He may be a hot topic for Ultimate but I wouldn't say that that's why he was nominated (and honestly I wouldn't even classify him as a "meme" like the other 3 I mentioned, but especially the latter 2). Isaac was an 18 seed in 2013, which makes me wonder if he would have made the field this year without being one of the hot button requests for Smash this year. Hell, he was the same seed as Geno in fact. Isaac's 18 seed was not "legitimate." There were three characters named Isaac in the contest so SBAllen gave all three an 18 seed as a joke. And Golden Sun Isaac was even as high as a 6 seed in 2010 but Dark Dawn anticipation at the time probably boosted his nominations a bit. I think the reason Golden Sun has maintained strength is that the games are really the opposite of cult or niche. They were RPGs that arrived on the GBA when there weren't many RPGs available yet, their production values blew the competition out of the water, and they sold and were received very well. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] <cite>AxemRedRanger posted [p:909951976] in Leonhart A...
