TC is right. Nintendo is sitting on a gold mine of great IPs and does fuck all with many of them. Sad thing is some of these IPs, like F-Zero, still have interest. I think the Yakuza lead developer said he wouldnt mind working on another entry in the series but its up to Nintendo.

Its really sad that Sakurai gives more love to these characters and franchises than Nintendo themselves. We havent gotten a proper continuation of the Metroid storyline in almost 20 years, correct? The last Kid Icarus game was 8 years ago and before that came, the franchise was basically dead if I recall correctly.

New IPs are great but the old IPs shouldnt be neglected, either. The it didnt sell in the last isnt a valid excuse. Everything sells on the Switch so now is the perfect time to revive IPs. If Fire Emblem can become one of Nintendos bigger franchises, Im sure several of the dead IPs could as well. Many of those IPs were sent to die anyways. Nintendo was incompetent when it came to marketing for a long time. There are people who still think the Wii U is an add on to the Wii because Nintendo failed to convey what the system was supposed to be to the casual audience.
