Spring 2K4 |
Round 1 |

|
Super Metroid wins but weakens its case against Zelda |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Super Metroid won comfortably but failed to match the standard A Link to the Past had just set against weak opposition. The writeup treats that gap as an early sign that Super Metroid's hoped-for challenge to Zelda was already doomed.

|
Link to the Past crushes Super Metroid and alarms rivals |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Link to the Past demolished Super Metroid and delivered another startlingly strong Zelda result. The writeup says the margin transformed widespread Zelda confidence into genuine concern that the series might overwhelm the entire contest.

Super Metroid edges Mario Kart in a strange classic |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Super Metroid and Super Mario Kart produced a remarkably close, trend-defying fight for first while both were already safe to advance. Sonic 3's poor showing was the bigger strategic surprise, and the writeup reports but does not endorse cheating accusations.

Super Metroid beats Mario Kart again under Zelda's shadow |

|
A Link to the Past dominated, while Super Metroid and Super Mario Kart repeated almost the same close race and voting trends as their first-round meeting. Metroid again survived, but the rematch lacked the tension its margin suggested.
SFF: The writeup says A Link to the Past was clearly SFFing all three fellow SNES and Nintendo-era games in the poll.

|

|

|
A Link to the Past and Final Fantasy VI advanced in a match the writeup considered almost completely predetermined. The only notable fanbase effect was Link's Awakening taking especially heavy suppression.
SFF: The writeup says A Link to the Past SFFed Link's Awakening heavily and left both lower Nintendo games suppressed beneath Final Fantasy VI.

Division VI |
|
Super Metroid delivers a shocking first-round rout |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Super Metroid demolished Call of Duty 4 far more severely than expected and transformed its contest reputation overnight. The writeup treats the performance as evidence of both Call of Duty decline and a major Super Metroid resurgence.

|
Super Metroid breaks the Mario hierarchy |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Super Metroid crushed Super Mario Galaxy and finally broke the long-standing expectation that Metroid would collapse against Mario. The writeup treats this as a landmark result that ended much of the site's belief in automatic Mario dominance.

Round 3 |
Division VI |
|
Majora survives Super Metroid in a pure contest classic |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Super Metroid and Majora's Mask traded tiny leads for hours before Majora finally pulled away with the later vote. Both analyses remember it as one of the contest's best pure matches, notably without rally controversy.

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.
