LoL what kills me about this is that it always seems to take Nintendo 3-4 years minimum to make sequels or updates to their franchises (Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Star Fox, Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc.) and meanwhile you have companies that release updates or sequels to their major franchises on other systems every 1-2 years... Ratchet & Clank, Resistance, Gears, Motorstorm, Call of Duty, etc... all of these games have gotten or will be getting sequels within the year, yet we have to wait 3-4 years or more for big games from the biggest game developer/publisher in the world... what bullsh*t!
And most of the time they aren't even worth the wait... Mario Kart DD, Star Fox Assault come to mind

That way, their franchises still look fresh after 20 years. There has been 3 3d Marios in total. There has been 5 Call of Duty, 3 Halo, 5 Resident Evil, 6 Final Fantasy in less time.

The reason Mario has only popped up three times in 12 years in 3D is because he also heads up a half a dozen other franchises with his name on them and some sell even better than his platformers. Mario Kart, Mario Baseball, Mario Tennis, Mario Golf, Mario Soccer, Mario Party, Mario Basketball. He's never really out of the public eye at all.
