I voted ‘other’ so I could join in the vote for none! Why would I ever want a game series taken away from me. If you don’t like a character why not just avoid the game?
If I had to choose a character or franchise to be replaced by something new and fresh it would be Pokemon. Every new version (or color) is a pass for me…don’t get me wrong, I loved it back in the beginning with red and green…
They should kill off Luigi and have a game where Mario goes totally apeshit Agent 47 style on all of Bowser’s minions and henchmen before dispatching of the big man in the worst way possible…
only to find out it was all a dream he had while in a coma. 🙂
Miis. Seriously Nintendo, one generation of those was enough. Either make some other avatar system or just stop putting them in crappy games like Pilotwings Resort. <_<
I wouldn’t kill off Pokemon entirely…I would love to get some more original creatures though.
@MrMiyamoto: If you’re going to rag on Nintendo about Miis, then you gotta rag on Microsoft and Sony as well for having similar things to Miis. Can’t just pick on one company when others are doing it…although I do agree that some better games are needed using Miis….maybe they could do something like the Sims on Whu-Hu Island? 😀
The whole Nintendo gaming brand should be killed off. Nintendo has ment nothing to me since the N64. the Wii is nothing but a overpriced kid toy and the WiiU will be over hyped by fantards old people & soccer moms. No real gamer would be cought died with a Wii or WiiU (lol at WiiU by the way sounds like pii-you in like what stinks nintendo) Sony & Micosoft 4 ever.
Seriously, is your life so empty that you spend your time visiting fansites of companies that mean nothing to you, just to troll like a snotty ten year old?
“Real gamers” play good games on any system without fear of peer pressure–And Wii’s had plenty of great games. You’re pathetic.
I’d say Samus. Metroid has been eating up all the spotlight (even with lackluster sales) that would/could be given to franchises like StarFox and F-Zero.
Characters? I don’t really care about those as much as the franchises themselves buddy.
…. And my answer is: None. I want more franchise work NOW. We need some revitalizing in Nintendo franchises, immediately..
F-Zero
Metroid
StarFox
Donkey Kong
Pokemon *no more Mystery Dungeon and other action titles please*
Earthbound
Fire Emblem
And yeah, Zelda needs to take a break… Aonuma needs to get his creative ideas into another game franchise….
Adding to this is my support for new franchises…
Quite frankly, I want some sequels of Rare games to come to Nintendo… New Perfect Dark and Jet Force Gemini would be nice. (As long as they can beat Perfect Dark Zero)
To Aikun2012… you do know that Pokemon has had as many good games now as it ever had? It’s almost always been one main game per console, and even then Pokemon Black and White shook up the formula.
And well, the Donkey Kong’s already returned with Donkey Kong Country Returns.
Pokemon needs to die. The the number just keeps getting larger, when I think the series should have died off after Gold and Silver. I may be like this since I was growing up when the Red and Blue first came out, but still. Once Pokemon hits 1000 (if not already), it’ll be a sad day.
VEGETA, what does you scouter say about Nintendo’s Pokemon Level?
ITS OVER 9000! “Crushes Scouter”
Seriously though, I could see this kind of thing happening.
And why Falcon? He’s the most hilarious smasher ever created. And that would mean no more FALCON PUNCH
>_<
My character pick would have to be Slippy
I'm tired of saving him Over 900 times per level!
Mattiac
Waluigi, Tingle, Navi, Bowser and Ganon!
Collin
ehm…none?
Amy
How about none?:P
Richard
None. They’ve got few enough games coming out right now as it is! 🙂
El Demonio
I voted Kirby as he annoys the living daylights out of me, but, there are definitely over a hundred Pokemon species I wish would go extinct…
Yellow Bear
slippy the freaking frog
Cass
TOAD!!!
chibikage89
They should kill off Sonic so they can resurrect him as one of there own. Hey you never said it had to be a Nintendo character.
Andrew
None.
Ben
Nobody.
Russ

Mohan
I’m with Collin, none!
Harrison
No one. But, if I had to pick one, I’d have to say at least the more generic of the 400+ Pokemon out there. Just a thought.
JDK
None!
Zip, Zero, Nada, Nil!
ModestMrGreen
Kill Krystal from Star Fox, please. 😀
John from Leicester, United Kingdom
Tingle. He’s the only one.
Diagoras Of Thebes
Zelda.
I expect a lot of hate for this, but I feel it’s time for the Zelda franchise to take a break, and get a break so it can get its groove back.
Diagoras Of Thebes
And I didn’t even check my grammar. Great.

I’m not voting…there’s no ‘none’ option.
Artefacto
Ninguno.
Nin3DS
Depends what you mean. Series? None. Characters? Goodbye Tingle and Bowser Jr!

gojiguy
what a limited list to pick from…
I’d say Samus. Metroid has been eating up all the spotlight (even with lackluster sales) that would/could be given to franchises like StarFox and F-Zero.
Lord Lemmy
None! Absolutely none! Not even the ones who are slightly more annoying, or have gone down tubes.
Abdulla
Kristel from star fox adventures..Eff her
The_old_man_In_the_cave
Tingle.
Richard
I really can’t believe how many folks have voted for Nintendo to axe their biggest moneymaker. Pokemon pays the rent, people! 🙂

Pokemon belongs to GameFreak. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Duke
None. All three are excellent.
EdEN
None… why would they have to?
Duke
But the new Black/White pkmn suck.

The Adza
I didn’t even think of Zelda, but it would make a good story if she died in game. She could always come back in another game anyway.
Killed off for good though? My vote goes to none. No one. Well, maybe Cranky Kong.
tlomax3927
For characters: Navi (keep Midna!) and Tingle
For franchises: Make new stories for Zelda and Mario.
Hitokiri_Ace
Pikmin.
ghettoska
Haha pikmin is pretty much killed off anyway. Last one came out almost eight years ago. I know they are working on a new one but still…
And never played the earthbound/mother franchise so I would go with that one to die
Sal
Baby Mario, Luigi, peach, daisy, bowser and donkey kong jr… Sega is a different story
Mattiac
PS. Bowser Jr. too!
-_Q
So much Tingle and Bowser Jr. hate.
I love Tingle and Bowser Jr.
I love you guys.
Cowmanodoom
Tingle, Birdo, and Waluigi…
I… absolutely… DESPISE them!
Although Tingle can be kind of funny sometimes, even if it’s just because of how dumb and totally insane he is.
WesFX
If I had to pick a character to never see again, then I’d go with Captain Falcon. You barely see him anyway in “his” games.
