Nintendo should copy Sony

So what you trying to say because a game is a franchise multi-instalment hit, that somehow makes it less of a classic than a potential one hit wonder? Listen pal, no matter how many Zelda games, for example, Nintendo makes all of them will be on par and even better than games like SotC. For example, Zelda Wind Waker, why don't you try arguing on this site that this game is any less special or memorable than SotC. Just as much people will love to see another Wind Waker game as much as they will like to see another SotC game.

So while, I agree that sales don't make a good game, try keeping off of Ninty's back, because Nintendo puts infinitely more care and hardwork into each installment of their big first party titles more than any other developer. See the link below about the school or training Ninty put on for making Mario games. That's dedication to perfection regardless of the number of installments in the series.

Or maybe, you're arguing than Nintendo has no new IPs, but what you call games like Pikmin, or Nintendogs. Or maybe Nintendo should revive games like Golden Sun or Earthbound?

Nintendo doesn't need to do anything but be Nintendo, no blood, no guts, just great franchise games.

I'm not your pal, friend.

mk, that out of the way.  I'm not arguing any of that crap, jeezus.  I am saying that Nintendo is not perfect, there is no game like SotC made by Nintendo, maybe that's because they don't give a little group like Team Ico total freedom to just screw around and maybe they should give it a shot.  I'm arguing that just because SotC doesn't sell amazing doesn't mean that Nintendo couldn't use a game like it.  

So to recap, I got into this because I'm so tired of people getting defensive the second someone says Nintendo might be able to work on something.  I swear it's like a religion.  The idea that Shigy isn't an infallible god just gets some people in a frenzy and it's terribly annoying to see.  SotC is an amazing game, Nintendo doesn't have a comparable game, maybe they could look into trying to make a team like team ico.  

The argument isn't that Nintendo is infallible, but "not making a prestige game" is not amongst their failings. If anything, too many developers in Nintendo have their eye more on prestige than on the prize.
