This thread is idiotic... The only thing uncreative about Nintendo's franchises is that they use the same mascot characters in all of them. Beyond that, you won't find a more diverse and creative games which evolve and reinvent a series with every iteration.

So what if half of them take the mario name. The fact that mario was attached to a games name means that instead of a pathetic 4 million sales that something like "the Last of Us" achieved, it would get 10 million.

The only thing I don't like about Nintendo is that they don't buy up more development studios and that they don't branch out into more genres. I would love to see Nintendo make an MMO game.

You didn't read the OP careful enough.

1. The only games with Mario in the name that are close to 10 million since 2011 are 3D Land, MK7, and NSMB2...

2. 4 million isn't pathetic at all, especially for a new IP. I also think TLOU could have great legs like Uncharted, so I wouldn't be surprised if it outsells Mario Sunshine.
