What was Nintendo's golden decade?
#42
Actually, Koopaul mentioned something interesting here:

Quote:To them, IP is merely the paint over an original idea.

And this was largely true, and largely beautiful. Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Kart, Pikmin, everything was great when it was done like this. When it was done as a game first and a franchise second.

What we're seeing now is a reversal of that. Nintendo actively pursue a new Super Mario Bros. game, and now they're churning out shit.

It isn't about new IPs at all. It's actually got shit to do with which IP they use. It's creating games to fit the IP instead of twisting the IP to fit the game that's made the past generation and what can be seen of the next one so mind-numbingly boring.
