Yes, and Sony depended on platformers during the PS2 days. 

Nintendo can make whatever the heck it wants. Sure, they havn't done anything like those kinds of games yet (Excluding the Xeno series, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, and Majoras Mask/Twilight Princess) but neither did Sony. They focused on platformers, and when demand for shooters and aventure games came, they changed. If this gen proves to Nintendo that they need to change their philiosphy on what gamers demand, then they'll change. 

Wow... first of all the shooter developers have mostly always been shooter companies. Insomniac made R&C and disrupter game before they were named insomniac before making Resistance. Naughty Dog made the Jak series before making Uncharted. Guerilla Games first game was a vietnam game and then Killzone before they became a part of Sony. Zipper made Death Drome, Top Gun, Recoil, Mech Warrior, and Crimson skies before SOCOM with Sony.

Ah, Socom. Such a shame you had to go. While it's obvoius that these games had shooting implemented, no one can deny that R&C and J&D are platformers, although more explosive ones. But just like that, it can be said that Nintendo games can change too. Metroid 3 was 1st person shooting, other m was a 3 way mix, Zelda has its sword fighting, Kid Iccarus is fast based 3rd person shooting, Star Fox Adventures was 3rd person shooting part time.

 

What I'm trying to say is that Nintendo CAN change, they just never had a reason to. If People demand change, Nintendo will show its corporate side and change. And if the changes create games that bring people to buy consoles, as The Last Of Us and Halo did for PS3/Xbox, then Nintendo will gain the Wii U's success.
