Release timing matters too.
In September last year, Rayman Legends, Wind Waker HD, and the Wonderful 101 all were released in the same 2 week-ish time frame. This followed a way too long drought.
One sold really well, one could have done better, one flopped. All were great games, but could have sold better if release timing were thought out more carefully.
If Nintendo were willing to money-hat more projects of other studios, they'd be in a better position.
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
