| BenKenobi88 said: I don't get it...yeah, there's a ton of Mario games, but it's not "over-used" for the most part in my opinion. I find it's typically fanboys of other systems that accuse Nintendo of rehashing Mario all the time to cash the cow. I enjoy most of the Mario games, because they're generally of good quality. Using Mario for every single Nintendo game would definitely be overkill, which is why they picked Zelda for this game. Makes sense to me... |
As long as most of the games remain good, I could care less as well. But now that we have:
Mario 2D platformers
Mario 3D platformers
Mario Kart
Mario RPG
Mario Party
Mario Golf
Mario Tennis
Mario Soccer
Mario Baseball
Mario Basketball
Doctor Mario
Mario and Sonic at the Olympics
Super Smash Bros*
Not to mention independent title for Mario-verse characters with Peach, Wario, Yoshi, Luigi and of course Donkey Kong**, it's a bit too late to start worrying about over-exposure.
*Techincally not a Mario title, but his mug is always predominantly featured in ads, and it does give Mario and his crew much more exposure.
**Yeah, I know that by title, Mario is technicaly a spin-off of the Donkey Kong series, but since the first DK game had you controlling Mario in a platformer trying to save a pink chick, you could argue that the gameplay was all Mario.
