Mario and Nintendo

[retrolinkx]

To be honest, I think Nintendo don't want to risk something new in case it fails, so they have to do soemthing that will get money they need, won't cost much, and will be another game for the fans, Mario fits in fine, since it's a tried and true formula, so people will play it, it doesn't cost much the make since they've used the engine before and know how it works, and since the fans love it and it's a fun game it works on all ends.

I think when this recession goes, they might start taking some risks.
