The only thing Sackboy has going for him is that voters that have never
heard of him may mistake him as a joke character. He's not beating
Black Mage. --- Donkey Kong Country 2 for next Games contest. Brawl FC: 3050-7287-5564 Kart FC: 3738-0020-0896 |

i haven't followed this for a while but the PS3 had overtaken the 360 in sales no? did the 360 jump ahead again? |

http://vgchartz.com/ Ok I was wrong, only a little over doubling PS3 in America 360: 12.66 Mil PS3: 5.95 Mil And the second is opinion, but its generally accepted opinion.

And heres world wide sales of software and hardware for last week: http://vgchartz.com/weekly.php Whats that? 360 at 178k, and PS3 in last place among next gen consoles at 118k?

Talking about plushies and the contest, I would buy a Sandbag plushy.
Like, right now, and I probably wouldn't care about the price. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |

Pretty rough showing from Mega Man today, not that it means too much with his path. --- Kept you waiting, huh |

Question: How powerful do you think Vivi would be if he wasn't designed like a classic Black Mage? --- Biolizard28: The cream of Fire Emblem fanboyism. http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/7315/ocelotpartycd1.gif |

Just a bit less, because he's still Vivi at heart. --- Can it be considered weird to quote myself? Me, somewhere in a distant past... with muffins. |

Probably a fair bit weaker than he is now. Design can go a long way. --- Kept you waiting, huh |
| KamikazePotato | Posted 10/5/2008 5:09:50 PM | message detail |

Vivi would be a lot weaker if he weren't a Black Mage. Even if he's
beloved by the FF9 fanbase...how many people on this site have played
FF9? --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

More people have played IX than VIII, judging by the boards. --- Can it be considered weird to quote myself? Me, somewhere in a distant past... with muffins. |

Vivi would be weaker than Zidane if he weren't a Black Mage. Period. ...and wow, Mega Man never fails with opportunities to disappoint. Yeesh. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

I bet CT and FF6 -- even separately -- have got a much higher play-rate than FF9 here, too. Thank you, emulation. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |

Do they count? People barely play those because of their... horrific loading times. --- Can it be considered weird to quote myself? Me, somewhere in a distant past... with muffins. |

1) I shouldn't have to answer that. They are still CT and FF6. 2) With play-rate numbers like these, especially in comparison with their SNES releases... http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2184 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2177 ...they certainly count. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |

So together they have about 60.000 guys that have them. Gotta say, not that impressive... --- Can it be considered weird to quote myself? Me, somewhere in a distant past... with muffins. |

FFIX has a terrible playrate compared to the other popular FF games on
this site. Just look at Vivi; the fanbase absolutely loves him, he's a
Black Mage, and yet only a midcarder at best. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Agreed with Lopen. Onto another subject: what's the consensus on MM9's effects for this contest, or is it a non-factor? --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |
