I'm just speaking on how varied their portfolio is.
Mario = Platformer both 3d and 2d
Zelda = action adventure
Metroid = platformer
Kirby = platformer
Smash = Platform fighter
M Kart = arcade racer
Animal Crossing = Life Sim cozy corner
Splatoon = 3Person team shooter
Pokemon = Monster tamer jrpg
Xenoblade = Epic jrpg
Fire Emblem = Strategy rpg
Advance Wars = Strategy game
Luigi Mansion = Action adventure on smaller scale
Mario whatever = sports titles
Arms = Zany fighter
And I know I'm missing some titles but man, it's too much to recall.
Like, you might not like everything they make but damn they've got some spread.
Looking at this list, makes me miss Sega as a hardware maker, because they carried their own boat as well.
My only concern is that the workforce needed for those titles plus whatever new ips they're working on will mean droughts ahead.
But really, has there ever been a portfolio as well rounded as Nintendo's? I do acknowledge they're sorely lacking western fp titles like shooters and rpgs.
