But who wins in Castlevania 3 vs Contra? Prince of Persia vs Full Throttle?

For those matches to happen one of those games would have to be on the upper side of seeding, and how many times would that happen?

Yeah, there will be some hideous fodder that makes it through, but even the weakest games in the bracket are still someone's nostalgia trip, and I guarantee you it's no worse than the fodder for the contest we just had.

It's cool when one of those games make the bracket, but it all cancels out when you know it's gonna get blown out. 90s fodder may be stronger than this year's fodder, but it would also be facing stronger competition, so the results end up been similar or worse. If one is surprised that a certain game made it through, even if it's a pleasant surprise, that just means it won't get past round 1, specially cause it most likely ended up with a low seed.
