Nintendo did (and did well) practically every genre in videogame history. Even horror, with Eternal Darkness.

Uhhh...Eternal Darkness was made by Silicon Knights. Nintendo just published it.

Mostly, but not 100% true.

For example, the Sanity meter was a Nintendo concept, hence why they own the patent for it.

 

Nintendo also owned a good chunk of SK at the time.  Hell, Dyack used to say SK *was* Nintendo.

Ahhh... so that explains a lot of the development being considered "nintendo" in articles i read about it.  I thought it was just shoddy website reporting.

Nintendo still holds a (small) stake in SK even today.  Kinda surprising, I'd have figured they would've sold it off by now.
