Someone else who acknowledges that 'A Woman" is a dope song? That's some pretty top tier taste there, Osby.
First I used one poll. Which here:
Yes a perfect time to tease dlc two of elderick but they didn’t
...First I used one poll. Which here:
Secondly I stated that if your gonna say one way or another one of those two was changed for promotion reasons. It makes no sense for either. None of their games come out when they would.
Not to mention that it makes no sense to suggest joker to Sakurai from a recent game then bring up this man from years ago. Dlc more then likely is gonna be recent charcters or ones with big requests from the ballot and as we can see slime ranked higher. So why would they suggest and add elderick?

I wouldn’t go that far.
It could also mean that they weren't planning on revealing any DLC fighters until later.
I think you mean in a Japanese character poll, not the Japanese character poll.
promotion reasons for TGA, not for the stuff they're promoting - if P5 Switch is really coming, then it'll probably release around the same time as DQ11S anyway
because DQ3 is the FF7 of the series in terms of popularity, to the point where its release literally resulted in mass absenteeism from schools, like with halo 3 in the west
Hot take, that palace theme isnt that great
whoops
This poll isn’t most wanted, it’s most expected. That’s why Rex is at the top, lots of casuals expected Rex.First I used one poll. Which here:

Most people here are still pretty confident in his chances.
Lol stupid auto correct

These dudes really put Goku and Raiden in top 20 most expected ?
I would compare the inputs to Street Fighter but on a keyboard.
I don't see a vote count, that's a rather important thing to leave out, especially if ****ing Sans gets in the top 10First I used one poll. Which here:

Not much has changed really.
Except she wasn’t lol. Sakurai said she was top 4 in France and the most feasible character everywhere else
I'm still waiting for a new Jak and Daxter game.

PlayStation, yes. Sony, probably no.
Sly Cooper was my childhood.
Does Metal Gear count?
For once I have to agree with Shiny. Fan polls are incredibly biased. Read this excerpt from my own The Case for Minecraft Steve and the "Smash Bubble" Effect for elaboration as to why this is so:
There doesn't need to be a dozen debates about who's popular and who isn't when we have tons of objective data. Popularity isn't an opinion.
While the contribution of these focused fans isn't to be ignored, as evidenced by K. Rool's immense Ballot presence in part due to the Kutthroat's Ballot Campaign and Sakurai's statements on Ridley and Geno, a flaw of the fanbase at large is a general insistence that those within the Smash Bubble are the only Smash Bros. fans and that by not catering to them specifically, Nintendo is making a mistake. This sentiment completely ignores other fanbases outside of the core fanbase which gave us picks such as Isabelle and Simon Belmont.
Every Smash fan poll cited majorly falls within the Smash Bubble because those within the Smash Bubble are most inclined to vote on polls like these. Granted, even the official Smash Ballot itself falls prey to this, and indeed those within the Smash Bubble would be much more inclined to vote in an official poll like this, but any bias within it is made up for by the Law of Large Numbers, defined as:
The official nature of the poll and the advertising conducted for it extended the reach of the poll to even casual fans, which is why it's so important to establish this disconnect. The largest, most recent Smash fan poll as of right now is the Reddit Smash Ultimate Tourney randomized poll, with over 50,000 votes. In comparison, the Smash Ballot collected 1.8 million votes (360 times more votes), making it much closer to the wants of the entire Smash Bros. fanbase, hence why picks like Simon Belmont can float by the core fanbase largely undetected.
If a larger reddit fan poll was able to attract people outside of Reddit's r/SmashBros, then a poll as massive as the official Ballot would be able to attract people from all over, giving a skew towards the silent majority, as anyone could vote on it, even people outside of the regular Nintendo or Smash Bros. fanbase.
You're ignoring his original point though. Fan polls can't be trusted, and shouldn't be used as evidence for anything else other than popularity within the core fanbase.
gow rocks
I've been holding off on touching my PS3 for too damn long and I don't have enough games from various franchises to say anything on that. Most of my older Playstation experiences were movie tie-in games. From what I've seen I might have enjoyed MediEvil but not much else. I DO enjoy Yakuza though, and I'm not sure if it's even been on anything BUT the playstation until recently
