Prankster Comets in the Super Mario Galaxy games (RandomYoshi (talk), January 31, 2016)
| What do you think of the Prankster Comets in the two Super Mario Galaxy games? |
|---|
| I think they are a welcome addition to the regular gameplay. Replaying a mission again but under different conditions is always interesting. 41.48% (699 votes) |
| I like them, but I feel like they sometimes overstay their welcome. 28.25% (476 votes) |
| They just create another mission for me to finish in getting 100% completion. 11.45% (193 votes) |
| There are only a handful of them that are good. The rest are awful and adjust the difficulty in an unfair way. 11.63% (196 votes) |
| Prankster Comets are just filler content. The games would have been much better without them. Prioritize good level and mission design instead so there is no recycled content! 7.18% (121 votes) |
| Total Votes: 1,685 |
Corrin and Bayonetta (Stargazing (talk), January 24, 2016)
| Now that more Smash DLC is released, what is your opinion on the two newest fighters? |
|---|
| I find them both to be great additions to the roster, I will be buying them both when they come out. 26.15% (468 votes) |
| They're good choices, but nothing to hit home about. I will probably buy both. 20.84% (373 votes) |
| One character is a nice addition, but the other one isn't very great in my eyes. I will only be buying the one I like best. 14.02% (251 votes) |
| The choices aren't good. I might pick one of them up, but probably not. 6.09% (109 votes) |
| I will not be purchasing this DLC. The character choices are really bad. 9.27% (166 votes) |
| I don't have an opinion. 8.55% (153 votes) |
| There's new Smash DLC? 15.08% (270 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,156 |

Cloud in Smash Bros (Nysic (talk), January 3, 2016)
| Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII was recently confirmed to be a new fighter in Super Smash Bros! How do you feel about his inclusion? |
|---|
| This is amazing! I couldn't be happier for his inclusion! 20.94% (468 votes) |
| I'm glad that he's in, but it's nothing to go crazy about. 21.66% (484 votes) |
| He's a good choice, but I'd much rather have another character instead of him. 20.09% (449 votes) |
| I don't like his inclusion. There are so many more characters more worthy of a spot than him. 10.16% (227 votes) |
| This is terrible! Cloud never even appeared on a Nintendo console! He doesn't deserve the spot! 6.58% (147 votes) |
| Who's Cloud Strife? 20.58% (460 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,559 |
NSMB Debate (Andymii (talk), December 27, 2015)
| Do you consider the New Super Mario Bros. series to be a continuation of the original Super Mario Bros. series? |
|---|
| Yes! Because of the same play style, it's obviously a continuation, just "newer." 67.12% (1,631 votes) |
| Nope. From different artwork to different music, they are two separate series. 15.72% (382 votes) |
| Because all Mario games are so different from each other, I doubt either are valid series to begin with. 6.63% (161 votes) |
| I'm undecided. 10.53% (256 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,430 |

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash (Viper26 (talk), December 13, 2015)
| Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash has recently come out in North America and Europe. Will you be buying the game? |
|---|
| Absolutely! This is a must have game for the Wii U. 7.94% (140 votes) |
| Yes, I really like the courts and character selections this game has to offer, but it can be improved. 15.48% (273 votes) |
| No, this game doesn't look interesting to me. 30.61% (540 votes) |

