointing hard towards female characters being played far more leading up to 2018. The GameCube poll points to a decent Melee drop, and while today's is brand new, this is...not exactly an inspiring Melee performance. --- Not a stinky alien. :( Nintendo Switch Code: SW-5719-6555-8388 ...

Just wanna recognize LFF is so strong for Sonic 2 as the only non-Nintendo game here today that it looks like it can compete with Melee.
Although this is also an additional indictment on Melee. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/ssb/images/0/0d/Sheik-Victory3-SSB4.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well, I imagine Sonic 2 is suffering a bit as well since we saw Mario World lay the smack down on it in 2004. But we're seeing Pokemon continue to resist SFF well, so I don't know that I'd take G/S/C to beat Melee just yet, although they faced each other in 2015 and it wasn't a blowout even with Melee rallying. --- ...

Pokemon's relative resistance to SFF is on display here, but Pokemon GS does have to contend with Pokemon RS so it isn't totally unscathed.

Is there a significant meaning to Nintendo for Nov 21st? All these big games released on the same date can't be a coincidence.
These are the Japanese release dates for these games, so looking at their calendar, there's a holiday on Nov 23rd (Labor Thanksgiving Day) so maybe that has something to do with it? --- Congratulations to azuarc for winning the guru challenge ... Copied to Clipboard!

2021: Knockout City 2019: Slay the Spire (PS4) 2013: Resident Evil Revelations (PC/Wii U) ...and it's at this point that my convenient resource ran out of gas. Is there an easy place to go to see a day of the year and then see what games were released on that day over the years?

Wow this is cool poll, happy to see Gold/Silver doing this well. Hopefully we'll get a contest next year. Gold/Silver is only doing well because there's a lot of LFF among the other non-Pokemon Nintendo games. It wouldn't normally beat Mario World in a 1v1 match.
