Is this going to be a really bad year for Nintendo?

It's already being a bad year for Nintendo. Even paper mario seems underwhelming (more like sticker star wich no one really loved instead of TTYD).

Other than these games that we seen on today's direct, I expect absolutly nothing on WiiU but Zelda. So NX imo is the absolute only saving grace for Nintendo this year.

If NX does'nt come out this year, Nintendo will rely purely on ZeldaU and Pokémon Sun/Moon. It will be bad for them, these two games will net them some money, but it will still be a disaster for their fan and even I will think twice before buying a other nintendo console. Remember 2011 when the ONLY game for Wii was Skyward Sword? Wii was barren for months and If I remember correctly it did'nt push a huge amount of ppl to rush and buy a Wii successor.

The current situation is unfair on Nintendo.  Is asking a lot of them to almost solely fly the flag for their systems.  Last few years of the Wii were fairly barren and now the Wii U has been the same.  I think it just shows its too much for 1 single publisher to push a console.  

 

2016 looks pretty barren again but this time we have the NX so maybe they've got a lot of aces hidden up their sleeve for that?
