A NEW IP uses new property, so ideally, shouldn't use any property from another IP. That's why mario spin-offs would not count, however since we aren't a legal team, as long as the title is a drastic change and doesn't focus too much on the previous IP's, I can let it off, however there are no cases of such in the list above. |
Well, what makes a new IP is really debatable. To give examples: I personally would count main Mario games, Mario Kart, Mario Golf and Smash Bros as completely different IPs although all of them make use of Mario. Mario Maker is difficult, I probably would count it still with main Mario games, although the creation gameplay is somewhat different. But then you could say it could also have been happen that a new Mario Game included an editor, that would be something similar. NES Remix is in similarly difficult terrain. For Nintendoland I think it is more clear it is a new IP, as it has completely new gameplay, it is no Zelda or Metroid game. Similar as Smash is another IP.
