Because why spend millions upon millions of dollars on games when games like Super Mario, Mario Kart, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, Zelda, Smash Bros. etc. basically outsell all Sony games. Would not make sense business wise. Im sure they would still make some at first, but they would probably bank more on the cheaper games that sell more for the same price as their AAA games.

By your logic Nintendo should never make Metroid, Fire Emblem, Donkey Kong, Pickmin, Paper Mario, Splatoon or any of their "mid tier" ips. They should focus only in 30M sellers games. Many Playstation IPs are Very successful and able to reach close, or surpass, the 20M line, like GoW, Last of Us or Horizon, they are all much bigger than mid tier Nintendo IPs.

Yeah and where are the Playstation mid tier games at now? Nintendo doesnt care about Sony IPs and Sony only cares about money. At least thats how it feels like in this Jim Ryan era.
