In this episode I talk about how nintendo never lets any other company use mario. This is a video I made on youtube that I thought would translate well in podcast form.

Nintendo is the only gaming company that never shares its biggest icons. You’ll never see Mario, Zelda, or Donkey Kong show up on another console but you will see other companies begging to get their games on Nintendo’s systems.While PlayStation and Xbox trade titles, Nintendo guards its legacy like a fortress. This video breaks down how that strategy turned Mario, Link, and Pikachu into legends and why Nintendo’s exclusivity is the smartest move in gaming history.
