More spin offs promised? Keep milking nintendo but your flat out refusal to let your biggest projects be new ips is one of the main reasons wiiu is tanking so hard. Keep milking zelda and mario, lets see how far that takes you.

Cynicism is okay but when they announced a new ip. You words weren't all too kind either. They just can't win.

Edit: Damn you, Rol. Ninja'd. 

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). 

When we look back at the new IPs they've made, they show that you're absolutely right. Dillon's Western, Pushmo, Wii Series, Animal Crossing, Nintendogs, Brain Age, and so ons are eshop games/casual games with little depth and/or barebones visuals. I think Pikmin is pretty much the only one with a AAA budget, or atleast just looks as good as their best efforts at the time.
