It's hard to define innovation anymore, what Nintendo needs to focus on is making the best games as they used to ( not anymore), but stop coming up with gimmick although popular but devalues their standards. I know their goals is to find new ways to play games which is fine, but what's more important: making the best games or the most innovative game? As to me, innovation as to coming up with new stuff is quite overrated because when you focus on great things innovation comes automaticly.

I think many people debated that point in a thread not too far back... the best versions of many of Nintendos biggest IPs have come out this gen be it on DS or Wii as well as really good new IPs that flat out carried the Wii when third parties didn't... so that's a hard point to sell to people, just saying.
As for the thread, I expected to see some rol tactics here but this was pretty much straight forward and I agree  generally when games, genres, etc keep adding things because that's what the core "wants", it generally leads to decline, when a popular series goes back to it's roots, makes it a bit more accessible, the sales usually increase by a lot even if the reviews don't. So it's like this do you listen to the stuck up people (be they reviewers or "hardcore" gamers)or do you listen to the people that play games? Hrm.

I think we are confusing best selling to best version. Nintendo was regarded as the best developers of games, it's debatable these days no matter how many fans sees it. That doesn't mean they are making bad games, far from it, they just don't make the best games anymore.
I'm sorry popular has never meant quality to me no matter the genre. Nintendo has been very smart early most of this Generation, they made games that draw in a new market, they have a couple games that have sold insane numbers and continue to sell, as far as being the best games, they were not.
And I am not picking on Nintendo with this whole innovation thing, Sony is having their own issue too because they think everything they make has to so powerful. Which is why I think MS is the most balance right now.

No I'm not confusing anything at all, best 3D Mario, best Smash, best Kart, best Donkey Kong, best New Super Mario Bros, best Animal Crossing, etc out of those Animal Crossing is the only one to not live up to sales of the game that came before it as well.... sooooo no I've never meant best selling, I meant the best versions, they're just going hand in hand for the most part.
