This is a question that's been brought up several times, so I thought I'd make a thread about it. Do you think that playing on a Nintendo console is serious gaming? |

Sony and Windows have different branches for gaming IIRC, so essentially they are the same as Nintendo. |

Supply and demand, Wahnsinn. As long as fans cry out for Mario, Nintendo are gonna make it. Sony is Impact, Microsoft is ROH, Nintendo is WWE. No matter how bad you may think Nintendo can be, nobody can knock them off their throne. I am personally sick from Mario, but let's compare Super Mario 3D Land, and Super Mario Sunshine. Sure, Mario is overused, but SM3DLand and SMS are so different, it makes Mario feel fresh. Solid Snake is overused. Kratos is overused. MasterChief is overused, but that doesn't matter as long as the games are different to others. I do think however, more series like Kirby, StarFox, and Metroid need more games. Now, this is turning into that Gogeta V Vegito thread on dbzf. I will leave this open for 48 more hours, and close it after that time, |

Solid Snake is overused? Really? You played him in Metal Gear Solid 1, MGS2 is mainly about Raiden, in MGS3 you play Big Boss, in MGS4 you play Solid Snake and in Rising you play Raiden. So, yeah, pretty overused character, since you play him in only 2+ games. (Unless you count the Metal Gear games in). Kratos is a little bit overused, but it's not really that bad. They have to tell a story, so they can't just stop making a GoW game. 1-3 were necessary. As long as fans cry out for Mario? Even people like you admit that they have enough of the same old Mario gameplay, yet they still make them. Super Mario Sunshine was a good example of them doing something right. It was a good game that was finally different. |

Super Mario 64 was also a decent one. Mario games are fun, I love them, but I think more RPGs are in order. Mario can't stop anytime soon. |
