Wasted? They say that the massive, big team, several years in development Zelda BOTW needs to sell 2 million to make a profit. Imagine how much profit Splatoon, MK8 and Mario Maker made with between 3-6 million sold each...

There's oppurtunity cost too, I'm sure there are suits at Nintendo who feel all those games should've sold 2-4 million more copies. 

I can see that for Mario Maker, but not for MK8 and Splatoon. I honestly doubt anyone at Nintendo thought Splatoon, for example, would sell more than 1.5m-2m LT.
