BGE 2K9 Round 1 2001-2003 Paper Mario's vote drain helps Vice City eliminate Prime 1

Kingdom Hearts took first comfortably, but Vice City overturned the expected Nintendo advantage and beat Metroid Prime for second. The writeup treats Paper Mario's presence as the key reason Prime could not capitalize.

LFF: The writeup says Paper Mario leeched enough Nintendo support from Metroid Prime to cost Prime the second advancing spot against Vice City.

GOTD Round 1 West Paper Mario looks far more legitimate than expected

Paper Mario looked far stronger than many pre-contest projections had suggested and immediately weakened the case for a World of Warcraft upset next round. The writeup also notes how much Katamari's old Board 8 popularity had faded.

GOTD Round 2 West Paper Mario humiliates heavily favored World of Warcraft

Paper Mario decisively eliminated World of Warcraft in a matchup casual brackets had badly misread. The writeup treats the result as the clearest humiliation of WoW's inflated seeding and popularity expectations.

writeup (md)
GOTD Division Semifinal West Paper Mario exits with its credibility intact

Paper Mario's run ended against Metal Gear Solid 3, but the writeup treats its performance as fully legitimate after the earlier World of Warcraft upset. It also mocks how badly casual brackets had overestimated WoW's chances in this section.

BGE 2K15 Round 1 Division VII Resident Evil 4 wins with an early warning sign

Resident Evil 4 beat Paper Mario but lost enough support to create an immediate warning about its deeper prospects. The writeup uses comparisons with other Mario RPGs to argue that RE4 already looked weaker than its prior contest form.

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.
