* I feel like that people aren't going to remember how many days they completed ''Pikmin'' in their first run... Maybe a better poll would be asking about the fewest days that they completed ''Pikmin'' in? IMO, a low-day run makes more of an impact than their first run. {{User:PikFan23/sig}} 20:07, 18 July 2015 (EDT)
** I don't know... Casual players (I assume the vast majority) won't really care for low-day runs. I've played through ''Pikmin'' several times, but I still remember my first time: 23 days. I'd say the first time really sticks with you, but I'm all ears for different opinions. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 08:12, 19 July 2015 (EDT)
*** Hmm... Yeah, most probably won't be going for a low-day run. Looking at the stats for ''Pikmin 3'', not a whole lot of people got all fruit, and even then, those who did took like 40-50 days. (Also, regarding the marsh thing, I don't know how it disappeared...? I don't even remember doing anything to it...) {{User:PikFan23/sig}} 04:26, 20 July 2015 (EDT)
* I first played Pikmin after the sequel, so my first record was fairly impressive. My first run of Pikmin 2, on the other hand... look, the instruction manual didn't make it clear the log-things were bridges, OK?

* Well, you've got basically until E3, at the latest, if my memory that "the game is basically ready" or something along those lines is true. We might see a Nintendo Direct and see it earlier, or they might pull a Detective Pikachu and announce it out of the blue. Depending on how long polls last, I don't see this one surviving long.

*Im pretty confident that Pikmin 4 will be announced before this poll goes up, but if it doesn't, I think the chance to have it as a poll would still be good. Also 3DS and New 3DS should stay seperate as they would be two very different games in design/implementation due to the New 3DS's faster processing speed.[[User:GoldenTriforce|GoldenTriforce]] ([[User talk:GoldenTriforce|talk]]) 18:02, 5 February 2016 (EST)

*Even if Nintendo reveals the console during the poll's lifespan, I don't think that invalidates the poll. For starters, I think this is something fans really want to be vocal about. If in the end, one week after the poll is up, Nintendo reveals that the next game's platform will actually be mobile devices (''knock on wood''), the question still stands: "what platform would you LIKE it to be on?" &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 07:27, 30 January 2017 (EST)

# Not many fans will know about the unused features. Of course, this can help bring attention to them, but the fans's feelings will still be limited regardless. Then, there's the fact that we still don't know much about the unused content and mechanics. There's still a lot left to discover right now, and even the contents in this list aren't entirely known. The "false" Candypop Bud might just be how the Candypop Bud works internally, if it is not set up properly, as opposed to being a new object that was meant to kill your Pikmin. The Bubble Blowhog could just be a new version of the plain old Watery Blowhog. The poison geyser is already an old thing, so I can't see how that one would be exciting whatsoever. I'm just not feeling this poll at all.

* I like this idea. This is the first time (as I know of) that the poll has been based off the wiki, and not the games, which does add more variety. It may even help us make better April Fool's jokes by reflecting back on old ones. My only opposition is I think only editors and frequent readers of the wiki (which is pretty hard to measure) will probably vote or understand what it even is. However, it might encourage readers to actually read April Fool's articles, and then they might vote. Still, I'm not sure if readers will care enough to read all the articles at once just to vote. Regardless, I would like this happen and it would be fun to see! &mdash [[User:CrazyCow|CrazyCow]] 21:03, 7 April 2019 (EDT)

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.

==So far, all of the main series ''Pikmin'' games have been re-released on a later console. How do you feel about this?==
* I think the re-releases are great and that ''Pikmin'' games should be re-released on more consoles.
* I think the re-releases that already exist are good and there doesn't need to be more of them.
* I like the re-releases, but Nintendo should be prioritizing new games, even if it means there are fewer total ''Pikmin'' games.
* I don't like the re-releases; the original games are good enough.

# I think a question like this is too vague for a simple poll. To one person, ''enemy A'' may not be a nuisance, but to another, ''enemy A'' may be a nuisance. Then, some enemies are annoying for different reasons; the Sheargrubs are annoying because they stop you from carrying back fruit, and the Flighty Joustmites are annoying because they are ~awkward to defeat(?), so it's hard to compare them fully and fairly. Then there's the issue of what enemies would be here? There's '''a lot''' of enemies that could be counted as annoying (not including bosses).

** It's definitely not bad; most of these enemies can be pretty irritating. I do think the Dessicated Skitter Leaf is only a big pain in deathless runs, but its camouflage definitely justifies it here regardless of the playthrough type. Why is the Flighty Joustmite on here, though? I've heard maybe one or two content creators voice their distaste for it, but to me it's literally just a Joustmite with wings, but arguably easier due to its incapacitation when its proboscis gets stuck in the ground; wait for that to happen and throw some Pikmin at its backside, the end. That placement makes very little sense to me.<br>On the topic of adding more, do you think it'd be fair to add the Mysterious Life Form? The fact that it gives chase can make it kind of pesky (though I suppose it's possible any annoyance it might bring is overshadowed by the terror it can cause). How about Phosbat Pods? I don't personally have any issues with them, but maybe their repetitive enemy spawning might be thought of that way... eh, on second thought, probably not. I'd say the Puffy Blowhog can be kind of irritating, but it's not nearly as bad as it is in the first game, so I don't think it needs to be on there. The last two I might think about considering are the Swooping Snitchbug (though, like the Puffy Blowhog, it's much worse in 1 due to its ability to wander) and the Waddlepus, as they both can disjoint your squad a bit, but otherwise, I think the list is fine. That was just me going through the list of all enemies in that game to check for possibilities; do you have anything to say on those? <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 18:37, October 5, 2024 (EDT)
* I think this poll runs into the issue of too many possible options, as in my opinion as Pikmin 3's enemy cast is filled with annoying foes. From ones that are hard to hit, to ones with utterly unfairly fast shake-offs, there's a lot to go around. Some ones that I'd nominate are the Waddlepus, Puffy Blowhog, Water Dumple, Medusal Slurker, and Toady Bloyster, and if all those are included, the number of options inflates drastically. There's also the issue of this being a very subjective topic; one that I don't think really works with Pikipedia's poll format. -[[User:Gulliblepikmin|Gulliblepikmin]] 19:28, October 5, 2024 (EDT)
** That's fair, it is quite subjective. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 23:20, October 5, 2024 (EDT)
** Yeah; I can see how this question doesn't really work as a poll. It's more suited for a discussion. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 01:27, October 6, 2024 (EDT)

