The issue too is I think people are just not as hyped for Nintendo games anymore.

When Twilight Princess came out, it was a HUGE hit and had TONS of hype. When Super Mario Galaxy came out, people were anticipating it GREATLY. Super Smash Bros. Brawl had midnight launches that went around malls.

On the other hand, Skyward Sword came and went. Most people don't even know Super MArio 3D World is out. The hype for Smash Bros. Wii U is nil.

Nintendo just doesn't have the punch it used to. Donkey Kong Country Returns came out when the Wii was hot and people were actually WAITING for a new DKC game. Today, hardly anyone cares (unfortunately).


It isn't the game, it's the marketing. Unlike the Wii games, Nintendo is hiding every game they made now behind a Nintendo direct and expecting a miracle where those things replace real effective marketing.

Once Cammie left, they lost.
