After doing a little more digging, Wii also got FIFA in 2013 and 2014, and it's last game was actually in 2020; a cool little retro-style GTA spoof called Shakedown Hawaii that I am actually considering getting now, cos it looks kinda fun plus the novelty of it being the final Wii game. It did fall off quite steeply, even before it was replaced really, but I'd still say its post-launch support was better than Gamecube, or N64/Wii U. Nintendo platforms tend to be retired in fairly short order; I expect Switch will probably be the new post-replacement champ for them, as while I don't expect its crossgen period to be nearly as extensive as PS4/XBO due to its harsher power limitations, its massive install base means it will likely still be getting lots of smaller games for years after the successor hits. |
All Nintendo Handhelds say No! Nes had ~ 10 years. It was the SNES, the N64 and the WiiU that got axed right after tge sucessor came out. |
I said "tend to", not "always". Some Nintendo systems had decent support post-replacement, but most of the time they move on relatively quickly, even on the handheld side the DS for instance didn't have much longevity after the 3DS came out.
As SanAndreasX points out, SNES actually had some life left in it post-N64, getting games like Donkey Kong Country 3, Kirby's Dreamland 3, and Harvest Moon, plus in Japan support all the way to the year 2000.
