(3)Super Mario 64 vs (7)The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess 2015

Ulti's Analysis
This was one of the more boring matches of round 3. When the most interesting thing to talk about is the match picture, you know a match kind of sucks.

Speaking of, holy shit is that Mario 64 picture awful. One of the worst representations of that game we'll ever see. When you pair that with Twilight Princess giving you perhaps the most badass Link picture imaginable, plus rally spillover, it's no surprise that this match was 55-45 early. But Mario was able to recover pretty well after that, and the match pretty much stayed at 57-43 the entire way through. It was Zelda's second loss in a row, a decent tuneup for Mario, and more proof that even when Link loses against Mario, he always seems to look better.

I want to point out that this was the only direct Mario vs Link matchup of this entire contest, and Mario won it. 1-0 RECORD AGAINST LINK, BABY!

(Mario RPG totally doesn't count as a Mario game! That is obviously Squaresoft's loss!)
