Nothing will dethrone Mario 3D games. Nobody except Nintendo are really making games like that anymore.


Thats obvious. Nintendo owns the IP. Did you mean 3D platformers? Then the answer is not yet, but in the 6th gen Sony prooved with the Ratchet and Jak series that they can be at least on-par


on par with Sunshine.....maybe;)

 

Exactly... Insomniac managed to produce 4 platformers in the genre during one generation, on par with only one released by Nintendo. Things can change fast.

 

Yeah, but do they have the staying power of Mario? Only time will tell I guess...


No, they already vanished. But thats not the point. The point is that the market is volatile and there are plenty of quality devs to be able to take away any crown in any genre. Not just 3D platformers. Dont get me wrong, I still believe that SMG is one of the finest 3D platformers (or platformers in general) ever crafted by human hands
