It will take the length of the generation to do so.
I don't think people realize that Galaxy could still sell 1M copies a year in say, 2010 or 2011. Slowly but surely, the total adds up. (Nintendo had 10 catalog games sell over 1M copies in fiscal 2008, including DS launch games like Mario 64 DS.)
And even with the Mario team working again, they may not make a game to compete with Galaxy. They'll want to shake things up again.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.
