Nintendo will probably won't make a new franchise for long time because they already have established franchises that they know are good and people will recognize the characters and buy the game. Microsoft press conference was terrible. They showed of more of the EyeToy 2.0 and showed some Gears of War 3 and Fable 3. Sony's press conference was really boring so I didn't watch all of it. They talked about Move forever, showed off Killzone 3, brought out Kevin Butler(which was hilarious), then they announced a partnership with Coca-Cola that made no sense.

Just because the franchise has been around for a while doesn't mean it appeals to just Retro Gamers. Maybe if they were still making 8/16-bit games over and over for each new installment of a series or something. It's appealing cuz they're fun. Straight up. They're fun, established, and tickle the imagination.

If anything, 360 appeals to casual gamers. Shootersshootersshootersshooters sportsportsports lightRPGlightRPG.

At the end of the day though, the bottom line is: most games are fun times.

Yeah, that partnership with Coca-Cola was a tad strange... If I remeber correctly they did it to put some of the PS Move things on their bottles? Funny that they choose a fattening soft drink to place their product on .

As to the new franchises not appearing from Nintendo I must agree with Seijika. I think of the 3 Nintendo has the most and the longest running franchises (since they have been in the game for so long). Sony and Microsoft get to make their mark because they are establishing the franchises that will carry their systems long into the future. The only difference is Nintendo made their franchises open ended so they can do whatever they want to what they have and not destroy the original feel of the game (glares at Sega who loves to slaughter their franchises)

On that note of Sega, I am excited for the return to a more retro 2D style Sonic. Bout dang time they stopped making those fail adventure/rpg games. Only one franchise can make good RPG spin offs and thats Mario (icanhassupermariorpg2plox?)
