Nintendo gave you the highest selling racing game ever. In return we get Need for Speed Nitro,Wheelspin, Sonic & Sega Allstar Racing, and M&Ms Kart Racing

Nintendo gives you the fastest selling platformer in near 20 years. In return you get a Klonoa remake and the Munchables.

Nintendo gives you the highest selling-fighting game ever. In return we get TMNT Smash Up with 1/3 of the characters and less than half the features and Soul Calibur Legends, which is trash.

Nintendo gives you a system selling Adventure game. In return we get Flip's Twisted World and nothing else.

Nintendo gives you  a near 2 million selling FPA (complemented by the 2 million selling Call of Duty games and Red Steel). In return we get on-rail/lightgun shooters and Rogue Trooper.....

 

What else can Nintendo do besides walk into your company and make the games themselves?

Slowly back away from big third-party publishers, focus on developing relationships with smaller, indie studios, and pump more resources into their existing studios (NST I'm looking at you) to diversify the type of content Nintendo and their second parties put out. It's time to become more self-reliant, simple as that. And Nintendo is in a unique position where if they play their cards right and intelligently divert their considerable financial resources, they can pull it off fantastically. We practically did it during the N64 years with Nintendo and Rare...we can do it again.
