Yeah if Switch is going to be successful long term, they need more games like Splatoon and Breath of the Wild; fresh and forward-thinking projects that appeal to today's mainstream gamer, rather than the kind of conservative, living-in-the-past kind of projects they made far too many of on Wii U, like Starfox Zero, Ultra Smash, NSMBU, and even to a lesser extent 3D World and Tropical Freeze.

Fortunately, it does look like they're off to a good start with games like Mario Odyssey.

Agreed Splatoon and Breath of the Wild is the way forward for Nintendo. Instead of shunning modern game mechanics, they embrace them and are still uniquely Nintendo. 

And the audiences you attract from said games are a reliable base of consumer going forward ... unlike the audience you get from Wii Sports/Fit/Nintendogs/Brain Training. 

Nintendo can make Splatoon games for the next 10-20+ years now, BoTW can be the basis for Zelda games for the next 10-15 years. 

How about a first person shooter franchise, eh Nintendo? 

or 1 2 Switch?
