Why do they rarely make new IPs?
>>
You will never play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe multiplayer on your PC.

They make new IPs all the time, though without cheap to make handheld games they haven't done it as much and good luck getting them to actually resume franchises they think nobody wants.
>>
>>681545787
Because they already have some of the most popular IPs in existence
>>
>>681545787
compared to what? feels like they try a new IP every gen, last time it was Splatoon, now ARMS(but it failed).
>>
>>681545787
Cause their games suck and rely on brand recognition to get sold
>>
why would they bother doing literally anything new when they can just put out the same ports every half-decade and get like 25 million $70 sales from dumb parents who don't know any better?
>>
They don't need to.
>>
>>681545787
embarrassment of riches with the ones they already have
we're lucky with what we get
most companies would coast on Mario and Zelda alone
