Why does the poll assume that owning a 3DS means you might buy it despite having no interest in the game itself?

Because people are fickle.

but i think your option is "Probably not, I do own a 3DS, but I'm not a Pokemon fan"

Shows that you have no interest.

I don't think I'm going to.
I just got the 7th badge on Pokemon Black yesterday and I have yet to get past the first town in Pokemon Sun. Too bad the only option for me is "I own a 3DS but i'm not a pokemon fan". I rode my bike to Gamestop for the Marshadow code.

After I beat Black, i'm going to jump ahead to Pokemon Black 2. I will probably at some point play Sun since I do have it.

I would rather play Cold steel 1 and 2, Digimon Cyber sleuth, and Deseiga 4.

Black 2 is 100x better than the last few Pokemon games released

"Probably not, I do own a 3DS, but I'm not a Pokemon fan"

There's an option for owning a 3DS but not wanting to buy it. Am I missing something? What exactly is the problem?

The problem is there's no option for "I like pokemon but I'm not going to buy this game"

It implies that even if you don't like Pokemon you still might buy a Pokemon game just because you have a 3DS. Probably not is not a solid no.

Right but it's basically the same thing, and you clearly fall in that category. They're obviously not going to put an option for every possibility, otherwise we'd have things like "No, I don't even own a 3DS, and I won't buy one for this, but if I do buy one then probably as I am a bit of a Pokemon fan."

So why have qualifiers at all? If it's a simple yes or no question then make the options Yes or No.
