Regardless of what’s considered Nintendo’s best franchise, you cannot argue their impact in making games for children fun for everyone. For decades, Nintendo has created games focused either on strategies for gamers to engage in their critical-thinking skills, or a family-orientated battle-royale game for hours of fun at summer barbecue.

Why Splatoon Is Nintendo's Best Franchise in 2024

Nintendo has a huge cast of characters to pull from, and they constantly release sequels and spin-offs for those brands. That said, Nintendo does create fresh IP as well, but not as often as their sequels. The good news is that Nintendo fans can expect more of both going forward.

Nintendo considering both sequels and new IP

Nintendo has shared a new video on their Play Nintendo channel featuring introductions to some of their classic Mario characters. It highlights various Switch games featuring Mario, Donkey Kong, Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Toadette, and more. This is a compilation of videos that were previously released on the channel for each individual character, so if you’ve seen those before, there’s nothing new for you here. Otherwise, get ready for an overload of upbeat tunes and Switch gameplay footage.

While the Nintendo Direct last week was full of big announcements that made gamers happy and excited for both 2024 and 2025, there were a few things within the presentation that absolutely helped the showcase back in terms of quality. For example, some multiplatform titles didn’t need to be in there, and some reveals didn’t exactly hit the mark. The one that stands out the most on that latter front is Donkey Kong Country Returns HD. This is the second “return” of this title, and fans were honestly hoping for a new DK game entirely. Sadly, it’s about to get even worse for people who weren’t amused by this reveal.

Lucasfilm is looking for a new hit Star Wars series, and it is not afraid to retcon the beloved Rogue One (2016) in order to do so. Disney+ came strong out of the gate in 2019 when the streaming service premiered The Mandalorian and Wandavision as its first live-action Star Wars and Marvel Cinematic Universe series, respectively. Since then, Disney has seen diminishing returns for both Lucasfilm and Marvel Studios, with subsequent series struggling to achieve the same audience numbers and critical acclaim.
