Re: I don't like this name

In Response To: Re: I don't like this name (MacGyver10)

: Mario gimped its 2-player action with Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy
: (and they both were top sellers).

They didn't sell as well as SMB3, though. In fact, SMB3 was the best-selling game not originally bundled with a system until GTA: San Andreas came out. 3D Mario games never sold as well as 2D Mario games. SMB3 sold over 17 million copies. SM64 sold about 11.9 million and Galaxy sold about 12.6 million. Meanwhile, New Super Mario Bros. Wii has sold nearly 30 million copies. So, a good argument can be made that switching from two-player 2D games to single-player-only 3D games did hurt the series.
