Fetty Wap has a pretty synth on his track Trap Queen, it starts at 00:10:

I tried to get something similar to that, but this is what I get on Massive:

Here's my preset:

I think it has a "old retro videogame" feeling on the synth, but I can't get anything closer than this :S

Could anyone help me with that?

You don't need any fancy wavetables in Massive, its square wave will do. Set osc1 to a square, turn the filter off. Set an LFO to a square, set its rate pretty high (4-5 o clock). Now we're gonna make it modulate the pitch of osc1 by an octave. Since the LFO's in Massive are bipolar, that means you set it to modulate osc1's pitch by 6 semitones, then pitch osc1 up by 6 semitones. This modulates osc1 by one octave while keeping the absolute pitch on the right notes. Finally, set the amp envelope to have a short decay, add some delay and reverb, and you're there!
