I'll do Zelda for Sure! I'll even break it down into 3 parts |
(Total/Console/Handheld)Do we really need a thread for every franchise, much less a thread for every possible categorization of games in a franchise? Just put them all in one thread! I mean holy shit, if you tried to do Mario, you'd need like 30+ threads! Mario could have threads for the Mario franchise as a whole, 2D Mario, 3D Mario, 3D Land/World Mario (people think of these differently), Mario platformer remakes, a total for Mario platformers, Mario Kart, Mario sports as a whole, a thread for each Mario sport (golf, baseball, soccer, tennis, basketball, Olympic games, etc.), Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi RPGs, a total for Mario RPGs, Mario Party, Dr. Mario, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, misc. Mario games (like Mario Picross, Mario Pinball Land, Mario Paint, or Mario DDR), and that's just for Mario himself. Then there's Luigi's Mansion, the Mario Is Missing games, a Luigi game total, Wario platformers, Wario Ware, a Wario total, Yoshi puzzle games, Yoshi platformers, a Yoshi total, other spinoff platformers (like Super Princess Peach), a spinoff total, and that doesn't include all the comparisons you could do. You could have a NSMB/ original SMB comparison, a comparison by system, Mario/other character comparison, genre based comparison, you get the idea. To accurately represent the Mario franchise you'd have to do a lot of threads, even if you tried to condense the ones I listed.
And it's not just Mario either. Zelda has the Four Sword series, spinoff games (Link's Crossbow Training, Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, etc.) the different timelines, the different art styles, 3D vs. 2D, console vs. handheld, and so on. I advise you just put ALL the metascores from ALL the franchises you want to do in one thread somehow. Maybe have them all categorized by franchise in one post, then in the next draw whatever comparisons you think are interesting, like 2D/3D, platform, genre, etc.
