Nintendo needs new IPs now more than ever

I appreciate the condescending attitude but that's not what I meant. Look at Titanfall, it appeals to the Call of Duty crowd but it does enough things differently to stand on it's own, hell, it's even brought FPS fans back into the genre. Similar enought to appeal to the same crowd, but different enough to be unique. What about World of Warcraft, it was similar to Everquest, but it became it's own thing and was hugely successful as a result. I'm not saying Nintendo should copy Uncharted and Call of Duty, the should use them as inspiration.

The problem with this is that Nintendo has two competitors that thrive on pushing the notion that Nintendo products are inferior; and most of the targeted audience is gullible and easily manipulated. Nintendo has already gone through this program with the GameCube which had exclusive Resident Evil games that didn't help Nintendo's cause.

RE4 did pretty well on Gamecube, but that wasn't a new IP. It was an established series that had the majority fanbase on a different platform. It was also hurt by the PS2 version being announced before the Gamecube version was even released. And if Nintendo's competitors are smearing it's name then maybe Nintendo should try that too. People loved it when Sony attacked Microsoft at E3.
