Yes, Nintendo desperatly needs to waste few millions on new IP nobody will care or it will generate significantly smaller ROI than new mainstream Mario game. Anything to please the fans and raise its self-esteem as the coolest kid on the block.


They desperately need a new kind of IP that can bring in consumers that beyond just what Mario/Zelda do. And they need to actually put some marketing muscle behind said franchise.

Sony has done it with Uncharted and again with The Last of Us, and even MS invested a lot into the Gears franchise.

Time for Nintendo to step up with something new.

 

So apparently you've never heard of Xenoblade Chronicles? Or the Wonderful 101? Or The Last Story or Pandora's Tower (which they published in Japan). Or Professor Layton? Or Wii Sports/Fit/Music/Party? Or Steel Diver? Or the Brain Age/Brain Academy games? Or Nintendogs? Or Rhythm Heaven? Or Endless Ocean? Or Flingsmash? Or Sin & Punishment? Or Pikmin? Or Chibi Robo? Or Golden Sun? Or Nintendo Land?

 

Just saying. They have come out with a lot of new IPs, both internally developed as well as many made by outside studios but published by Nintendo themselves.


Yeah, thats what Nintendo has always done Wii casual games and Kinected aren't one of them. Pikmin and what Excite Truck are one of the only true new IP's?
