| spemanig said: Zelda and Pokemon are both annual franchises. I'd even say that Mario is, but then you'd be going into semantics. Hell, Zelda releases two games a year sometimes. Don't know what the guy is talking about. EDIT: And don't get me wrong, I love that they are annual. I can't wait more than a year for my next Zelda/Mario/Pokemon fix. |
Zelda isn't really annual at all, you can technically count since 2011 we have gotten a new Zelda but it's more like this.
2011: Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time 3D (remake)
2012: Nothing
2013: A Link Between Worlds, Wind Waker HD (remake)
2014: Hyrule Warriros (Spin off)
2015: Zelda Wii U, Majora's Mask 3D (remake)
Remakes and spin off's don't count, it's been bi-yearly and if you only want to count 3D Zelda's then it will be 4 years since Skyward Sword released when Zelda Wii U comes out.
As for Mario, you could say it's annual if you count all the spin offs, etc but you can if you just count the main series, the next 3D Mario platformer will probably launch in 2017, 4 years after 3D World.
