Nintendo is not fearful that continually releasing new Mario games will come back to bite the company.
If you were a 90s kid excited about Nintendo’s upcoming N64 console, you likely read something somewhere about the Nintendo 64 Disk Drive, also known as the 64DD or DD64.
Other nominees include games like SimCity & Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
There are some good nominees in this list that are deserving to be inducted also, but I feel Metroid has had the most impact on the industry out of all of these. Look how Metroid influenced the evolution of the Castlevania games, and the "Metroidvania" subgenre of games have become a prevailing force in gaming today. Especially now, Metroidvanias are bigger than ever.
I can very much see Resident Evil being added later too, bc it really did popularize and define the survival horror genre. I would say that one is next in line.
If any Metroid game should get the honor it should be Super Metroid , it's perfection in my eyes . 30 years later and I still feel it's the most epic shit ever .
The GBA remake deserves it or Super Metroid, the original was a very sloppy and rushed game programmed in 3 months and it shows.
If you've never played the remake, it's absolutely a must play, fixes basically every flaw in the game. Check out ExoParadigmGamer's comparison video.
“Before even Kirby was born, HAL Laboratory released the super-cute puzzler Adventures of Lolo in 1989 and it has held up beautifully.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
just announce the new Zelda game already.
People do not seem to mind. I am not a fan of Mario games (I really disliked Super Mario galaxy 2) but it seems a lot of people are so I agree there seems to be no harm.
I dont think nintendo knows how to create a new game anymore... Just recycle what they have over n over w btr graphics
They release varied Mario games, I prefer the 3D ones like Galaxy, but I also enjoy the throwback games like New Super Mario Bro's.
As long as they are still good and people still want them, why not release them?
I'm starting to understand that the only people who complain about "milking" are ones who are never happy with anything, so they find the need to complain.
People still complain that call of duty gets an annual release, Nintendo milks so much of their old franchises.
