They severely lack new IPs.

Drag x Drive is the most recent.

Do they though? I mean just look at all the Mario spin-offs. Would it be better if they were new IPs instead of Mario?

It is an arguable point.

Diversification is always important. One day Mario and other characters will be in the public domain. Creating new IP gives you new avenues to exploit. There are more merchandising and spin-off opportunities.
