* Hm, I'm not too sure about these options. Three of them are pretty much the same option. I like the idea of choosing between something like multiplayer and content sharing, but the more I think about it, the more I don't think this will work well. Everyone will want to be able to play real-time multiplayer. Something like custom stage sharing implies custom stage creation, which is an entire can of worms in and of itself. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 11:51, August 9, 2021 (EDT)

==How do you feel about the first ''Pikmin'' game's time limit?==

* It's not stressful, but it is short.
* It's stressful, but fair.

# (Nominator:) On the Pikmin Discord, we were discussing why some people find the time limit to be "hard". It occurred to me that we can just ask the community at large. With these options, I'm mostly trying to gauge the stress factor and the time constraint's fairness. We can probably add more options to further gauge what players find "hard". &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 10:35, 13 June 2017 (EDT)

# The game may be over a decade old, but as players like myself learn how to play more efficiently, they would see their opinions on the game's difficulty and time limit change (for example, I struggled to make it to the Forest Navel as a kid, but now my best run in the game is 12 days.) I wouldn't think this poll could achieve any concrete entries as many who have played Pikmin 1 in the past would probably find it much easier or even harder today. |\|TechnoMan|/| (talk) 21:13, 18 July 2017 (CDT)

* Perhaps this question could be reworked, so instead of being "What Pikmin 1/2 area would you most like to see remastered using Pikmin 3's engine?", it could be "What area would you most like to see brought back and updated in a future ''Pikmin'' game?". That way it wouldn't be so unrealistic, and could also cover ''Pikmin 3'' areas. Though, the resulting poll would have a lot of options. Perhaps some of the areas in ''Pikmin'' and their ''Pikmin 2'' counterparts could be combined in the poll options. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 01:36, August 26, 2021 (EDT)

# (Nominator:) Since we did Pikmin types, why not do Bulborbs? We dont have any polls around enemies (that I know of), so this can be cool and unique. The Bulborb is also as recognizable as the Pikmin themselves, and are part of the biggest family in the series ([[Grub-dog family|grub-dog]]). This also includes Bulblaxes and Bulbears, but we can get rid of them if there are too many options. I also think Bulborb Larvae are too similar to Dwarf Bulborbs (same with Dwarf Bulbears) even though they're technically grub-dogs. &mdash; '''[[User:CrazyCow|CrazyCow]]''' October 1, 2019

**** I don't think it's fair to compare the design of stages from a 2D puzzle-ish side scroller to those of 3D real-time strategy games. They're naturally going to be designed differently to suit their respective gameplay styles (and limitations of the hardware.) But since Hey Pikmin doesn't have any peers in the series, there's not really anything close you ''can'' compare it to. So I'm not sure on this one.

==So far, all of the main series ''Pikmin'' games have been re-released on a later console. How do you feel about this?==

**Yep, changing the poll to be about exterior design makes a lot of sense. I originally intended the question to be about comparing the different aspects of the ships, like the way the S.S. Dolphin adds new parts and the Hocotate ship's personality, but I realize that it's awkward to compare different attributes.

But yeah, in retrospect I don't think the cave poll's option made sense either. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 13:19, October 11, 2021 (EDT)

**First game.  That's the issue with having a series and game with the same name.  I'm not too sure about the merge, though.  The questions are somewhat similar, but I feel they're still somewhat different. [[User:Burrhead2|Burrhead2]] ([[User talk:Burrhead2|talk]]) 19:33, June 18, 2022 (EDT)

# (Nominator:) This is more of a fun and silly poll. There are a bunch of enemies in the ''Pikmin'' series that are often considered annoying by players, and it could be interesting to have a poll on which one people find the most annoying. The options I picked are enemies commonly noted as particularly annoying. Similar polls could work for other games, though I limited this one to ''Pikmin 3'' to avoid cross-game comparisons. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 05:39, June 18, 2022 (EDT)

# (Nominator:) We had a poll like this when ''Pikmin for Nintendo 3DS'' was first announced, so it's worth having another one now that ''Pikmin 4'' has been announced.

# (Nominator:) A simple poll to see which of the four basic [[hazard]]s people like the most.

# As per the reply to my opposition, if this poll is about hazards from a game design perspective, I think this could be quite interesting.  But it might need to be renamed to specify this.  I also am absolutely not opposed to having more options.

# Does one have a favorite hazard? If so it would be the least annoying one, cause the least favorite hazard would go right to the insta-kill one (Electricity). --[[User:PastelP|PastelP]] ([[User talk:PastelP|talk]]) 15:03, November 25, 2022 (EST)
# This one feels kind of... iffy.  I'm not sure how one could really have a favorite hazard - I mean, they're ''all'' bad, right?  People would just gravitate towards whatever does the least damage and/or is the easiest to avoid.  Fire, water, and poison are also more-or-less the same thing.  Unless this poll is about people's favorite ways to kill Pikmin.  And that's simultaneously fantastic, and something that would probably never happen.  I'm open to changing my mind, but for right now I'll stick (rather lightly) to this corner.  -[[User:Burrhead2|Burrhead2]] ([[User talk:Burrhead2|talk]]) 20:04, November 29, 2022 (EST)
#* I was originally going to word this as "Which is the best hazard", to make it clear that the question is about game design, but poll ideas in the past that have featured "the best" have often had that replaced with "your favorite" because it makes it clearer that the poll is subjective. But considering these reactions, I think that using "the best" would result in a more useful poll. Do you think it would be better if it was reworded in that way? &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 21:59, November 29, 2022 (EST)

* I like the idea, but I think there's too many choices for one poll. Would it be alright to split the poll up? --[[User:PastelP|PastelP]] ([[User talk:PastelP|talk]]) 15:03, November 25, 2022 (EST)
** I think the number of choices is fine. But if it had to be split, it could be only bosses that were introduced in ''Pikmin 2'', or only bosses that appear in ''Pikmin 1'' and ''2''. {{User:Cheepy/sig}}
*** Perhaps, but those are pretty arbitrary ways to split it... I don't think there's any way that a split could be done in a non-arbitrary way. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 15:31, November 25, 2022 (EST)
**** The poll could be split up into bosses per area (but the Empress Bulblax kinda messes that up a bit), and there could be some sort of mystical fifth poll with the winners of the other four, to find out which is the best... or maybe not.  I don't know. <br> But I'm calling it right now, if this poll makes it, the winner's gonna be the Waterwraith. -[[User:Burrhead2|Burrhead2]] ([[User talk:Burrhead2|talk]]) 19:51, November 29, 2022 (EST)
***** A tournament-style poll series could be quite an interesting idea. To avoid having it take nearly a year, each poll could be 2 weeks long, with 3 or 4 initial rounds and one final round. But the grouping of bosses into initial rounds would be quite arbitrary and it would affect the outcome significantly. I'm not sure if there's a good way to do this. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 21:59, November 29, 2022 (EST)

# (Nominator:) This exact question has been asked before, in late 2018. However, I think it's worth asking it again, as ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'' and ''Pikmin Bloom'' have been more popular than previous games and so may change the poll results significantly. Ideally this question would be asked before the release of ''Pikmin 4'', though we could also ask it a few months after that game's release. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 22:37, December 2, 2022 (EST)

# (Nominator:) I've wondered what other people's opinions on this question are, so a Pikipedia poll is a great place to ask.
