Hudson has been pretty shit since the end of the N64 generation (Bomberman 64 was AMAZING though), so whatever. Just develop for the PSN if you think developing a full game for the PS3 is too expensive.

All the GC Mario Parties were good.

Robopon was pretty good.

Aside from that they just haven't done much since N64 era... except bomberman games.

 

Yes, they were so fantastic...

No, actually, there were average at best.

On Topic:

Looking at their games in recent years, this does not surprise me in the slightest. A lot of those are for the Virtual Console of course, but that doesn't stop their strategy from being releasing cheap, average games. I'd be amazed if they were making any money at all.

 

Title	Plat	Company	Reviews	Avg. Vote	Avg Score
1. Mario Party 4	GC	Nintendo	49	7.4	74.108%
2. Mario Party 6	GC	Nintendo	37	7.7	73.051%
3. Mario Party 5	GC	Nintendo	43	7.6	70.823%
4. Mario Party 7	GC	Nintendo	29	7.5	64.862%

 

Eh come on. They were a lot of fun. The only reason they get such low reviews is because so very little changes year to year...

That and there really aren't any "Dedicated Mini-game" reviewers like there are for every other genre because it's not the kind of game that plays well to the reveiwer demographic.

I mean... has a minigame compliation ever scored over an 85?

I think the best scoring one is Wario Ware with an average of an 83. There is just a lot of hate for the Minigame genre in the gaming world... always has been.

Well not ALWAYS. California Games I think was reveiwed highly... but in recent memory anyway.

Probably because you need to get together a bunch of people to enjoy games like Mario Party.
