No. What we get is 4-6 mario games in a yr time span. They can do new IP's if they wanted.

You missed out by not purchasing the n64!

Actually: Mario 1-3, Mario World, Mario 64, Mario Sunshine, Mario Galaxy 1-2, Mario land 1-3D (3), NSMB1-2 Wii-U (4),  that's 15 games in about 26 years. The same number of Call of Duty games has been released in the last 8 years.

What about yoshi's island, super mario RPG, Mario Party (ALL 8 OF THEM) and Mario Kart (ALL 7 OF THEM), Mario and Luigi saga (3) I'm aware they aren't platformers but they are still mario focused games.
