“…relying on past success isn’t inherently wrong…”

Pokémon is literally burning and Nintendo won’t do a damn thing about it because they’re too busy trying to sue Palworld into oblivion.

Thats funny because megaman was created by Akira Kitamura and not Keiji Inafune. Inafune who almost sank capcom when he was one of the heads of capcom, who tried to make his own company and used megaman (a character he did not creat but stole the credit too) steal money from others with mighty number 9

Keiji inafune did not creat megaman. Dont kno why people claim he did when he was just on the art team and his job was just to make more art for the game

The issue is that these giant AAA studios dont make smaller games AT ALL anymore. Everything is a full-budget, blockbuster, blowout. They dont learn anything, or take any chances. They just pump out the same nonsense.

Probably bringing back the “AA” would help this as a way to keep budgets low enough for companies to encourage creativity
