I think in regards to expecting high sales, yes. Nintendo is also held to a unrealistic standard when people expect there to be as many diverse IPs as there was during the GCN and Wii.
I am not justifying Nintendo taking forever with Metroid, Pikmin, a main series Animal Crossing, dropping F-Zero, etc. But what I am saying is that the market changes over time. I do hope Nintendo realizes that the Switch has the largest core audience by number of any of their platforms in probably a while. Thus, hopefully they revive F-Zero, make a Star Fox game that people actually like, make a Paper Mario people like, etc.
