Ok Final Fan gets what im trying to say. Mario is a huuuge icon. I loved him when i was little and i like the guy today. But the mario I like is on the Snes and n64. He did his part now let someone else take the plate let alone have a chance. Other then Kirby, Rare's Banjo Kazooey and Donkey Kong (which also spawned off of mario, or you can argue the other way around) there really have been no credible platformers that have sold well on a nintendo system. Sure gamers may recognize them but the general public just EATS mario games. If you take a look at sony, they had created a few really good and unique platformers in the days of the ps2 because those games didn't have to compete as much with Mario. I think sony is in the same boat now though. Kill of Ratchet and clank and Kill off crash bandicoot. Now what would happen if nintendo didn't have to compete with its own game? What would happen if they put most of there effort into a game that didn't have the Jumpman? If they can even move that mario development team to work on some of the other games in implement there ideas....then god dang I might actually start playing my wii. ( i bought it for monster hunter tri. )
