| Killiana1a said: Yes, it is good to release new titles for any franchise at least twice a decade if not more. New IPs are nice, but they are a gamble due to not having the nostalgia factor along with a segment of gamers who dub themselves "hardcore" and everything Nintendo "casual" may very well likely not even look at your game unless their "hardcore" junior high and high school friends are raving about it. Gamers have a long memory. I am speaking mainly of adult gamers who were well into their teens by the time Halo came out. These gamers like myself grew up playing Mario Bros on the NES, Super Mario Bros. 3, Donkey Kong Country 1-3, and on. We will buy this game. As for the younger "hardcore" gamers, I am quite unsure and am keen on wanting to know what their beloved franchises are? My predictions: Donkey Kong Country Returns - 3 to 7 million range Kirby's Epic Yarn - 2 to 4 million range Kid Icarus - 2 to 4 million range Goldenye 007 - 4 to 8 million range |
Say wut? O.o
