they should but they cant. too many IPs.


They probably could but honestly it would probably mean scaling back some of their other games. 

As much as I personally like some of these games ... Nintendo totally is over-invested in "weird/nichey Japanese games that don't even sell in Japan".

See: Bayonetta 2, Wonderful 101, Sin & Punishment, Devil's Third, Fatal Frame, gulp yes even Xenoblade etc. 

They'd be better off investing in genre types that are more popular in the West I think, even what's left of the console audience in Japan seems to prefer that. 

Also way too many 2D games ... Mario Maker, ok, at least that's bringing something new and sure to sell, but DKC, Kirby, Yoshi, on top of NSMB/NSLU was overkill. 

Changing their outlook to accomodate Western tastes nearly ruined SE and really messed up the FF franchise. They are better off sticking with what they are known for and not trying to be something they are not.