# Asking any multiple choice question with blowhogs (family) is a bad idea, becuce there's some types that does/doesn't count for various Reasons, like the [[Pikmin Adventure enemies#blowhog|Blowhog (species)]] only being in Pikmin adventure and not blowing something, the [[Pikmin Adventure enemies#Telescoping Pumphog|Telescoping Pumphog]] not having "blowhog" in their name, and the [[Tusked Blowhog]] not being in the Blowhog family.

# I’ve had to switch to the opposition. [[Pikmin 4]] introduced about a bajillion Blowhog varieties, ruining this poll. I still like the concept, but with the addition of the [[Titan Blowhog]], the taxonomically impossible [[Tusked Blowhog]], and the frigid trio of the [[Snowy Blowhog]], [[Icy Blowhog]] and [[Blizzarding Blowhog]], the [[Blowhog family]] has become a lot less cool, and especially a lot more cold. *laugh track* &mdash; [[User:Aostrele|'''Aostrele''']]<sub>[[User talk:Aostrele|''(talk)'']]</sub> 9:50, January 11, 2025 (GMT)

* no one cares about blowlets - [[User:Aostrele|Aostrele]] 23:57, January 27, 2023 (EST)
* Asking about the appearance of the Blowhogs is an interesting idea to make the poll more unique, but I'm not sure if this group of enemies is the best for this type of question. Is there any other feature of the Blowhogs that would work in a poll question? &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 00:07, January 28, 2023 (EST)
** which is the ugliest - [[User:Aostrele|Aostrele]] 04:52, January 29, 2023 (EST)
**Could be about what kind of blowhog (terrestrial or airborne), which attack style (fluid or air), or even color scheme. {{User:Cheepy/sig}}
**Maybe something like "Which Blowhog do you find the most fun to fight", or along the lines of how memorable they are. &mdash; '''[[User:Chazmatron|Chazmatron, signing off!]]''' [[User talk:Chazmatron|(TALK)]] 23:39, 20 March, 2025 (GMT)

# A poll about final bosses would be too much of a spoiler for the Main Page, and considering 1 of the final bosses is a space dog, it would very likely get the most votes. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 05:25, September 30, 2024 (EDT)
# I agree with Soprano. Although spoilers is less of a concern to me, asking people a question that can be so easily predictable (how many people do YOU know that have a spider/pile of fool’s gold as a pet?) seems like a waste of a poll. &mdash; [[User:Aostrele|'''Aostrele''']]<sub>[[User talk:Aostrele|''(talk)'']]</sub> 9:42, January 11, 2025 (GMT)

# (Nominator:) Simple poll asking a simple question. It's not really been done before and it is spring season, so the series is fitting for this month.

* Other treasure series could work, though ones with a lot of entries and ones that appear in both ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 4'' should be avoided: so the [[Sweet Tooth Series]] would be difficult, as it's present in both games; the [[Soulful Musician Series]] would be too long (13 unique treasures). All of the ''Pikmin 2'' treasures that have regional differences will be awkward to implement as well. The more "bundle-like" treasure series aren't the best for this either, like the [[Memory Fragment Series]], [[Three Generations Series]], [[Assembled Courage Series]] etc. &mdash; '''[[User:Chazmatron|Chazmatron, signing off!]]''' [[User talk:Chazmatron|(TALK)]] 23:27, March 20, 2025 (GMT)
* I like the idea of polls about favorite treasures in series, but I don't think this is a good series for this type of poll. This is because all of its treasures are also fruits in ''Pikmin 3'', so someone could answer based on how the treasures appear in ''Pikmin 3'' as well as in ''Pikmin 4''. There are a few series though that don't have fruits and also meet the other requirements you say, so polls about those series could work. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 05:56, September 21, 2025 (EDT)

# (Nominator:) ''Pikmin 4'' is often considered easy; will a harder difficulty cause people to replay the game? [[User:PikminLover4587|PikminLover4587]] ([[User talk:PikminLover4587|talk]]) 16:03, October 23, 2025 (EDT)
# I think this is a good question to gauge the current popularity of this mode, and it's pretty relevant too. I don't know if a "maybe" option would be a good idea, though, because it's kind of too general and takes away from the statistic of how many people care about playing this mode, at least in my opinion. Besides, it asks "do you ''plan'' to", so someone could easily say yes and then change their mind and not actually play it, or vice versa. Perhaps it could be replaced with an "I don't have ''Pikmin 4'' but I want to do x", so that way people who don't can vote, but I don't know if we often have options for not having the game for other polls. Overall, I like the idea! <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 18:20, October 23, 2025 (EDT)
