Nintendo feels like a broken record

[Neo]

I like Mario games just as much as the next Nintendo fan, but this is getting ridiculous. Nintendo knows Mario sells and they milk every last drop out of the mario utter. Just when you think it's gone dry they manage to squirt you in the face with another stream of mario milk. It's seriously time for Nintendo to develop some new characters and let Mario, Samus, and Link rest for a while. I would even be happy if they released a new punch-out or kid icarus title. But honestly Nintendo needs to try their hand at new franchises if they want more than to simply hold on to their tiny piece of the pie. Pikmin was a good start but they can't be afraid to try new things. Sure some of them might fail but businesses don't grow by standing still.

Revolution needs to launch with Punch-Out, Kid Icarus, Pilotwings, and a couple other refreshing titles. Mario and Donkey Kong won't sell systems beyond the core audience.
