No, we're comparing Sony's first party roster versus Nintendo's. I thought it was rather obvious, but apparently some people here need everything spelled out to them. What does it matter if the characters are old? Most of them are still relevant today. If anything, it's impressive that these characters have survived for so long in a chaotic industry. Compare Mario to Crash Bandicoot and Sonic nowadays. It's all about quality: that's why all of them are older than 10 years. Crappy characters don't last that long! Anyway, if you want a new Nintendo IP, I'll be glad to tell you Miyamoto is making one. |
Bullshit, do you wanna know why most Nintendo characters are still "relevant" today? Because Nintendo keeps using them, plain and simple.
That still doesn't say anything about the quality of the respective first parties, just because Sonys first party doesn't have many characters that have been used in dozens of games (something I'm sure more than a few people would count as a pro for Sony) doesn't mean they are worse than Nintendos.
