Tetris beats Galaga but leaves room for doubt |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tetris beat Galaga as expected, but the writeup considered its performance unimpressive for much of the poll. That softness briefly encouraged speculation that Pong might have a real chance in the next round.

Tetris beats Pong as the match picture steals attention |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tetris comfortably beat Pong in an otherwise forgettable match. The writeup remembers the poll primarily for the widely loved paddle-versus-block match picture and for another weak turnout in a division already viewed as filler before the heavyweights met.

Zelda routs Tetris and strengthens its divisional favorite status |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zelda dismissed Tetris and looked like the clear favorite to take its division. The writeup treats the result as another step in Zelda's dominant opening run, with Mario 3 offering the only real counterargument.

Donkey Kong survives Punch-Out as Tetris dominates |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
The first 2009 match centered on Donkey Kong versus Punch-Out for the second advancing spot. Donkey Kong survived an early scare and a reputation for choking to pull away, while Tetris dominated the field.
SFF: The writeup says Tetris imposed old-school overlap on Space Invaders and likely hurt Donkey Kong as well, though Donkey Kong was still strong enough to beat Punch-Out.

Tetris confirms its edge over Mega Man 2 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tetris beat Mega Man 2 comfortably and was never seriously threatened after the opening moments. Mega Man 2 nevertheless held up better than its first-round showing suggested, while the writeup declines to pin the result on SFF.

Zelda closes the gap on Mario in a strange rematch |
|
✓ |
|
|
|

|
Mario still beat Zelda without being seriously threatened, but the margin collapsed compared with their prior matchup. The writeup treats the shift as evidence that Mario split more badly with the surrounding field and as setup for later surprises.
LFF: The writeup says Mega Man 2 and Tetris hurt Mario's support more than Zelda's, helping narrow the Mario-Zelda gap sharply from their previous meeting.

|
Pokémon RBY beats Tetris without the expected SFF |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pokémon RBY beat Tetris comfortably, but many observers wrongly interpreted the margin through old Nintendo SFF comparisons. The writeup explicitly argues that Pokémon showed little or no SFF here and was stronger than the raw comparison suggested.

What this is
Each row's Headline and (on filter) narrative come from a
ChatGPT reading of that match's Board 8 wiki writeup. The five flags
(SFF same-fanbase factor, LFF low-fanbase
factor, Rally outside rally, Cheat cheating
alleged, Pic match-picture factor) are set only when the writeup
asserts that effect — never inferred from the numbers. Hover a check for the
note. †OT marks a writeup that mostly wanders off the
match.
