At their development speed they'll have to release their next game on the Wii Us successor (if there is one) anyway, so that means building up a new set of key skills and groundwork to build up.

If that studio didn't help with other Nintendo titles it would probably not be able to finance itself, at all.

They are a first party studio, I'm pretty sure Nintendo is the one financing them

Right, what I meant is if they didn't help with those other games then Nintendo would have no reason to keep them as a first party studio. 120 people whose best selling game didn't even break a million and who take forever to get their own games out, what's the point of keeping a studio like that? That's like Sony keeping Team ICO.
