Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nintendo has made 71 Brand new Franchises Since 2001

Sakura Samurai and Jump Superstars are Nintendo published! Looking at the list, they've actually done a good job. They just need to improve the average quality. I can see some gems on the list though.

Only about 10% I'd say.


Worth what?



The people are saying that because these IPs can't reach the big success and greatness of the Mario and Zelda franchises for example. Because of that the people will continue to say things like that but of course to create a brand that is such as big as Mario is pretty much impossible. I mean: If you like him or not you know him because everybody knows him...



I don't hate Microsoft, I don't hate PC,
I don't prefer Sony, I don't prefer Nintendo.
...Ok, I love Nintendo but this is something about tolerance, ok?

I'm a gamer with one of the greatest hobbies and I want to share this greatness with everyone.

For comparison, Sony Computer Entertainment has published 143 brand new franchises since 2001!

My source is wikipedia and I'm sure I made some mistakes, but whatever, you get the whole idea. =P

Many of these games don't recieve near the amount of hype a lot of these Sony and MS titles recieve, so thus they don't exist in the eyes of many of these "hardcore" gamers who thrive on hype..

And they would have sold better if they just put Mario on the box.

Comparing them to MS isn't an apples to apples comparison because when you are new in the market, everything you publishbh is a new IP.

Just like people are pointing out with the Nintendo list, how many of these are "worth it"?

The number is pretty impressive... Too bad the same thing cannot be said for some of those games! I mean, Bonsai Barber? Fossil Fighters? Steel Diver? Those aren't spectacular games or anything!


I think you already know this or rather realized this, but the point is they do indeed create new IPs or are open to new IPs. I also get tired of all the whining that they are only Mario and Zelda, or even Pokemon, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Kirby...wait a second if I stopped there it would be impressive. Some of the most iconic franchises. People need to find something new to gripe about. They do try new things. Publishing Bayonetta 2 is...um...quite a departure. While not a new franchise, nor their franchise, they are open to the risqué. It's a shame their tent pole IPs destroy most other IPs in terms of quality and imagination.
