I am surprised by the lack of Nintendo X Lego games.

How many of the 3rd party ventures Nintendo had this gen with the WiiU were fully or partially funded by them? I know Bayonetta 2 was funded by Nintendo, but I don't know how it was for Hyrule Warriors or SMTxFE. Were those funded by Nintendo in any proportion?

I dont know. Whats your point?

Well, Hyrule Warriors was a pretty great success for both Nintendo and Tecmo Koei (I don't know how well SMTxFE did). Whether Nintendo invested funds in HW or not, the game did a pretty decent profit for a medium-tier game, and we'll probably see a sequel to it on the Switch. My point is, even if Nintendo has to somewhat invest in funds on a Nintendo Lego game (which it wouldn't be that much money, even if fully funded, which I doubt Nintendo would allow), the game would still sell well enough to grant a profit for both parts. Nintendo games sell well, Lego games sell well, so the crossover wouldn't be a flop, at least. Like I said, a Nintendo Lego game is a pretty safe bet.
