i dont think you understand my point. i didnt criticize splatoon for being a new IP nor did i criticize nintendo for making it. in fact, you bringing this up just reinforces my point. look at the bolded part, and then tell me, is spaltoon on the same scale and ambition as the new zelda they are making? are they putting the same effort in it as they are doing with Smash Bros? no, they arent. and thats my point, nintendos new ips arent being part of their bigger projects, they are playing it safe, which in result is earning them a moddest return. my point in that thread was that spaltoon, while it looks good, isnt as a big or ambitions project as other big TPS games out there like SO or the division for example, yet it was recieving as much attention, is that because its a TPS made by nintendo (which is something out of the usual).

Explain then, why is Nintendo is aiming for splatoon to be the mario kart of the genre?

Why was Splatoon a large part of their E3 showcase?

Did you ever consider that Splatoon was getting so much attention (over Division and SO) is because it is part of Nintendo's bigger projects (hence the positive media coverage)? The exact point your are whining about now?
