How exactly is Nintendo Risky lol they have been releasing mostly the same franchises for ages now....No risk involved lol

A motion control Zelda game is risky, and ended bad with bad sales. A linear action Metroid game is risky, and ended bad. A first person 3D Metroid was risky, and it was good. A motion control based console was, a double screen portable device was. A fitness game, an sport demo, a cartoon Zelda, funding new IP like TW101, getting from the graveyard Bayonetta 2.

Just because the game is called Mario or Zelda doesn't mean there are not changes or risk involved. A new IP is a risk if it is a new real IP, not the same last developed game with just another name.
