Im not complaining Im just suprised and feel odd that Ninty keeps making IPs in their consoles now unlike in N64 and GC days. Sorry but Im in playstation era and I never seen this tactic before, maybe for you since you're a gamer since the NES era but not to me.
end of core gaming days prediction:
E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced
E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
E3 2010- Tape runs out
