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.

ARMS is an example of taking a familiar genre type (1 vs 1 3D arena fighter) and putting a Nintendo spin on it, which is fine. They should look at other popular genres and try that, specifically genres that are popular in the West. 

Well they have. WRPGs and Shooters. Maybe they can make more sports and sim racing games.
