| Onyxmeth said: I don't mean to piss on your massive wall of text(which I did read by the way), but Nintendo has already covered the SHMUP genre with Sin and Punishment 2. By releasing Star Fox, that would be breaking the values you claim they have by releasing one franchise per genre. Sorry. |
Sin and Punishment isn't going to expand anything. Like I said, they can tackle the genre if there has been no big hit there. They can tackle racing with Mario Kart because Excite Trucks did not expand the system. Sin and Punishment is a niche title that will appeal to a set user base. Star Fox can appeal to much more then that if done right (and has some good multiplayer). Star Fox is the SHMUP answer, not Sin and Punishment.
@Killeryoshis:
Pikmin 3 will expand the RTS genre to consoles and sell 10 million and destroy the PC market of PC RTS
You and I both know that is not going to happen. Pikmin is very different from other RTSs so it's doubtful it will fill the RTS void. A true RTS on the Wii will, but not Pikmin. If done right, it could still break 10 million, but it's a stretch.
