I have not played anything from ND except for Crash, so I can't make a judgement.
One thing I do want to mention is that I wish would Nintendo give the importance Sony gives ND to Retro. DKCR is one of the best games of all time IMO.
EDIT: Yoshi's Island DS was... how to put it nicely? Garbage. Awfully designed. Abysmal. Unplayable. Uninspired. Made my ears bleed. One of the worst games Nintendo has ever published. Had Artoon made DKCR, it wouldn't have been 1/100th as good.
