Long story short Rol any member that has been here a few years knows I have support and you have support. Both of us are intelligent and both make decent points.
Even new users like NintendoPie see me and support me often and that is without me even being on the forum. He read my past threads.
Seriously Rol most of the users here know we both have support. You don't fool anyone by saying I have no support.
2D Mario is part of the Mario franchise. It is part of Nintendo's strongest IP. But what about Pokemon an almost equally powerful IP. Nintendo has tons of major IP.
Sorry Rol but their is no reason for Nintendo to rely entirely on Mario for success.
Nintendo has some amazing IP and new IP from Miyamoto and possibly Retro among others. Why in hell would Nintendo launch a Mario game without the hardware to support it and it over shadowing any potential new IP.
Its nuts. I notice you avoided my question. How would Mario have helped Wii at launch bundled as Nintendo's flagship title instead of WiiSports? Would WiiSports have survived would Nintendo have won the new gamers over would WiiFit have then been a success.
Mario would have devastated Wii's launch just like it could WiiU. Then you insisted without 2D Mario 3DS was going to fail you continued insisting Nintendo was making a bad decision launching Super Mario 3D Land. And despite all of your car about Nintendo making had decisions. Those decisions saved 3DS. In fact it is now one of the highest selling consoles in Nintendo's history. Again without 2D Mario.
Prior to 3DS's release I was predicting it would fail to succeed as good as DS. You stated Nintendogs was a strong IP. You continued to claim Nintendogs was a powerful IP till 3DS started going down.
If Nintendo listened to your advice 3DS would likely be worse off today. Nintendogs was in no way a smart flagship title and 2D Mario would not push hardware any more then Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart have. In fact I know that their is still a shortage of hardware here in Abby. Some of my local stores are actually sold out of 3DS.
The 3DS is doing good and all without Mario 2D. The title you insisted was needed. Now in this thread you mention needing Mario you and other users reference 3D Mario. But then back track when I prove it did not help hardware much.
I know you believe Nintendo is D00med without 2D Mario. But DS and Wii did fine without 2 D Mario for years in fact the t
