I think the trend is already in place, Nintendo is trying to milk every franchise and doesn't care much about quality. 

Paper Mario: Color Splash - Metacritic 76
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse - Metacritc 73
Star Fox Zero - Metacritic 69
Mario Party 10 - Metacritic 66
Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 - Metacritic 65
Wii Party U - 65
Game & Wario - 61
SiNG PArty - Metacritc 60
Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash - Metacritic 58
Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 - Metacritic 55
Pokemon Rumble U - Metacritic 49
Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival - Metacritic 46
Devil's Third - Metacritic 43

Yeah ! Let's put some examples to show my point even though I decided to omit a lot of good titles which show that Nintendo cares about quality games ...

+ You could argue easily with some of these games ( SFZ,Kirby, PM CS ) that they put care and efforts with it.

And I'm not saying your wrong at all ( MP 10, Mario tennis Ultra Smash, M&S, etc ... ) but you're definitely overextending it bc you want this picture of Nintendo fit you view of things.

I only included Nintendo published game that have a low Metacritic. Game like Mario Tennis, Animal Crossing & Paper Mario .... all used to be 80's or better. 

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash sold for full retail price and it just doesn't have the polish or quality standard that you are used to from Nintendo.

Worst version ever of the game were on 3DS and WiiU.
