It'd be nice if they made full fledged games that they felt confident in selling some of their new ideas in stores, but they are making new IPs.

I can't consider these small eShop games at all, really. This is pretty much what I said about not taking any chance at all. This is totally playing it safe. They're not bad games, but they're also not really memorable. They feel like nice small fun minigames, rather than games. Well, maybe Sakura Samurai and Dillon's do look like more complete games, but still, nobody gave a shit about Sakura Samurai at all. Even Harmoknight which was just out in Japan (and I want it so bad) I can't consider new IP.

We need the next Pikmin. Since Pikmin, all new IPs were Nintendogs and Miis, that's not very creative is it? While Kriven has a point, if they were focusing on creating new interesting games in the first place (new IPs!!!! I hate throwing this word around, but really) and not re-using old characters, we would have more interesting things.

Again, I love Nintendo. I loved Skyward Sword, which is kinda bad in a lot of ways. I loved Galaxy 2, NSMBWii, whatever (just not NSMB2, my patience has a limit) and I still think they make good games (new Kirby, new Pokemon, etc etc). I just wish they worked better with their already appraised franchises (Mario, Zelda, F-Zero, Star Fox, etc. Pikmin 3 is actually a huge step from the Wii) and just, y'know, tried new things. That's all.