Other genres (Andymii (talk), November 15, 2015)
| Which of these imaginary Mario genres would you consider buying? (select all that apply) |
|---|
| Open-world sandbox game. I'd love to explore the streets of Mushroom City (and the rest of the kingdom) for myself! 43.5% (1,673 votes) |
| Shooter. We really should have a sequel to Yoshi's Safari. 6.97% (268 votes) |
| Tower defense. It's a classic genre, and Mario should really get in the action! 8.63% (332 votes) |
| Survival horror. Sure, Mario isn't exactly famous for his scariness, but Nintendo has proven that they can be disturbing (Game Boy Camera, anyone?) 6.37% (245 votes) |
| Strategy. A Clash of Clans-esque Mario game would definitely be an interesting change of pace. 10.82% (416 votes) |
| Plumbing simulator. Because why not? 7.31% (281 votes) |
| Other 10.17% (391 votes) |
| Mario really doesn't fit any other genre. 6.24% (240 votes) |
| Total Votes: 3,846 |
Choosing a career (Andymii (talk), November 8, 2015)
| If you lived in the Mushroom Kingdom, needed a career, and Mario offered you one of his jobs, which one would you choose? |
|---|
| Plumber. There's no other experience like going into the pipe to fix them! 4.1% (114 votes) |
| Hero. I'd be interesting in constantly dying to save princesses from large turtles. 24.18% (673 votes) |
| Go-cart racer. Bombing and sending my friends off cliffs seems quite exciting, to say the least. 34.24% (953 votes) |
| Professional sports player. Sports seem so unrealistically fun in the Mushroom Kingdom! 7.47% (208 votes) |
| Demolition man. Destroying stuff really eases my nerves. 3.56% (99 votes) |
| Boxing referee. Judging boxers beat each other up just makes me feel so smug. 13.8% (70 votes) |
| Carpenter. Nothing's dull when there's an ape on site every day! 0.79% (22 votes) |
| I'll find a job in Hyrule. 17.39% (484 votes) |
| I'd go unemployed. 5.75% (160 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,783 |
Types of 3D Mario games (Andymii (talk), November 1, 2015)
| Recently, 3D Mario games have become very linear and influenced by the 2D games. Do you like this change, or do you favor exploration-based gameplay? |
|---|
| I support this change! Recent 3D Mario games merge the best of both 2D and 3D games, and the result is spectacular. 12.18% (293 votes) |
| I'm fine with the change, but I still want an exploration-based Mario game once in a while. 23.32% (561 votes) |
| They're both super fun! For every linear Mario game there should be an exploration-based one. 22.49% (541 votes) |
| Meh. Linear 3D Mario games are okay, but I would like Nintendo to mainly focus on exploration-based ones. 14.09% 339 votes) |
| I oppose this change! Linear 3D Mario games simply aren't that fun, and it's long past due for a Super Mario Sunshine 2, Super Mario Galaxy 3, etc. 14.13% (340 votes) |
| I trust Nintendo to make every game of excellent quality. Whatever direction they choose to go in will be the best. 13.8% (332 votes) |

New president of Nintendo (Andymii (talk), October 11, 2015)
| Tatsumi Kimishima has been announced to be the new global president of Nintendo. Are you satisfied with this decision? |
|---|
| Yes! As a previous head of Nintendo of America and with plenty of other marketing experience, he is the perfect choice. 27.4% (764 votes) |
| He's a fine leader, but other people (such as Reggie Fils-Aimé) could have been better fit for the job. 13.27% (370 votes) |
| He's a great asset for Nintendo, but he probably doesn't fit as the CEO. 3.91% (109 votes) |
| He'll be an okay president. There are better choices out there, but at least he won't destroy the company. 5.81% (162 votes) |
| He's a terrible choice! He doesn't have the necessary skills for such an important job, and Nintendo is going downhill after this. 1.08% (30 votes) |
| It doesn't matter. Nintendo will always be great, regardless of who's in charge! 48.53% (1353 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,788 |
Paper Jam (MrConcreteDonkey (talk), October 4, 2015)
| What are your thoughts on Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam? |
|---|
| It's a really cool concept and I'm sure it'll turn out great! 59.24% (1228 votes) |
| I would've much preferred a standalone Mario & Luigi/Paper Mario title, but it looks alright. 24.22% (502 votes) |
| I'm not impressed, but we don't know much about it yet, to be fair. 8.88% (184 votes) |
| It looks terrible. There's no way they can make this work. 2.27% (47 votes) |
| I'm indifferent towards it. 5.4% (112 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,073 |
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker DLC (Viper26 (talk), September 27, 2015)
| Do you think Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker should have a DLC pack with more courses? |
|---|
| Absolutely! This game should have more courses to be more enjoyable. 33.99% (673 votes) |
| Yes, as long as the courses are unique. 33.13% (656 votes) |
| No, this game is fine with the 75 courses it has. 11.16% (221 votes) |
| I don't care if the game gets a DLC pack. 21.72% (430 votes) |
| Total Votes: 1,980 |

