Has Nintendo even released a game since that second Zelda game, or are they too busy suing people?
Assuming you mean Tears of the Kingdom (May 12 2023) and not Echoes of Wisdom just a few months ago? Sorting by release date on the eShop for first-party titles published by Nintendo since then:
A "not really" would have sufficed.
That is 22 first party releases. The answer to your question was "yes", not "not really".
Yikes... so that list had 21 titles on it, not 22; and there's a good chunk of them that are remakes. The ones that aren't sound bad - not fun. "Not really" is accurate. 22 is not accurate at all.
I'm counting both Pikmin ports, that's 22.
You asked "has Nintendo even released a game?" and the answer to that question is "yes". They released 22 of them. I don't care where you wanna move the goalposts to, you can't say 22 games is "not really".
I guess I should have put the /s at the end of my post so that everyone wouldn't be so offended. Fuck Nintendo and their lawsuits though, no sarcasm intended there.
I don't think people are upset at you calling out Nintendo for their rampant lawsuits, but instead at your dismissive reply when someone provided a list of games to answer your question.
Judging by the 15 downvotes on my "Has Nintendo even released a game since that second Zelda game, or are they too busy suing people?" comment, I'm not so sure. I do find this a bit amusing though.
Back to that list though, there's nothing on it that's remotely appealing to me, so I guess I'm a bit biased and dismissive.
I also do not consider ports, and remakes new releases, even if there's a new price tag on them.
Precisely. Just because YOU don't like them doesn't mean they don't exist. As far as non-remakes from that list go, I only liked Pikmin 4, Mario Wonder, and Echoes of Wisdom.
They have released a ton of games since then. Even another Zelda.
