It is interesting that almost everything Nintendo has touched turned to gold during that time period.

Pokemon Go came out of nowhere to become a massive success in 2016.

NES Classic/SNES Classic even had a little burst there of mass popularity and was sold out around the same time.

Switch 1 launched in 2017 and became a massive success.

Animal Crossing launched right at the start of the COVID lockdowns in 2020 and became a monstrous success.

Universal Nintendo theme parks have been successful.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie in 2023 became a massive hit, signaling Nintendo's successful entry into the movie business.

Switch 2 in 2025 has had a monster launch.

It does kinda feel like the company has someone looking over it.
