Is Nintendo really innovative? - Other Gaming Forum

Is Star Fox innovative and something that perfects what shooters are suppose to be? Or is it something that devs already did before Star Fox even showed up? Was the non-linear Super Metroid not enough for Nintendo's respect of entertainment that only Nintendo could do something like that? I'm asking this because people don't seem to respect the innovation techniques that Nintendo has and as such claim that someone could have done better? I know I made a thread like this a while ago but that was for interms of respect. This one deals with the innovation wise whether Nintendo's creativity truly matters or not. So what are your thoughts on this?

They were more innovative in the 5th-late 7th gen era, but yes. Nintendo is one of the few game developers that hasn't succumbed to the crap dudebro shooter mentality that the rest of the industry suffers from. But they have succumbed to sequelitis, especially with their platformers. There's very little that Mario, DK, Yoshi, or Kirby has done in the 2010-2014 period that I could call innovative or creative.

I thought Kirby Epic Yarn was creative....
