If Nintendo is going to create more new IP, then they should feel like new IP. Splatoon knocks it out of the park in this regard; an exciting new gameplay concept built around accessible controls and a rethinking of the shooter genre...that to me is a new IP. I also think this is a reason why Nintendo is hesitant to create more new franchises, because they would simply feel too similar to their existing properties.
