It's not just droughts but the games that Nintendo makes as well. While they make games that appeals to hardcore NIntendo fans, they don't really make the kinds of games that appeals to the Playstation and Xbox crowd. If Nintendo wants to create new Nintendo fans then they need to diversify their library of games. They don't have to stop making games like Mario and Splatoon, but they also could use something a little more mature themed like a Gears or Uncharted type of game.
Nintendo wants to be the Disney of video games, but they are doing a piss poor job as even Disney has brands like Marvel and Star Wars to expand their film lineup outside animated movies for kids.

Nintendo has other franchises that they tried. Bayonetta, TW101, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Devil's 3rd, not to mention getting exclusives like Zombi U. Its not like they just decided to do only family oriented games. They did lots of different things. Its not their fault that it didn't fly.

Let's be honest here outside Bayonetta 2 most of those games were either mediocre, or too Japanese niche (Xenoblade).
Bayonetta 2 is a good start and Nintendo should continue to make even more quality games aimed at gamers who enjoy more mature themed content.
