Would you be a Nintendo fan if Mario had never existed?

Oh, dear lord.  Look, I'm sorry, it was all Mario.  No one cared about any of the other games, right from the start, even before anyone had played a single NES, everyone only cared about Mario.  All the rest of the games combined were complete failures.  There you go.

So mature.

No, just tired of this.  I hate this whole, massive butt-hurt thing with Nintendo fanboys if you say the slightest thing negative about Mario, then you have to deal those rushing to attack, like you with this meaningless post which adds nothing at all to the discussion.  I know I'm not going to win against a whole hord of you because it will never end.  So you want to come in at the tail end to keep the fight going?  And you think that's mature?  Hah.

When you say ridiculous crap like "new IPs don't sell hardware", you have to expect to be called out on it.
