I've played a handful of them and lost interest within 5-10 minutes of most of them. What formula they stand for is hurting the industry. While these games are selling hundreds of millions of copies, core games that are being made by developers who are actually doing something for the industry (by pushing the medium forward with new ideas), aside from bringing Nintendo lots of cash in hand, are be shoved aside for these much easier to make compilations, that require little to no creative effort on the part of the developer.
I don't care that they're successful, I don't care that people like them... I just care about what this mentality is ultimately going to do to the gaming industry in the long run. Go ahead, tell me I'm wrong, I'm entitled to my own opinions... I just don't like that these types of games are the ones bringing the most commercial success.It's just that your "own" opinion is a tired old "hardcore" gamers opinion. It's silly. What amusing is that since you didn't like them, they must be bad for the industry. Is it the Wii you hate, or Nintendo in general? So revolutionary gameplay is going to hurt the gaming industry? So you actually think the hardcore gamers are the majority? They're not, and they never have been. What Nintendo has done is expand the industry, bringing in news types of gamers of different ages from all over the world. They've succeeded in appealing to the casual gamer, bringing fun gameplay to families, couples, groups, etc., and thus have pretty much secured the existence of the industry.
I want you to re-read your post and you'll undoubtedly see how silly it is. You're saying that, in your "opinion", expanding the gaming industry, attracting new demographics to the industry, and maintaining a standard set by Nintendo with their first Mario game is going to hurt the industry?
Lol.
