You're ignoring the upcoming Trine 3 and Splatoon (singleplayer) though. There's also the R & C reboot coming up and Sly might get a new game to tie in with his movie. Oh and Tearaway.

Trine 3 is an indie game, all the others are first party productions and none of them have enticed third party publishers to make similar games.

And it looks better than loads of retail games. First party companies are still publishers, some of the biggest in the industry in fact. Nintendo hasn't made a non-Mario 3D platformer in quite a while. So I hope this and the possible success of Splatoon can change their minds. You can see Good-Feel wants to try their hand at 3D games with the 3D hubworld in Yoshi's Woolly World, at least that's what I take away from it.

I want a 3D DK platformer.
