Despite getting a 1 seed, this would be Mario 3's only win in this contest, for better or worse. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6068-best-game-ever-day-5-pokemon-red-blue-vs-tetris This division was fascinating on paper. You had the three most popular Mario games and the most popular Pokmon game. Could R/B/Y/G run the gauntlet? I had predicted it to do so, and I think it probably would have done it based on what little we saw. Alas, rallies ruined a cool division. At the time, this was viewed as an underperformance for Pokmon because Zelda 1 had put up 75% on Tetris in 2004 before losing to Mario 3, and R/B/Y/G's inability to SFF it was considered a problem. It's also a shame Tetris was wasted here because it could've been an interesting entrant elsewhere. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard! |
