But is it not true that the top three Nintendo franchises are a tried and true formula, that haven't been changed in nearly twenty~25 years? Is it not true not Mario is the same exact title? Albeit incorporating 3D, the NSMB games are copies of games from 25 years ago. Zelda games adapted 3D, but the new Link between Worlds game is yet another copy of games so similar to the NES days. Pokemon, pfft. You can't possibly argue that its changed since the Red/Blue days. 

The tried and true formula only works and exists because it sells to new generations of children, time and time again. They're fantastic games for new gamers, but I can't possibly imagine how fans could play the same exact formula over and over. 

You mean like... Killzone?

 

It is funny you mention A Link Between Worlds. It is getting praise by grown-up critics all across the board. The 3D Mario games are always different and add something new and refreshing. A big part of the Pokemon fanbase is adult.

Killzone is a terrible example, because it copies all other shooters and incorporates their features into its multiplayer. It's just a title used by Sony to have a mature exclusive shooter under its belt. In the shooter category, CoD is no different than the Nintendo franchises I mentioned.

It's getting praise by 'grown-up critics,' because thats who reviews games! Not to mention, high scores due to its features for new players and children. Simple tasks for simple minds. There will always be adults reviewing these games; same way how adults make them.

Also, what do you consider adult? I know Pokemon is popular for up to the college crowd, but not beyond that. You have to be diagnosed with a serious case of man-child.
