I personally think Mario should be over with very soon. Not that i don't like Mario, it's just, that the games are starting to get stupid, the only Mario game i think that is good is Super Smash Bros. and Superstar Saga.

JESUS CHRIST THIS IS AN OLD TOPIC. Anyway as previously stated I don't not believe its dying. Its never gonna be as good as the 2D games unless they go back to 2D but Galaxy was the best of the 3D games.

I know Mario is the face of Nintendo, but if they wouldn't abuse him like they are, then the franchise wouldn't die down as fast.

No it's not a dying franchise, I've been getting in my "Mario Phase" lately, along with my "Zelda Phase" since I just got Phantom's Hourglass, that means I've suddenly gotten interested in his games, again, for example, sometimes I'm in my "Sonic Phase", while other times, I'm in my "Pokemon Phase", and others such as my "Metroid Prime Phase", "Kirby Phase", along with others, but right now, I'm in my "Mario Phase" and my "Zelda Phase", usually I'm either in my "Mario Phase", "Zelda Phase", or "Sonic Phase" since I like their games the most out of any game series I play.
Anyway, I say Mario is the best game series ever, along with the Zelda series and Sonic series, their games are by far the best, since they've been around for such a long time, and their old games have been the best games ever, and their games haven't died yet, and alot of gamers still like their new games, and they have been, they still are, and they always will be the greatest game series, EVER!
The most popular game series:
10. GTA (though I don't think so, since all you do is shoot innocent people) 9. Megaman (I guess, since Megaman hasbeen around for a long time, I think) 8. Super Smash Bros. 7. Resident Evil 6. Final Fantasy (lately Final Fantasy's been stealing all the glory) 5. Metroid Prime 4. Pokemon 3. Zelda 2. Sonic 1. Mario
Besides, Paper Mario games are offically my favorite games, ever, and Super Mario Sunshine is pretty good, too! What I'm saying is that Mario's not a dying franchise, his games along with Sonic's and Zelda's have been around for a long time, now, and their games are still fun to play, Mario, Sonic, and Zelda, FOREVER! *light shines and music plays*

It's pretty hard to top the landmark game that was Super Mario 64, but that's partially to do with its simplicity. SM64 used the exact same formula as previous titles, 3-D aside. I felt that the franchise has tried to add too many gimmicks since, especially in Sunshine.
I suppose less is more in the Mario franchise.
The popularity certainly isn't dying with new demographics constantly in the cycle, but the appeal is waning for those of us who have been present since the NES days.

Maybe even Super Mario Galaxy 2: The second Universe...

Galaxy and Brawl will certainly boost the Mario franchise to new levels. Strikers also helped when Nintendo decided to add the online feature. every wii owner is awaiting the release of brawl and galaxy and when nintendo sees just how well the games sell, theyll keep coming out with bigger and better mario titles.
