How is that the company with the best intellectual properties has the worst developers?

How is it possible that a game like The Last of Us exists on PS3, while a console with better expects like the Wii U still delivers PS2 graphics?

Nintendo needs to hire new developers if they want the NX to success.

I wouldn't judge the potential of the developers on Star Fox.  This seems to be a game that was sent out just to fill a spot and to keep a massive dead zone from forming in the release schedule.  Star Fox was likely built with a limited budget.

If anything, I'd lay most of the responsibility on management.  It seems like there was no ambition behind this and that's a real shame.  Yeah, some people are going to try to justify this by saying it's some kind of throw-back game, that it's supposed to be limited, but Star Fox really deserved a lot more.  Why not bring it forward and do something big and interesting with it?  

You're right---the fault is completely on the budget. These titles are made on a shoestring budget so there is only so much the developers can put into them with the money they have.

It's incredibly disappointing how Nintendo has been half-assing games by giving them tiny budgets recently to pad a release schedule instead of actually investing in them.

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash and Mario Party 10 were also soulless husks that could have been SOOOO much more than they were.
