#86039 Nintendo Needs to Create a New Franchise Already

Posted by Diablo2 on 09 June 2012 - 08:45 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I think that instead of focusing on 8 mario games and 3 zelda games in 11 months that they should give love to the other franchises. Starfox, Metroid, F zero, Mother, and all that other good stuff instead of rehashes of mario. This is getting worse then CoD

I (obviously) couldn't have said it better myself; this is what the original thread/topic meant to discuss. It's just too much of the same. I'm just looking for something OTHER than Mario/Zelda/Metroid to become more standard. Something different. Wether it's a long-term racer (non-Mario related) or adventure/RPG...whatever it is.

Too many rehashed stories indeed. Just look at Zelda. I DO love Zelda but.....come on already.

So many games these guys could potentially bring back from the dead. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

#85936 Maybe Nintendo is targeting the hardcore long term after all!

They should prove their loyalty to the hardcore base with a new Eternal Darkness, for starters, lol.

Starfox, on the other hand, needs to make a hell of a comeback. I could easily imagine it as a hit using today's technology and the use of the new gamepad.

#85933 [For Fun] If you could only pick 1 of the following which would you pick?

Mario 128 all the way, as long as it doesn't have all the annoying things Mario Sunshine had. If they make it more like Mario 64, im all in.

Lol yup, let's hope so. Im just hoping people would start looking at the compnay in a new, more positive light. Unfortunately, each console HAS missed out on some much-needed RPGs and racing games, for example. Nintendo is currently a bit unbalanced with their lineups but hopefully the Wii U will fix most of these issues.

Nintendo Land, Pushmo, Dillon's Rolling Western, and Xenoblade. Boom counter argument.

Let's hope they actually stick--- that's the thing. Hoping they don't become irrelevant over the years, ala Crash Bandicoot.

I love Nintendo and all. I play every single Mario game that comes out and contrary to popular belief, im one who thinks the original Wii is SERIOUSLY overlooked. On the same token, however, I think it's time Nintendo comes up with a newer set of characters. I mean, as good as Metroid, Mario and Zelda are, how many of these can consumers take? Sure, they have been taking them happily since the 1980s, but that also doesn't mean Nintendo can sit back and keep profiting on a tired formula for the next 100 years. If Miyamoto did it before, surely he can do it again. The guy needs to sit down, grab a pen and paper and start developing the next great franchise. By now, even Mario Kart is starting to feel a bit stale, although still enjoyable overall.

As an ideal example, i would like for someone to introduce a solid RPG franchise much like the Final Fantasy games represent Sony. Nintendo's best bet (in this genre) is to talk to Camelot and tell them to work up a sweat and make Golden Sun a more standard series, as opposed to releasing one every gazillion years for handheld devices alone.

Personally, i think a bit of a change or something NEW would be nice, rather than expect the same formula with every consle (Mario here, Zelda there.)

What champion would you like to see on every Nintendo console from now on?

#85497 Anyone is afraid to see the graphics of the wii u today at E3?

The Nintendo conference was pretty disappointing overall, as they DID manage to show off some things but still left too many burning questions out.
Im still somewhat clueless about the graphical capabilities, something that most consumers should be aware of by now, as it IS a driving force to many people when it comes to purchases. Considering the console is just months away, i really dont know what the Big N is waiting for.

I went from being a hardcore gamer to non gamer, and now im slowly getting back to it. The Wii U is also giving me more and more hopes, much like the original wii did.
Welcome

Posted by Diablo2 on 07 June 2012 - 05:25 PM in Introduction Central

Just another member here. Looking forward to the new console like the rest of us. While half the games are not that exciting yet, i AM intrigued with the thought of using the GamePad screen to play while my brother watches TV.

Lol anyway, hello to everyone here.
