Just my thought.

A new version or #6 will not change this. Cross-gen for the sake of making money takes away exclusivity.

Nintendo took his chance by betting on mobile.

A lot of remakes and no risk for new ideas. The market is feed up and also mobile smartphone casual gaming takes its toll.

They would better save the money for a new hardware and try to bring some fresh ideas.

Just my 5c

Inflation is really hitting everywhere. First it was a penny for your thoughts, then it was putting in your 2 cents, now it's 5c for a comment.

Its just with tax, I don't want to get in trouble with the IRS

¯_(ツ)_/¯

A lot of remakes and no risk for new ideas.

I think you've really nailed it with this. Some of the best games over the last few years have been remakes and sequels. I can't remember the last new IP that was a big deal. Elden Ring? But that's as close to "sequel" as you can get without strictly being called a sequel.

All the new IPs that have come out haven't been all that good.

There are just SO MANY remakes and sequels.
