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.