Virtual Boy Games on the 3DS Virtual Console (Andymii (talk), September 6, 2015)
| Do you think Nintendo should rerelease Virtual Boy games on the 3DS Virtual Console program? |
|---|
| Of course! The 3DS would be a perfect way to experience these rare games with the original visual effects. 31.15% (672 votes) |
| Yes, but they should rerelease it on the Wii U Virtual Console as well. 11.78% (254 votes) |
| Sure, but only if they have a mode to turn off the uncomfortable red-and-black coloring! 34.45% (743 votes) |
| The Virtual Boy was such a flop that it would be bad for Nintendo to bring it back in such a way. 12.98% (280 votes) |
| No way! Virtual Boy games are all bad anyway. 9.64% (208 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,157 |
Price of Mario Kart/Smash Bros. DLC (MrConcreteDonkey (talk), August 31, 2015)
| What is your opinion on paid downloadable content pricing for Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U? |
|---|
| I think the prices are fine for both. 30.79% (693 votes) |
| I don't buy everything that's released, but I still think the pricing is mostly fair. 18.44% (415 votes) |
| Mario Kart DLC is overpriced, but Smash Bros. is fine. 3.29% (74 votes) |
| Smash Bros. DLC is overpriced, but Mario Kart is fine. 18.26% (411 votes) |
| The price should be cheaper for both. 7.64% (172 votes) |
| No, DLC for both should be free. 14.93% (336 votes) |
| I don't care. 6.66% (150 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,251 |
Super Mario Maker (Nysic (talk), August 24, 2015)
| How do you feel about Nintendo's attempt to make an official Mario level editor, Super Mario Maker? |
|---|
| I think they did an awesome job with it! This is a must have. 81.66% (2,053 votes) |
| It seems like a good game, but I'm not that interested in the concept of level editors. 12.37% (311 votes) |
| It's a good idea, but the way the game is designed turns me off. 2.27% (57 votes) |
| It's good, but I'd rather not buy it when there are free, unofficial level editors such as Super Mario Bros. X. 2.9% (73 votes) |
| I think that both the concept and the way it was designed are bad. 0.8% (20 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,514 |
Downloadable Content in Super Smash Bros. 4 (Palkia47 (talk), August 17, 2015)
| With the recent additions of Lucas, Roy, and Ryu, among many stages, songs, modes, and options, how do you feel about the DLC in Smash 4? |
|---|
| I love it! I've picked up all the DLC so far and eagerly wait for every batch to be released. 41.99% (928 votes) |
| I enjoy it, but I'm not a die-hard fan of the DLC. I'll buy what appeals to me. 43.26% (956 votes) |
| It's meh; I don't mind it, but I don’t really care for it. I'm much more focused on what’s already in the original game! 7.69% (170 votes) |
| It's terrible! Having to pay for DLC is annoying, and I think Smash Bros. could do without all the added features. 7.06% (156 votes) |
| Total Votes: 2,210 |
Nintendo games on phones (Andymii (talk), August 10, 2015)
| Do you think it would be wise for Nintendo to publish games for mobile phones? |
|---|
| Of course! A Mario game on my phone would be a dream-come-true, not to mention a brilliant marketing strategy! 17.05% (500 votes) |
| Sure, but not too many; I still want a majority of Nintendo's games to stay on their own consoles. 44.82% (1,314 votes) |
| Nah, the 3DS and Wii U are perfectly good hardware. 15.21% (446 votes) |
| No way! That would completely ruin Nintendo's reputation. 9.82% (288 votes) |
| I don't care. Nintendo games are fun everywhere! 13.1% (384 votes) |
