But you're doing such a good job of it. =\

Nobody can seem to grasp the fact that Nintendo have milked Mario and concepts in the past and have gotten away with it.

Your argument has literally made NO SENSE. I've read this entire travesty in one go from OP to this post, and I couldn't see what point you were trying to make. You say that Nintendo has milked Mario, and imply that these games are inferior because of this milking, then you try and defend OTHER companies doing the exact same thing. The ONLY difference is that these other companies have not done it for AS LONG, which makes it COMPLETELY acceptable in your eyes. To which, I call bullshit. You CANNOT bash Nintendo for milking, then turn around and defend other companies doing the same thing by using the excuse that the other companies haven't done it as long.

We're not saying that Nintendo hasn't milked it, there's no doubt that they have, and it annoys me a bit when I walk into a Target and I see "Super Mario Strikers DEMO" and "DDR Mario Mix" in the kiosk (Granted, Super Mario Strikers is rather fun, but the last soccer game I played was... FIFA '95, I think, so I can't really tell how original it is). But we're not arguing that Nintendo hasn't milked them, we're arguing that you're bashing Nintendo unfairly for milking, when companies that do the same thing earn your praise.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
