In all fairness, the story-driven Nintendo games usually involve Nintendo taking the same story and driving it straight into the ground. They re-tell the same story over and over again.

That's not to say I don't love them but it's hardly innovative stuff.

really? I find the story in Fire Emblem to be quite different to Zelda, to Advance Wars, etc. You have to remember that story telling is not exactly a very innovative art, especially in video games. I wouldn't call Nintendo pioneers in story telling, but they're definitely not the worst out there.

 

I'm not saying their stories are the same through all franchises, more that the next Zelda game will be like the last, the next Mario game like the last, the next SPM like the last SPM, etc. They retell the same story over and over again within the same franchise.
