Animal Crossing is 'core' in one sense of the word, but I don't think it is in the sense we're thinking of. Metroid is not that big an IP really, but it's one of the more development intensive series on Nintendo consoles these days, that's why I consider it a 'big game', the costs to make it rather than just the sales it receives. |
You have a good point, several could think of DK, Wario, and Yoshi as branching IP from Mario.
Pixel Art can be fun.
