What is your problem with responding my separate arguments? I even give each of them separate paragraphs! Anyway, the whole point I'm discussing is this (your post, I don't even know their discussion):
"Really the only comparison nintendo has is ocarina, and that's gone through three releases, and two developments, and one complete refresh, and half the sales."
And that's not true. Fact. Mario (others too) do it too.

Comparison because it's a game during the same year as diablo 2.
One game vs one game.
I didn't realize you were talking franchises until later on in the argument when you went on to say supermario alstars counts for all the mario games individually. To be honest, you didn't even mention the franchise until your fourth post, the previous ones talking about a specific game. Not my fault. Looked like you were just pushing back the goal posts.

Even 1 vs 1 (which is unfair, given Diablo 2 is sold with it's prequel and expansion), Mario has games that outsell diablo when it comes to post sales. Mario 3 is one example.
And Zelda is from 98, and diablo 2 is from 2000 - both respectively GOTY for me.
|
It's not unfair because mario allstars has seen 3 releases. This is exactly why I pointed all of that out! It's by far unfair that mario all stars is coutned on three systems and bundling, and is 4 games, and sometimes 5 (the ones with super mario world).

Diablo was being sold on the PC. Like I said, it would be released many many times if not for that - I mentioned the resolution change, but there were many other changes.
|
So your argument is that Diablo would have sold much much more had they broken up the patches into new SKUs?
|
No, but that your argument about diablo being a single release game, while true, is only possible since it's a PC game. Diablo 2 800x600 would be a All Star Diablo, not doubt about, if it were on consoles. So, with that, we can't detract Mario for having rereleases.
