Many of us would love Nintendo to stick to core games only, but its just not going to happen. Best we can hope for is a BOTW every 5 years with some DKC, Mario Odyssey and Splatoon like games sprinkled in every now and then.

This is a problem then, because they need to get games like BOTW out more often than that. 

It's not just BoTW either ... Splatoon was made in like 2 years flat ... so you can create games that appeal to a new generation of gamers and not require 5 years.

They would also be well advised to make sure Mario Odyessy is the GOTY type candidate and not accept anything less. 

They should look at other genre types that are popular today too, I mention FPS', ARMS looks like a decent take on the Street Fighter concept. 

ARMS is not anything like Street Fighter. Even Smash Bros is way closer to it.

They wont make anything close to BOTW with any other franchise than Zelda. Its just too time-consuming and expensive for them I think.

Sure Splatoon did well and now we get Splatoon 2 instead of the team making something new. They are just the Splatoon team now. Nothing else until that franchise is slowing down.

This is just how Nintendo works. Why spend 4-5 years making a big epic game, when you can make 5 casual ones in that time that will cost WAY less combined. At least we are getting games like BOTW, Mario Odyssey and XC2. Maybe a few more big games, but nothing close to BOTW other than the next big Zelda.
