When does a new entry makes sense?

The gaming world is full of franchises. As soon as a new IP appears, people are already curious to know about the next game. Nintendo is basically the king in that realm, being the owner of incredibly popular franchises like Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, and others. Because of that, fans often we expect sequels from Nintendo, praying to see a new entry in one of our favorite franchises.

In today’s video, I discuss Nintendo’s different approaches for a sequel and consider when a new game makes sense for a franchise – all of that in the context of the soon to be released Splatoon 3. Feel free to check the video and share your opinion below.

In our previous video, we celebrated the recent launch of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 with some thoughts about the RPG, which you can find here. We also shared a video here talking about why the series is so good even though it may initially seem complex to some. For those looking for non-Xenoblade content, head on over here in which we ranked all of the titles that have been made between Nintendo and PlatinumGames.
