Description Anyone remember earlier this year when all the nay-sayers were saying that the Wii U would bankrupt Nintendo? Well, I never bought it for a second, but I did wonder about how Nintendo would handle a transition from making their own consoles to relying on "the other guys" to distribute their product. Then I got the idea for the series of comic strips that you see here. Enjoy!

As soon as I started this first strip, I realized it had been ages since I'd drawn Mario. I redrew him in each of these panels several times before I decided to let it be and let my drawing style develop naturally over the course of these comic strips. That's why, if you look closely, it almost looks like Mario was drawn by a different person each panel   By my second or third strip, though, I think I finally got a consistent look for him. 

The rest of these strips can be found here: mcshmoodle.deviantart.com/gall…

Well, look at it this way, Mario - at least you and your buddies are honest about each of your games having a similar core, rather than the formula for other consoles:
Take the basic Call of Duty/Modern Warfare style
Add a coat of futuristic/modern-day/post-apocalyptic paint (your choice)
Mix in a mechanic which doesn't typically go with the FPS genre
Tout it as something completely new and possibly revolutionary
Rinse and repeat

well if anything nintendo won't have that happen for over a decade. financially, even if they did not make a dime, they'd survive for a decade.

I won't believe that Nintendo's gone Bankrupt and I never will even if they NEVER make a dime.

Yeah, as soon as I heard that statistic, I could never take the doomsday predictions of Nintendo seriously
