Is Nintendo even able or willing to surprise anymore?

so Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem didn't surprise anyone...? some memories here are short....

That was surprising to me.

also Yoshi's Yarn game looks also totally different then Kriby's Epic Yarn. People love to bitch about the same characters and forget the art styel, aestethics, gameplay mechanics. And still nobody bitches about the first party games from other companies.

Reminds me of this:

Nintendo creates a new style for the same characters to keep them fresh. Sony creates new IP's instead of changing what made a game great.
