This was my primary concern as I saw this year being packed-in with the biggest first party IPs Nintendo could offer - Zelda, Mario Kart, Splatoon and Mario.

They launched with all guns blazing and now I fear they might dry up or rely on low-tier software to sell their console. Pokemon hasn't seen the light of day and Metroid, let's be a little honest here, is nowhere near a system mover.

I recall the 3DS' year 2, after they went all out with 3D Land and MK7.

Those were the biggest releases: Kid Icarus Uprising, Resident Evil: Revelations, New Super Mario Bros. 2, Kingdom Hearts 3D and Paper Mario. And... yup. Nintendo better take full advantage of merging their businesses.
