| infamous23 said: Still, why does there have to be new Mario and new Wii series game announced at each new E3 and not a new core game with a brand new character that's as cool as Nathan Drake or Marcus Fenix? Sony has put Uncharted, Infamous, Resistance, Heavy Rain, Sorcery, Folklore, Heavenly Sword --many new core ips out there this gen. |
God, just... just stop. You don't even try to know what you're talking about in reference to Nintendo.
You're confusing series with intellectual property. Mario and Mario Kart arre separate series, even if thhey both share the Mario moniker. Shit, 3D Mario and 2D Mario are different series, too, with inherently different mechanics and levels of appeal, the latter illustrated irrefutably by sales differences.
Secondly, I'm going to ask you what I asked another guy about Kirby Epic Yarn:
Are you telling me that if they took this very unique visual design and very unique tie-in to play mechanics that the visual design has, but then applied it to some new mascot, you wouldn't have a problem with the game? Does the freshness and uniqueness of the game matter less than the character you play as? How do you reconcile this view with a medium where every meaningful classification is determined by mechanics?
Lastly, you have no idea what kind of new IPs Nintendo has created this gen alone.

Posted by the fabulous MrT-Tar: Well this is what I can recall of the top of my head for this generation: Wii... Series Brain Training Nintendogs Disaster:DoC Captain Rainbow Nintendo Touch Golf Big Brain Acadamy Art Acadamy Soma Bringer Endless Ocean Another Code Zangeki no Reinglev Flingsmash Xenoblade Maboshi Rock and Roll Climber Bonsai Barber Eco Shooter 530 Jam with the Band Polarium Elite Beat Agents Electroplankton Hotel Dusk Style Boutique Flipnote Studio |
And this list is not definitive.
Nintendo has been responsible for more new IPs this gen than either of their competitors, unless yo uwant to pretend that 3rd Party IPs (like Heavy Rain) somehow count for eithe Sony or Microsoft.
