New Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario 64 outscored all Ratchet and Clank games.That is all.
I wasn't aware that Mario 64 came out on the Gamecube and neither was NSMB.
Its gamecube vs. PS2.
In that case, Ratchet Wins, get over it. Mario Sunshine, like most games on the cube, was a big fat dissapointment.

:lol:You just completely owned yourself! Exactly my point, NSMB, a DS game that follows the traditional Mario formula after twenty years, BESTS your wannabe Ratchet and Clank series.
Yeah, I honestly agree that SMS was a disappointment, but that is besides the point. Its absolutely ridiculous for someone to argue that Ratchet and Clank is better than Super Mario Bros. Super Mario Bros. is arguably what brought back gaming, what created the platforming genre, and is host to some of the best games of all time. Ratchet and Clank is just an attempt by Sony to steal away some of Super Mario Bros. glory.
Nostalgia does not earn you a free pass to the number 1 spot. Did you miss that the first Ratchet game scored a 9? Apparently its just as good as NSMB which also scored a 9. So much for besting, eh?
Nostalgia doesn't earn it a free pass to the number one spot? Platforming is basically built around nostalgia! Perhaps you should start looking at what a platformer is supposed to be like...The fact that they scored a 9 doesn't at all mean that I can't say its better, it means that I have room to argue the point. Besides, you seem committed to comparing the "latest" additions in the franchise. If that's the case then Super Mario wins, seeing as the latest entries in the series were on the DS and PSP.
But platform games have evolved past the simple side scroller. Old games are fine but thats no reason to hate everything thats new which is the only reason I can see why anyone would hate the Ratchet series. Fighting games started with Street Fighter but thats no reason not to love Tekken or Virtua Fighter. Nostalgia is not a free pass, its what you do now that matters.
Yeah NSMB vs Size Matters, was a mario win. That doesn't mean Ratchet is no good.
