So then what you're saying is that no company has created an original franchise in the last... Ever, because everything was invented before.

Xenoblade. It came out a copule of month ago, and it was awesome.

EDIT: There's also Steel Diver, which wasn't great (or rather, not nearly enough to justify a full price) but still came out this year and was an original IP. So that's two original releases in the last year.

In business terms it's more profitable to shovel creative energy into ideas under the guise of an established franchise. Until their fanbase stops buying crap with Mario in the title they'll keep doing this instead of trying something different.

For anyone doing the whole: Something existed before the games came out, so it doesn't count... I have something for you

Lives existed before you did, so YOU DON'T COUNT...

Also, Wii Sports isn't a franchise, it's just a style of game...
it's like saying Mario Sports are a franchise...

Wii sports belong more to Wii games (those games with Wii in the title) which is a franchise on its own... but they aren't altogether original... Wii Play, Wii Music, Wii Sports, etc... yeah... not all too original...

Nintendo sports games did exist before the Wii, though. Old school Nintendo used to have games named in the Atari fashion of one word describing literally what it was. Like, "Baseball," "Ice Hockey," etc.

One time my dad needed something to add to his order to get Super Saver shipping, but there was nothing else he wanted to buy that would get it to $25. So I told him to add Monado because it was never gonna come out so he would never actually have to pay for it.

I don't think he ended up doing it, but dammit that was a good idea.
