Throughout the years there have been many other multi-million FPS, Goldeneye, Medal of Honor, Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, Perfect Dark. the FPS shooter genre is not niche, its one of the most popular genre on consoles in the last 20 years and makes up a very large percentage of overall software sales, the same cannot be said for SRPG. |
I mean, I don't disagree with this notion of FPS being king, but you basically ignored the question I posed regarding Valkyria Chronicles and Fire Emblem being now a flagship Nintendo IP.
