Oops, almost forgot to respond to this.

First, you make a lot of assumptions as to how much involvement Miyamoto takes in his projects. Given how I don't work at Nintendo (I assume this is the case with you as well), we can never truly know how much of an impact he had on starfox and the project games.

What I do know, is that Nintendo as a whole is messing up. Aside from splatoon, most of the latest releases we've had have been abysmal or lackluster, including mario ultra smash, starfox zero, starfox gaurd, triforce heroes, and paper jam. For the sake of the discussion, I will assume that Miyamoto is now more involved with business. If so, why did he allow these games to continue in their direction? He could have forced starfox to have more than one control scheme (to help marketing). He could have put pressure on ultra smash to have more content (to help sales). He has all this power within the company and yet the company's home console is struggling to outsell the dead vita.

And before we go off and talk about his role in movie and theme park arrangements, we have yet to see if his work in those fields is actually good (Nintendo may fail in those areas).

Whatever his work is now pales in comparison to the revolutionary strides he set in the past. Therefore I think he has lost his touch

Perhaps any and all efforts this year are being put towards making the NX a success hence the dry spell this year? That better be the case if you ask me.

I'm not doing anymore "assumptions" when it comes to Nintendo.

I was an early adopter of the wii u with assumptions like: third party will be decent (not necessarily the best), there wouldn't be droughts, and that we'd get an exclusive Zelda, animal crossing, and metroid.

That being said, I will be checking to see if they are able to make a comeback with the NX
