Chairman-Mao said: I can't say as I disagree with this article. You can't possibly deny the fact that because its a Mario is the only reason it got so much recognition. If it has been the exact same game with different characters and a different name it wouldn't have done well at all. |
You could swap out 'Mario' and imput many other games into that Scenario and get the same result. From Halo 3 to Final Fantasy to Uncharted 2. You can't play the 'its only selling because of name recognition card' if you're not willing to claim the same thing for all the other games that are selling based on name recognition as well.
