Remakes, Reimaginings and Reboots

[Gwen]

I love it how people want a game series which is nice, bright, colourful and cheerful to have GRIMNESS and DEATH.
Like hey wouldn't it be cool if Kirby ripped people's heads off and used them as a bowling ball? No - no it wouldn't.
I also don't want Peach giving long speaches (speaches? Peaches? get it? Ah sod you...) about the economical climate of the mushroom kingdom or how a loop in the legal system allows Bowser to walk around freely.

Yes I'm using extreme examples but you get my point. We have enough realistic/grim games. We don't need Nintendo following the same path.

I also feel I need to post "Killer Instinct 3" so we can all nod in agreement, deny how badly those games have aged, sigh at how great Rare once was, and know we will never see it.

Your extreme examples don't serve you point very well at all. A pokemon in a realistically dark world is so easy to see, the only reason they don't explore it more (Pokemon Colosseum) is because the biggest part of the fanbase is kids.
