I see no problem with that! As anyone who Mario is over Tetris and you know which one most ages would know and that applies to the theme.

Tomb Raider beat Pokemon!

Plus OutRun beat Banjo, and Halo beat Street Fighter, so it's not really a Nintendo walkover.

SMB will win though.

Heh, you know I was only kidding.

But it says a lot that you think of Banjo and Street Fighter as Nintendo games.

We should just vote against Mario this round out of protest.

You have a lot of older people on this forum that grew up with Nintendo so this doesn't shock me, especially as games like Mario and Zelda are still present today!

Either nostalgic or senile. Oh, well. The old take comfort in delusions. No harm done.

I think it says a lot about us that JC Denton and Bob Page seem to have the most pertinent responses throughout the forum.

It is genuinely a joke that it's got this far. It's not even the most iconic Metroid theme!

...quite a funny joke though. I hope it wins the whole thing.

It's a nice piece of music and it really works well in the game, but like strawberry float is it iconic in the way that some of the tracks in this have been!

It's going to be the beneficiary of an anti-Mario voting bloc next round.
