Why doesn't Nintendo make more games for it's systems?

Well...they develop far more games for it's consoles than Microsoft and Sony do. It's not even close really. The problem is, they don't have third party support and they don't develop enough games to compensate for it.

their games arnt as demanding though. I dont talk about fun/gameplay and so on. Just about things which just need alot ressources.

 

A game like Uncharted 4 couldnt be handeld by Nintendo. Their biggets project yet was zelda skyward sword where around 100 people worked on.

 

This is nothing compared to other aaa production from the past.

Witcher 3: 300 people

GTA V: 500 people

 

Nintendos problem is, they are the only publisher supporting the wii u at the moment, but they are even smaller as a random third party publisher from the other systems (ea, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Taketwo/Rockstar). And the other systems have multiple third party publisher + some first party studios as well. And if even one of those are bigger as nintendo its ridiclous. but its the truth, and thats why the wii u is failing.

Nintendo is still doing awesome things with their capazities though. Splatoon is for me one of the best games this gen, and certainly not made by more then 50 people. AN Assassins creed unity made by 100´s of people is far inferior.

I don't know why people always forget about Xenoblade. Monolithsoft is a Nintendo owned, first party developer, who has around 123 employees. While not as big as some other studios, they often make games in a longer period of time (5 years) and  make very large games. Xenoblade X will most likely be the largest game on the Wii U (much larger than Zelda) and may end up larger than some other games on other platforms (other open world games on current platforms)
