Milking would mean the games would decline in quality...

not on my watch. my definition of milking is soely based on the releasefrequency and timeframe. it's mainly because imso no amount of productionquality and effort could even save my favorite franchise from growing tired on me at some point. nothing good lasts forever.


You wouldn't happen to be a Final Fantasy fan then would you?


A lot of these multiplats youre showing have total different universe. How can you compare FF to mario if evry FF is basicly an entire new game? same is true for CoD, MGS, AC, Castlevania, Need for Speed, GTA, Street Fighter.

Mega Man and sonic saw also some heavty design changes



Why i left PC gaming

Nintendo franchises dont change it up now? You need to do some research before speaking on this subject.

Because every Mario is basically an entire new think, jesus, when was the last time you played a Nintendo console? In 1996?
Do you think super mario world, mario sunshine and mario galaxy are the same? 
And btw, I see more similarities between ff 3, 4,5 and 6 and between ff 7-8-9-10 than I find between Sunshine and Galaxy or between Wind Waker and Majoras Mask.

"How can you compare FF to mario if evry FF is basicly an entire new game?"

How can you compare FF to Mario if every FF is practically the same genre? Mario at least goes from platforming to Racing/Sports/jrpgs/etc :o

I also want to point out their OUT OF THIS WORLD abilities to compress games like 3D World and make it weight less than 2GB.

Still they havent made any mature series in 35 years they were in bussines. Ever since they reached gamecube level they should have made an own AAA ip or something. It explains their design choices now that metroid is not releasing and zelda has cel shading graphics again, its to save money it seems to me.


First its not making a HUGE Budget game now its mature games? C'mon!!!!!!!

"It explains their design choices now that metroid is not releasing and zelda has cel shading graphics again, its to save money it seems to me"

Is that why they went from LoZ WW to TP? Also Because Metroid hasnt released this gen (possibly yet) means its to save money? I think your reaching now :-/


But its the truth, Metroid wasnt as sucessfull as their other gamecube franchises and i am pretty sure it was more expensive to produce with the exception of Twillight princess. They cant just release it with a bit of updated graphics, everyone would except it to compete with the likes of alien isolation at least.

You clearly know nothing about Metroid.

Of course they're the best, that's the main reason they should just start making that, games for anybody to enjoy, not just people that are willing to pay a $300+ paywall to play them.

Although, Valve used to kick Nintendo's ass when they made games.



I'm now filled with determination.
