A lot of those aren't entirely new games though. A lot of them are remakes, or the late coming 3rd game of a generation. So IMO the games I crossed off shouldn't count. So they are basically up to 9 games, and a bunch of remakes, reworks, and spinoffs. |
They count because they still take time and manpower.
Pokemon Sun/Moon was stated to have a team of about 150 people and began development after OR/AS, that's 2 years.
Aonuma claimed that Breath of the Wild had a team of 300 people and took 4 years.
Mario Odyssey had a team of around 150 people and was in development since 3D World released so about 4 years.
Sakurai stated that Smash Ultimate started development in late 2015 so 3 years and had "hundreds of people".
Those games you compared to either had a much bigger team, a much longer development or both.
