Paper Mario is the opposite problem. It keeps selling 1-2 million+ steadily regardless of how they change it. So they view that as positive reinforcement that it's okay to do this non-RPG crap with no story and no unique characters or partners or incentive to battle and gain experience/level up. I kind of WISH Sticker Star had flopped, so maybe they'd reevaluate Miyamoto's meddling advice to keep it in the Mushroom Kingdom where only Toads can be your friend. |
Super Paper Mario was a spin-off (and a great game) so it doesn't count. And people buyed Sticker Stars because they didn't want to give up hope for it. Color Splash won't have that hope to push it in sales, which is why I think it'll flop terribly and bury this great franchise forever.
