My favorite Zelda title against my favorite Mario title. Have to give it to WW mostly because of how awesome the HD remake was. It took a game that I already loved and made it even better.

Both are great titles and have earned their spot in this final four.

Abstaining as I haven't played SMB3 and it looks really good. Wind Waker is a great game but SMB3 could be better.

My fave Zelda vs a decent Mario game.
Decent Mario beats best Zelda every day of the week.

Artistically I feel like it's by far the best that Zelda has done. I really do. I only didn't vote for it because I'm not a big fan of the series...but I did seriously consider it just because of how well-done it is.
I never thought I would feel this way, but now I know. Now I know. I never thought I would see things as I see them now, but now I know. I never thought I would hurt so bad, but now I know. Now I know.

The HD version makes it even better. It was definitely a bold decision. I also think it's the peak of the 3D Zelda's gameplay wise. Though some would say Mario 3 was also the peak of the 2D Mario's...

I'd rather see a less expected game win. SMB3 is always on these sorts of polls. Underdogs go.

WW is not a very underdog game in general but in this matchup i'd say so.

Voted wind Waker as I loved the game I know my vote won't help it win the round but am hoping it may push it up a few ranks to fight for the 5th place spot.
