I think there were more than twelve great new franchises that would come out across the board. There were more great games in all than just IP's.

"Great" is reserved for the absolute best of the best for me. A game can still be excellent, but not quite great, in my view.


Well thats subjective, I'm stating objectively here where games were critically acclaimed and got excellent reviews. I used to ignore indy games because I was biased and I admit it, but they brought me back to Nintendo (and if Sega were around same thing) and reminded me of the fun I used to have with Nintendo. I don't care any longer than Nintendo doesn't make new IP's as long as they keep making games. I didnt buy the Wii, but the Wii U is on my radar because of it.

Flower, Unfinished Swan, Journey, Dead Nation, Braid, 3D Dot Heroes, Shadow Complex, Outland and many, many more. Took me back and gave me a greater appreciation for the styles of old instead of  just the evolution which is the spectacle of today.

Even critical acclaim and reviews are subjective opinions of said critics and reviewers though. But I'm glad there were so many great games for you.

Great just means a different thing to me.
