Shouldn't sheep be proud of this?

Who wouldn't be proud of being the one that makes Mario games?

there's a problem with it? It's the house that Mario built so to speak... I see nothing wrong. It's basically true. Nintendo makes many Mario games..

it could be flattering from some points of view, but it can also be offensive if they are implying Nintendo only makes Mario games. Why don't they call Microsoft the shooter factory?

Go to the news articles on Gamespot and they say Mario factory when reffering to Nintendo. Then scroll down to the comments and you see everybody complain that they should stop using that name.

Game reviewers can only play by themselves because other people are working to review other games. It's hard work to work as a gaming website editor.

Halo's multiplayer was not online. It's sequels had online but the first one didn't. You said that (and I quote) "Game reviewers can only play by themselves because other people are working to review other games..." If that was the case then how did they enjoy halo's multiplayer?

1st off, Math does not equal Hardcore RPGs. In RPGs you just push the attack command, you dont' actually do any math. 2nd off, why are you putting those games into genres? What does that have to do with anything?

I like how you contradict yourself by saying "mario party has gotten more than a little out of hand" but then you say " Don't agree with Jack_Russel" how can you openly agree with me then say that you don't?

Sorry, but Mario Party lost its steam after the 2nd one (I loved that one though).

It's just annoying to see Mario 'everything'. He's overused. They should try making a new character or game instead of just slapping Mario in a game and call it a night. Not all the casual Mario games are bad, but they're not great either...

Mario = Symbol of gaming

Factory = BIG, mass-scale production

It's not a bad nickname for Nintendo. Mario is the #1 game brand in the world, and Nintendo is one of the world's biggest game publishers. Only the overly defensive think it's an insult.

I don't see how their ruining his name as long as good spin-offs are good then shouldn't even matter. All the mario sports games have been good so has mario kart . Mario party games have been great party games. Only mascot that is really getting ruing is sonic , heck sonic main games have been mostly medicore in the last few years. with exception sonic heros that was decent.

The final fantasy games aren't even direct sequels. All 13 have different stories with different worlds and different characters and different battle systems. I mean, FF has only been in 3d since VII. VII(the best), VIII(the worst), IX(the second worst), X(a good one), X-2(mega-flop), XI(flop), XII(great), XIII (unreleased).
