After reading that article:
I can't believe I lived long enough to see them kill Super Maro Bros.
If the very first Mario movie didn't kill SMB, then this won't either.
I don't care if Mario games sell more per capita they ever did in SMB 1, 2, 3, SMW, or whatever. It's no longer the same franchise, having been replaced by a bastardization of what the storyline and characters were originally about.
While I agree with your analysis, Nintendo is fucking notorious for milking every cent out of a franchise. Even after it's dead.
SMB may be dead, but you're going to be seeing it's shambling corpse for quite some time.
