Why are people bringing up Xbox and PS? I don't care about MS or Sony, I care about Nintendo. "Others are having droughts too" doesn't make it better.

Again, Nintendo have bought tons of studios but they don't seem to be putting them to work effectively since the same thing keeps happening. What wombat123 says is probably correct, that they had them extend the lifespan of the 3DS last year, and now we're seeing a lower output because of that.

Or maybe their 3DS teams are still getting used to developing HD. You can get the training but you gotta develop the games. Games in HD or higher take time and with Nintnedo’s philosophy, they want to make sure the gameplay works out then make sure the graphics get up to speed with the console they’re dealing with. Look at AlphaDream. They’re trying to get recruitment now as they probably got something going gameplay-wise for a Switch game.

And Monolith Soft just got a third studio. But games aren’t gonna pour out of that studio right away.
