Oh I never said that they losted all the core base! They are lots of them! But the truth is that many got tired of Nintendo and migrate to sony/microsoft/PC. Yes they sell a lot but the final reaction is mostly "not bad but is just not the same" by many N-core gamers.
Personally, I dispise "Mario 64". Yes it introduced many new concepts but the magic of the classic marios dissapeared and became boring and monotonous. Mario Galaxy was better becasue it tried to revive that same old feeling and it succeed partiall but I prefer to play SMB3 or Yoshi's island any time than SMG.
I love Nintendo, but I do think and I am not the only one that Nintendo needs to go back to basics (aim to the fun, not to the "worlds") of their games.
