The fact remains is that there wasn't a single EAD/Retro/main line Nintendo studio developed game announced in 2015 for 2016 at all. It's pretty freaking obvious that the next Animal Crossing for example got moved to whatever NX and Nintendo instead chose to give the Wii U some crappy Amiibo Animal Crossing spin-off made largely be ND Cube. The main EAD Tokyo group that developed Mario 3D World has been free since 3D World (Captain Toad was made from the smaller EAD Tokyo group, not the main team) ... where is their next Wii U project? Where is Retro's next project? I'll bet dollars to donughts they have been working on NX for a long time now. |
Nintendo EAD released several titles in 2014 and 2015. "Not a single one" - Star Fox is co-developed with Nintendo, The legend of Zelda Wii U, Pikmin 4 both beeing worked in-house and already announced.
You do realise that games need a 2 year development cycle? You arent going to make next-generation game in one year.
You guys are making stuff up. Just stop it already. There is no proof. Your proof is: they havent announced new stuff since last E3 (but they released several titles, how interesting). You are passing co-developed games as completely outsourced. Its this amazing grasping at straws and half truths if not lies exagerated. EAD will have new games for this year i'm sure. But 4 next generation titles developed in-house? Don't make me laugh. Nintendo announce their projects 6 months before release in a regular rule. The exception was the Wii U january direct and Zelda at E3. These were efforts to spurt sales of the Wii U. Currently they have 2 games announced and one that leaked.
More straws to grab at? Not to mention that we are assuming in this theory that they don't even care about the 3DS or a new portable anymore.
