But I could argue all games have gimmicks why does Nintendo take the cake on this? The Last of Us had a zombie gimmick, Call of Duty has it's multiplayer gimmick. You are litterally condeming all games on one platform because of a one sided debate gimmick debate. Cat suit in mario is no more a gimmick than the bullet time effect in Max Payne. It's how you use that gimmick to enhance and make your game more enjoyable is what matters. If you want to classify it as a gimmick you must recognize the gimmicks in non-Nintendo games. 


You're confusing Fads with Gimmicks.


No i'm not, you are the one who is confused. A gimmick is a trick; a fad is an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived and without basis in the object's qualities. If all you have is a one line response to me then I see no point in continuing this conversation.


I re-edited my post to clarify. Popularity doesn't = Gimmicks.
Such as Zombies in The Last of Us.

Length of posts doesn't matter, quality > quantity.
