# 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. Maybe one day in the distant future, when unused P3 content is much better understood, and more popular. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 07:38, 30 January 2017 (EST)

==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.

# (Nominator:) I noticed that the Super Mario Wiki has polls that are much more specific than ours with much more detailed possible answers. It's hard for us to have very specific polls since we have far less content, but we can still try some polls with more complex answers like this, for more variation in the styles of poll. The re-releases of the ''Pikmin'' series is a good option for this. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 18:32, August 21, 2021 (EDT)
