I think Soundwave is right, the majority of us Nintendo simply don't give a shit about mainstream 3rd party titles.

Games like Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed, Grand Theft Auto, Sports games simply don't appeal to me, I own a Wii U & 3DS so there is literally never any droughts when it comes to Nintendo published software, indies and niche Japanese games.

That or the majority of "us" Nintendo fans also own a Playstation and/or XBox. 

I probably spend more money on Nintendo than anyone on this site and have been a Nintendo hardware owner since 1989, but I've also not been a "Nintendo-only" console consumer since the Super Nintendo days. 

If I had chosen to be "Nintendo only", I would have gone crazy during the N64 drought days or the given up on gaming with the Wii and all its casual shovelware. 

I love Nintendo, but there's no way in hell I'd only buy a Nintendo console. It wouldn't meet all my needs for gaming diversity. 

That's true as well, the last 2 generations I have bought a Playstation near the end of the generation to play the Sony exclusives and select 3rd party games that appeal to me and I'll probably do the same this generation and pick up a PS4 in the next year or two. My point is that someone could realistically own just Nintendo devices and never have droughts.
