Hopefully Nintendo will learn from the mistakes of 2018 and in future years focus more on a steady cadence of new core games throughout the year as they did in 2017 to great effect. They got lazy and arrogant this year and thought they could cruise to 20 million by relying mostly on old ports and B/C tier games while going 13 long months without a proper system seller. They'd better not make that mistake again.

I kinda shake my head about describing a company as lazy. Games take time to make, especially now, regardless of how much man power or money you have. You don't know what the developers are working on in the front-lines. We already got controversy in regards to Rockstar employees working crunch to complete RDR2. We already know Sakurai's notorious work ethic. They'll announce more original projects when they're ready to do so.

The results reflect a company that is not doing enough. If there's a manpower issue, they should hire more devs, expand their teams, contract out to more third parties, buy more second party studios.
