Define "a bunch"

I would define more than half as a bunch.

I fail to see where I placed a bunch of ports vs new games. If anything you are being inconsistent by considering Mystery Dungeon just a GBA/DS remake while Lets Go is a brand new game.

Sheesh, you leave out any caveat and people try to go through it.

I figured it would be obvious that Let's Go is significantly different than Mystery Dungeon considering one is a fairly faithful remake and the other is a whole new spin-off series with its own distinct gameplay and different intended audience.

I know they both use the basic same Kanto region structure, but who honestly thinks they're the same game?

And how is two multiplayer Mario spinoffs aimed at casuals/families not a relevant comparison?

One is the 8th best-selling game on the system and the other is a toy.  They don't even normally belong in the same department in the store.

If you were trying to compare apples to apples, I can't conceive of why you didn't pair the toy with the toy and stick it with Labo.

Also if you are going to include Torna/Octo Expansion than its only fair to include Isle of Armor/Crown Tundra.

I already covered why it wouldn't be.

*Note: I'm not just tossing in the DLC from 2018 and ignoring 2020. The DLC this year has just been a lot more standard in the vein of adding a little bit to a pre-existing game whereas Torna was justifiably packaged as a full game and Octo Expansion conceivably could been have as well.

I didn't include all DLC from either year (the DK expansion for Mario + Rabbids for example from 2018).  I only listed the DLC that felt like a complete game.  And the Sword/Shield DLC definitely falls into a category of simply supplementing an existing game.  Torna's an easy call as it got its own individual release and is a 20+ hour game.  I don't believe there's any controversy there and you didn't complain before.

Octo Expansion is borderline.  It didn't get its own release and isn't quite as meaty at a 10 hour experience.  If you wish to not include it, that's fine.  But it's definitely much more its own game than Isle of Armor/Crown Tundra.





What do you mean more than half? At most I compared 2 new games to ports/remasters.

Saying Mario Kart Live is just a toy is like saying Mario Party is just a board game.

According to this, Octo Expansion (7.5-14 hours) and Isle of Armor (5-15.5 hours) are about the same.
