Retro is still around?

Why wouldn't they be?

The West has over 10 times the population of Japan. Targeting games at a more Western audience is simply good business sense. This is the approach Sony and Microsoft have taken, and as a result PS4 and Xbox One have trounced the Wii U.

Listen I agree that the western market is bigger than the Japanese, but I would rather Nintendo do games like Splatoon which puts their take on a online multi-player king of the mountain experience. Zelda BoTW is a good indication of Nintendo making an open world adventure, but in no way would I want them to clone some other game.

I like new IP's as much as the next person, but most of Nintendo's IP's that they barely touch are sought after to revisit more so than just creating something new. Kid Icarus could easily be Nintendo's hack-n-slash God of War franchise and I would much rather they do something with that IP than create something similar. These established franchises have history and value that not a lot of Sony games hold up during the test of time. This is also why SmashBros is such a hit because these characters have value...

It's not about "cloning another game", it's about adding diversity to their catalogue by making the kind of games they are currently lacking.
