I definitly think Nintendo needs to create new franchises and styles of games, but so does everyone else. Nintendo is only part of the problem. There may seemingly be "new IPs" on the HD consoles, but most of those games tend to adhere to the same formula anyway, thus making it essentially the same game with a different overlay. An example would be the similarity between games like Medal of Honor/Call of Duty/Battlefied/Socom, etc, or Dynasty Warriors/Heavenly Sword/God of War 3. The real issue isn't new ips, but new types of games altogether with entirely different game mechanics and a fresh and interesting new game world and backstory.
