Top 5 New Franchises that feel Old

Zelda, Mario, Metroid, Megaman, Castlevania, Kirby, Donkey Kong. These are all legendary gaming series, and all because they've been producing amazing games for amazingly long times. While Link, Mario and Samus have been working their asses off for more than 20 years to keep us entertained, there are some new franchises that keep you entertained too.

Then, there are the new games that you play once, then they immediately get whored out so much that you end up hating them.

This is those games.

Honourable Mentions:
Nintendogs: Cute at first, now annoying.
Cooking Guide: I don't need a game to act like a cookbook for me.
LEGO anything: Where's LEGO Grand Theft Auto? Now that's something I'd play...
Cooking Mama: (OMFG! I unl00cked teh rolling pin!!11)

5) Trauma Centre (Wii + DS)

While this game was ok a while, it really came down to on thing: providing a use for the Wiimote. And while it worked, for a while, it quickly became boring to operate on nonexistant people...
Also, did anyone else see the news that this game was being used as practise for doctors in medical school? I'm not sure about you, but I sure as hell wouldn't feel safe getting onto an operating table, breathing in some anaesthetic, and the last thing I hear before I fall asleep is:

"Don't worry, I did this on 6 virtual patients this morning... and 2 survived!"

4) Brain Training (Wii + DS)

This is Nintendo's way of saying 'Fuck you' to the hardcore, in fact, to ANY gamer who isn't a lonely 30 year old woman with more money than brains. What we saw when we got the DS was the opportunity to make games similar to the GBA, but with better graphics, 3D environments, and a touch screen. What we got was the ultimate casual game. Being told that you're smart will never be enough when you know that if you're playing the game, you're already stupider than anyone on Earth who is NOT playing the game.
Seriously, the final screen of the game must say something like,
"Congratulations! You are now smart enough to realise that this is a complete waste of time and doesn't actually make you smarter at all. We just liked messing with ya!"

3) Guitar Hero (Everything)

Don't get me wrong, I like Guitar Hero, but I liked it a lot better before it started whoring itself everywhere. Now that you can play clones of it online, play it on mobile phones, and even on the DS (warning: craptastic) it's hard to get excited over anything to do with this series any more.
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, Guitar Hero: Metallica, Guitar Hero: REM (Yes, it was announced at E3).
Stop doing this to yourself, Guitar Hero! You used to be special! Now you've released 10 games in 2 years, I just can't get excited about anything you do.

2) Imagine (DS)

If you haven't heard of this series, I don't blame you, but after seeing some vomit-inducing commercials for it, I was well and truly finished with everything to do with the DS. MARKETTING A GAME SYSTEM AT GIRLS IS NOT GOING TO WORK THIS WAY!
Nobody wants to play 'Imagine: Teacher' where you play as a teacher and have exciting schedules such as tidying a room, or marking a test.
Then there's 'Imagine: Babies'. That's right. If you want to raise a virtual baby on a $150+ handheld and game now you can!
Looking at the wikipedia page, I'm surprised the series hasn't been killed yet, what with a grand total of 16 games, including 'Imagine: Fashion Designer' and 'Imagine: Masterchef'
SWEET JESUS, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU UBISOFT? NOBODY WANTS TO PRETEND TO BE A TEACHER OR A FASHION DESIGNER, ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE TO FECKING PAY FOR IT! WHAT MADE YOU THINK THIS WAS POSSIBLY A GOOD IDEA?
Lay this series to rest before we lose all faith in you, Ubisoft.

1) (You all saw this coming) Wii ANYTHING.

WiiSports: Well, this is pretty boring after a while, but I guess it's what the Wiimote was made for. I guess playing tennis isn't so bad for a few minutes.

WiiPlay: It's better than WiiSports, I guess... As long as we get something cool soon.

WiiFit: Well, going outside for a walk for about 10 minutes gets you more exercise than this... so it doesn't really get you fit, but it tells you it does... that's got to be worth something, right?

WiiChess: Ok, they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel now...

WiiMusic: For fuck's sake Nintendo, you'd better be giving us something good soon to make up for this pile of shit, ESPECIALLY as you had the nerve to unveil it at E3.

WiiSports Resort: NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

Seriously Nintendo, just wait and see how many people buy 'WiiSports 4'. No wonder the 360 is catching up to your selling rates. Fast.

Well, there are my top 5 new franchises that already feel like they've been run into the ground.
