The west likes Shooters, more specifically, first person multiplier shooters. Nintendo needs to create a great multiplier shooter with modern or futuristic combat.

They could easily expand the Metroid universe by creating a Halo type series with the Galactic Federation.

Yea because we need more of those on the market.

someone made this refference earlier but im going to do it also.   If Nintendo did the same shit as everyone else just like in the music industry we would not of had kings of their decades and genres like Nirvana, Hendrix, Elvis, if everyone played the same bubble gum goody good bullshit then we would not have originality and everything would be the same. Just like with Shooters if Nintendo made their own western shooter how would it stand out? It wouldn't because its just following the crowd in his suite and tie like everyother god damn wallstreet sheep.

Using your music example, having a console without a shooter is like a band without a guitar.  It's a key component in today's market, and a component Nintendo pioneered with Goldeneye and Turok.  Nintendo needs a shooter.  Having one may not win over consumers, but not having one is pushing them away.  They need games in these key genres so that their unique software can push people over the top to purchase... without lamenting what's missing on the platform.
