The way this gen has gone for Nintendo i bet 2016 will be a new system unveiling for them. So i say yeah thats it for 2015 and beyond

You don't think there are any more games for Wii U still to be revealed? Wanna bet?

Them making it would be fine if they handed it off to Monster Games or something. Making Retro do it wastes one of their only studios that can create darker content.

Any of their studios could create darker content.

Quality darker content? I don't believe that for a second.

Why? Because they haven't been proven? You know that these are adults, right? They don't sit around playing Mario all day. They know what darker content looks, feels, and plays like.



You forgot Sonic and probably other exclusives in 2014

 

In term of sales ? No, it will be worse than 2014, 2014 has the 2 biggest nintendo system seller Mario Kart and SSB.

In term of quantity, we cant say, Starfox and Zelda could be delayed to 2016, there a lot of delays and since it's the first Zelda as ambitious ( big open world and everything), the delay is very likely.

In term of quality, no, Bayonetta + MK + SSB + DK TF , all that in one year, it's far better than everything in 2015 combined



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

I see no evidence of their capability, I see only an ocean of E-rated content broken only by efforts from Retro and Monolith.

Yeah, and there was no evidence of Retros ability to make a 2D cartoony platformer until DKC Returns. It goes both ways.

Retro are a Western studio, they tend to be more flexible than their Japanese counterparts.



I predict Wii U beginning its peak in the 2015-2016 years. I don't think Nintendo will unveil a new console until after 2017. At the rate they're punching out games its quite feasible that there will be more hidden gems announced in 2015. I'm predicting a return of metroid in 2016 and a triumphant return of F Zero in the same year.

That's not even remotely true. You realize that Super Metroid, the game that inspired and preceded Retro's Prime trilogy, was made by the Japanese, right? Not flexible, my behind.
