Nintendo had an indie-only direct, has moved to Unreal engine, has posted all new eshop releases since last gen, posts trailers all the time, and has continued to build stronger relations with 3rd party and indie devs.

Not every game will do well. Simple as that. Oddworld was a late port targeting the wrong demographics. People can mention the NES and Nintendo's past mistakes, but the past is the past. They now have dev kits for $500, which is a great way to help indie devs develop more games for the system.

What more does Nintendo need to do? Give up all advertising for 1st party content and give it to decades-old games? Their games matter more. It's up to the other developers to make a successful game
