Just off the top of my head ... Super Mario Galaxy 3 - EAD Tokyo wrapped on Mario 3D World in fall 2013, given that it takes them on average about 2 years to deliver a new 3D Mario, summer/fall 2016 should be more than overdue for a new 3D Mario. Animal Crossing Next - IMO this skips the Wii U. Nintendo themselves admits the series works better on handheld and it sells much better on handheld. Could be a no brainer launch title for the NX fusion concept. Luigi's Mansion 3 - Next Level wrapped LM2 in March 2013 ... they haven't delivered Nintendo a game in quite some time (that's almost 2 years ago now). Whenever Nintendo sells 3+ million of any game, a sequel is almost always immediately greenlit ... remember when people though Nintendo would let the DKC series rest for Metroid Prime 4? Nope, Retro was put right back on another DKC, which is pretty much Nintendo's standard operating procedure. Mario Kart 9 - Might be more of a reach for 2016 ... but not impossible. Nov/Dec 2016 launch would give them 2 1/2 years of development time, which is about the same gap of time between MK7 and MK8. Ignoring the elephant in the room which might also be the next Zelda launching for both NX and Wii U, like Twilight Princess did. |
That isn't enough to entice gamers to go out and buy the console in a mad rush. This will only get the core buying it.
They need a FPS, a racing sim, sports games. RPG, and so on ontop of that list to give enough variety to entice people.
If your list is the launch window then the system is doomed from day one.
