The current install base is already well supported. What's lacking is any expansion of this audience. Every little bit contributes to the overall outcome.

Appealing only to the same limited fanbase will destroy them in the long run if they don't bring in new gamers.


Not well enough. The only support that two major games in the first six months of a year is is life support. You think that metroid game isn't appealing to the same limited fanbase?

Metroid or a hardcore new IP has much more appeal outside that fanbase than DKR2, yes.

Metroid has been selling really poorly lately outside the metroid fanbase. It's like saying F-zero would sell more than DKR2, which it wouldn't. But I agree that DKR2 is an unnecessary game as for the Kart genre, MK8 is the king and is self sufficient.

Nintendo should put more ressources toward games like Animal Crossing or a true 3D Mario. As for Retro, they shouldn't forever become the DK studio eventough I like DK.
