Lets see.

Same name, same graphics, same gameplay (majority) and it comes out every 6months.

I say it's milked.

All this talk of milking makes me want to go stare at some breasts.

Many people seem to be ignoring that almost all Mario games are in different genres. If you only go by the name being slapped on the package of the game you COULD argue Mario has been milked lately, but I don't think it'd be the right thing to do.

Then I guess Mario isn't milked then, because what you just described isn't Mario.

Dynasty warriors is the most milked franchise of all time 8 entries in the main series, from dynasty warriors 4-7 all have 2 spin offs, dynasty warriors 3 has 1 spin off, there was 4 separate dynasty warriors titles on the psp, 1 on the vita, 3 on the DS, Also a dynasty warriors online, 2 dynasty warriors tactics. 3 Dynasty warriors
gundam titles......The list goes on and on and ONNNNNNN but if I was to count every title that had something to do with the dynasty warriors world there would be 35 titles and that excluding other koei titles that use the same battle system but have different titles.

Sure, Dynasty Warriors is milked, but do you think Mario is milked? Or is this basically a "No way."?

Those 2 came out 2-5 months ago

I don't really care if anything is milked. If a franchise releases a good release every 2 years or so, I don't care. Sometimes these "milked" games turn into unexpected gems because they have a strange idea that just works.

I don't care whether they release nothing or a bunch of crap. It makes no difference to me.

Sticker Star wasn't a bad game because it had Mario.

Nintendo tried to sell a bad game by putting Mario on it.

Totally different circumstances here.
