| DonFerrari said: I'm a little confused, you say it shouldn't be an AAA because it wouldn't sell much, but then you say it have potential to be a Mario Killer. I was wanting an AAA Battletoads. I didn't say Altered Beast was AAA (but certainly seemed a bigger project than this BattleToads, and closer to the top games of the time it released), but that I liked it while this idea for BattleToads I don't like much. |
I personally don't think a AAA budget BToads will do well. Its not that sort of game. Some games need a new direction and who knows where this art style takes it. Could lead to better made cartoon series etc. BToads has the protential to be anything as its such a great IP.
This can be MS testing the waters of the IP and seeing how it sells on face value.
Also not all Mario games are AAA. Mario Tennie, Party, Golf, Soccer, Run and many other Mario games hang around the AA bracket. There is nothing wrong with doing that. There are critics that actually like this new art style so that tells us something and that there is a market for this type of design.
Its also harder to animate which is very time consuming so there's alot more effort put into the designs than most want to think.
