If you only release 1 game over the decades, then you can set all kinds of records! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿฅณ

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 21 points 5 months ago

That's true. But that isn't what Nintendo has done, is it? I've bought lots of games made by Nintendo. Literally all the (physical) games I have are by Nintendo. ๐Ÿค”

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago

That's great and all. How's Mario kart 9 treating you?

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 17 points 5 months ago

I don't understand the point you're trying to make here.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 8 points 5 months ago

The original commenter is talking about Mario Kart 8 being the only Mario kart game in a decade.

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

They didn't say that though, they said the only game.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

Are you mentally deficient?

[-] TrendigOsthyvel@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah sorry, I did mean in the series.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 17 points 5 months ago

Yeah totally true. People always buy 10 year old games that suck in droves. Oh wait

[-] AProfessional@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Obviously it has to be good from the start, but yes. See GTA and Skyrim as examples where they support and market an old title.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

The original commenter was implying the game wasn't that good, they just didn't release others. My point was exactly that it had to be good for people to still be buying/playing it.

[-] A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

The sarcasm here tells us you're not that familiar with the games industry

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

So you're claiming that old games that suck are popular or....?

[-] A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I think I misread what you said because MK8 doesn't suck. But still arguably yes, case in point being Skyrim IMO. Or like, Fallout 4

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

My point was that if a game sells for a decade it's obviously pretty good

[-] Geek_King@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Yeah, just ask Bethesda about Skyrim!
