Topic: Nintendo franchises you're not a fan of?

You just reminded me about Pikmin. I can't get into that franchise at all.

As far as whole franchises go, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, and Pikmin.

Overall I find it hard to see the appeal of Donkey Kong Country (as well as Returns and TF) and most Yoshi games, but mostly I just don't like Yoshi or any Kongs/Kremlings simply as characters.

Pikmin just really has never been interesting to me, though I suppose Pikmin 3 is alright. But overall it just doesn't click well with me.

Hmm, I haven't played Earthbound so it may be the first one. I really like almost all the Nintendo franchises.

EDIT: Oh! The only franchise I remember I don't like is Nintendogs, it's just not my type of game.

Mario games (few exceptions mario kart etc) and Smash bro's.

Mario Kart (I like F-Zero and Waverace. And the original Super Mario Kart and I like All Stars Racing Transformed as well).

Pikmin

Most of the Wii X games. (I didn't mind Sports Resort).

Nintendogs (I don't doubt it is better than its competition but it is not something I am interested in.)

Animal Crossing (Was fun once the original Gamecube one).

Pikmin, not saying it's bad, but I think the day cycle should be longer, because it gets really daunting. Haven't played a Metroid game, but I don't think they look interesting to me

Why not?

Nintendogs and the Mario sports games don't interest me. The only exception I've found was Power Tennis.

along with the casual games that shouldn't even be bothered to mentioned. I just started Pikmin 3 so I will have an opinion on that soon.

Mario Party, Wii Party, Warioware - 90% of all party games/minigame collections really
Smash Bros - I prefer Pokken & Tatsunoko vs Capcom type fighting

I haven't played games like Animal Crossing, Nintendogs and Pikmin, so I can't comment on those.

I have been a big fan of Mario, Zelda, Yoshi, DK, and just about everything Nintendo throws at us for years, but I have never got into Pokémon. I can't explain why. Even to this day it's a bit annoying when I look at Smash that is full of the best franchises I know of but then has Pokémon as pretty much the most represented of the bunch. I understand why since it's so popular, but it's just not my cup of tea I guess.

easy... Pikmin

everybody keeps telling me Pikmin is awesome and yarayarayara

but in the end, I just cannot sit down and play it

I love dk, Mario, Zelda, pokemon, Metroid, I even found kinda fun nintendogs... but... pikmin.. just...no..

@derek_combatir But Pikmin is awesome and yarayarayara! Seriously I loved Pikmin 3.

@Jahir hahahaha you sound like... everyone around me .__.
I did play it, both pikmin 1 and 2, but there was... no magic ... XD (wasn't able to finish them, just..no)

Another franchise I forgot is Mario Baseball, I love tennis, golf and even strikers (I love baseball but somehow Mario baseball was just not right...)

I remember playing the first one and I didn't find it that good too. But recently I played Pikmin 3 and instantly fell in love with it, the funny thing is that it may be one of the greatest experiencies I've had because it has a lot of soul. You should try it someday!

Kirby sadly. I haven't played many of his games but I find them slow. I also find the power up system to be confusing. Doesn't stop me from playing them when I get a chance, and the SNES VC golf Kirby game is addicting as hell. But I wouldn't call myself a fan of the series.

Animal Crossing. Never touched New leaf since I played it about months ago. Can't understand the objective of the game.

@Jahir actually.. I have the game... I got it thanks to the Mario kart promotion (and because all the other titles were already on mi wii u)

my friends play it, and i'm just like "i don't get it..." and start playing something on the 3ds...

maybe I should give a try... before I get my hands on my 3ds (playing theatrhythm) or hyrule warriors (basically my wii u will become a hyrule warriors playing console... until bayonetta)

Pokémon
I don't really enjoy Pokémon anymore, I still like the first 2-3 generations though.

Super Smash Bros.
I'm not into fighting games, although I play SSB at a friend's house occasionally, I don't enjoy the games enough to buy them myself.

All of the Mario series
