Not only are they keeping their classic characters but they are finding new ways to plug them in new games. Personally i love Nintendo and i think it’s THE best option to initiate kids to video games. Mario platformers and kart are great initiation games and then, when the kid masters that he can move on to Zelda which is a great action game but with great puzzles as well. And as an adult i have both the Switch and the PS5. During the pandemic Animal Crossing has been a life saver, i played that for like 500 hours in 2020 believe it or not, just insane. Nintendo has a way to put out feel good games

100% agreed, good description of what Nintendo is about.

This... Both PS and Microsoft are WAY too dependant on games like Fortnite and Apex Legends. Nintendo has consistently put out family friendly games that are desirable for all ages for years now.

Maybe, but at least I know who that is without using Google, lol.

Rad Racer was a seriously fun game, they need to bring it back!

Except Nintendo still makes high quality games and brings innovative ideas and systems to the table.
- Scabeh

When is the last time they had an original game IP that went big? Pokémon?

They innovate with their systems, sure. Their games are just rehashing the 80's and 90's...and I say that as a fan
