Well it is the demand, Ubisoft tried with bringing rayman back. Secondly we also expect better looking games...The next main pokemon/mario/Zelda etc must be looking better.

 

I'm starting to think that Nintendo deliberately kept their home consoles lower power then the competition while they waited for mobile chips to catch up performance wise. That way they would not be backtracking when they make their way to mobile devices like the Switch. Nintendo is perfectly fine with last gen performance and will profit better with games made for those specs.
