    The different direction;

    No more original IP, and 99% of profits come from litigating against end users.

    (It’s the same direction as before, just not including AI yet)

      List of a few of Nintendo’s new IPs from the last 15 or so years:

      • Arms
      • Good Job!
      • 1-2 Switch
      • Dillon
      • Splatoon
      • Snipperclips
      • Pushmo
      • Steel Diver
      • Fluidity
      • Nintendoland

      Just because you aren’t buying/playing them doesn’t mean they aren’t making them. Let’s also not ignore the amount of time to develop a game has increased significantly or how gamers overwhelmingly choose to buy games from well-known IP. They are a company and need to pay their employees. I’m not a fan of Nintendo’s litigation practices, but I’m also not a fan of how whiny and bitchy gamers have become. If they aren’t whining and or bitching, they are harassing developers and actors.
