Create a new IP that everyone will swarm over like Pokemon. Enough with the embarrassing ports and half-baked games. |
That's not possible. Pokemon has built a fanbase over many years. You don't just create an IP and then it instantly sells tens of millions of units. It doesn't work like that. Nintendo has proved themselves with Pokemon like Sony has proved themselves with Gran Turismo. These franchises take time and effort to be turned into huge sellers. It's not an overnight thing.

This is not true in Pokemon's case, the 1st gen of Pokemon sold better than all its successive gens. What does Sony have? They next Mh can lift it in Japan , GT for europe, (is there a gigantic seller in NA? actually don't know this). But if even one of those are absent, the demand in that specific region plummets.
Pokemon actually WAS an overnight sensation, it suddenly released in Japan and took the country by storm (R/B/Y remain the best selling games in Japan to date) which just naturally spread to other regions. They need a brilliant creative new idea that can only be done on the VIta platform.
This thing needs the next big hit, it's not impossible as it has been done before by Nintendo multiple times. (Wii Sports? Came outta nowhere. Super Mario Bros? exploded onto the scene, there was no "Mario" fanbase before this game. I already mentioned Pokemon.)

@Bold - No...just no. That "game" is the most bundled game in the history of bundles. Also the reason I think that Pokemon was so successful at first is because hanheld gaming was just become relevant and people wanted that next "big" game to be released and that was pokemon. Hundreds of hours could be put into that game and there just was nothing like it on the market. It's hard to be innovative and creative in the gaming industry now because most of the things people think of already exist. It's something I tend to notice more now in the movie industry. I'm very rarely surprised or shocked by the ending of a movie, mostly because I've seen it all already.

It might have been bundled, but that game spread the Wii talk around. People really need to stop and accept that it was a game, albiet simple and casual, it drove people to purchase the Wii.
That "game" you refered to defines the 7th generation, along with HD.

Defines the 7th generation? well then...okay

Would it be better if I said motion control?
