Koolooh-limpah! Haters gonna hate, but at least we know there will always be a select few enlightened souls with a profound fondness for Tingle deep in their hearts. Here's hoping we'll be getting an original Tingle 3DS game. Or at the very least, his 2nd DS outing as a downloadable e-Shop title.

Tingle (Wind Waker) is awsome. The one from Majora's Mask is ok.

And here we can see the typical Tingle fan: TA-DAAAAH!

As expected, few people really hate Pikmin, but you can find Waluigi, Tingle and Birdo in almost every list of the worst videogame characters:

I wondered why Malstrom didn't include Birdo in his list, so I checked its birth date, it's 1987, Birdo is an offspring of "old" Nintendo, so in Malstrom's eyes, it can't be bad.

The Pikmin are awesome! How could anyone not like them... it's like hating puppies.

The other characters mentioned I might not outright defend (particularly Waluigi), but at least none of them are as annoying as Malstrom.

Maybe if we could persuade him about this, he would deduce he's a foul spawn of evil "new" Nintendo too and disappear in an angry puff of smoke.

Pikmin and Olimar are both great!

When Pikmin 3 finally comes out in HD for the Wii U...his mind will be changed LOL

lol how can you hate a Nintendo character. but then say Nintendo needs new Ips without new characters we would not have new games .

im sorry but I completely disagree under these circumstances .

I think some one is cruising for a bruis'n .

LOL, if Miyamoto invented hot cakes, Malstrom would say hot cakes suck and people actually want stale cakes.   

This said, Waluigi and Tingle suck, Pikmin don't, but Birdo does, despite coming from Malstrom's beloved Ninty Golden Age. It looks like Malstrom lost his mind by now, he can still be reasonable and intelligent too when his obsessions aren't involved, when they are he can still say true and sensible things, but just by sheer chance, or by pure mechanical necessity, like a broken clock being right twice a day.

Fuck off Malstrom, you have no idea what you're talking about.

Tingle and Pikmin are awesome. Well Waluigi really sucks but I have gotten used to him now. So STFU.
