| Joelcool7 said: You are right Galaxy is more inline with the Wii's innovation philosophy however I would not in any way claim that that is the right direction to go in. I prefer classics and the familiar gameplay however I do like new games too. To be honest I am liking the idea that Nintendo is still giving us at least some classical familiar franchise based games.
I don't want an innovative Zelda, StarFox. Infact I would even prefer a more familiar Mario. However I think the direction of creating new franchises like Pikmin and Animal Crossingis the best way to go. Give us innovation through fresh and creative franchises but don't change the existing ones! |
I'm going to have to disagree. If Nintendo didn't innovate with each new release of it's major franchises, a new Mario game would be about as exciting as a new Mega Man game. ie: not exciting at all. Sometimes, it's controversial (Star Fox Assault/ "Cell-da" Wind Waker) but I will always prefer change over stagnation. Look at SMB3 as opposes to the original- Mario was a friggin' flying raccoon! Now that's innovation.
