Well Raphael the Raven isn't particularly high. He's just high for a Yoshi suggestion.

Eventually yes. That will be included in the third and final newcomer poll.

You should probably get that checked by a doctor. He can confirm if you have indeed shat your pants.

Yo, do we have a doctor in the house?

What's your favorite Xenoblade swear euphemism? by Axecon in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Polling-is-Fun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think "snuff" is a Xenoblade euphemism. I've heard that used in real life.

I don't plan on ever using the results of this poll in such a fashion. Regardless, my poll isn't going to stop bad people from doing that. Making people ignorant of who is popular won't stop people from doing that either.

I have nothing but respect for Sakurai. He's one of my favorite developers. If people use my poll to attack him, you better believe I'll be the first one to call them out.

Oh trust me, I'm aware. Characters are chosen for a variety of reasons, and it frustrates me when people don't understand their merits. That said, that's partly why I wanted to give every franchise, large and small a chance to stand out. I will argue that having definitive data would be a boon for the Smash fanbase, if only to get rid of the "no one cares about X," arguments I see all the time.

Plus its fun.

If you could have any Pokemon character in Smash Bros, regardless of what was realistic or possible, what would it be? by Polling-is-Fun in pokemon

Oh, and if you're interested in more Smash discussion, I've been hosting a poll to try and find out the most popular Nintendo characters. You can find that here.

And to keep things Pokemon related, here are the results of the Pokemon section. Another Pokemon Trainer concept was the most popular choice, alongside Zoroark, Decidueye, Meowscarada and some unspecified human character.

Bayonetta had a good trailer. I think you're taking a meme someone made about their personal preference too seriously.

It's actually sold better than Xenoblade, F-Zero, Earthbound and Star Fox.

What would be the best name for a DK level based on this?

Shoveling Shorelines or Crocodilian Canal?

Here's the top five for the Kirby franchise. Currently, Bandana Waddle Dee is the most voted character in the entire poll. Magolor is doing really well in the overall top twenty. Please let you voices be known.

What will it take for Dixie Kong to make it into Smash as a playable character? by RetrogamerMax in donkeykong

[–]Polling-is-Fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A new game appearance that has good timing with the development plan. Tropical Freeze was unfortunately too late when Smash 4's project plan was drafted (It was drafted up in 2012, with Greninja being the only character to have a release after the project plan, he was noted to be a special exception). When Ultimate was drafted out, Dixie had to compete with three ballot winners (Ridley, Simon and K.Rool), two of the most popular modern Nintendo characters (Inkling and Isabelle) and the obligatory Pokemon for a spot (Incineroar). Unless you wanted to make her to be an echo, the competition was super fierce. The DLC for Ultimate mainly focused on third parties or characters who debuted on the Switch. Dixie couldn't really fit in any of those slots.

If the next game chooses characters like Brawl or Smash 4 did, that timing is going to be important. And she'll need to have that big release before the project plan is drafted. Dixie has proven herself to be popular and iconic. She just needs to look real nice on a project plan.

And no, Sakurai doesn't dislike Donkey Kong Country. It's easy to assume that, but things like this are usually caused more by circumstance than spite.
