Not only are they not the only ones capable of making masterpieces, but the guy who spearheaded one of the games you listed died in the 90s and his team got dissolved in the early 2000s, the other was spearheaded by a guy who has semi-retired to focus on theme parks and movies. Old Nintendo ain't coming back.
Lol I forgot miyamotos basically tired of video games at this point and wants to focus on theme parks and making movies.
Xenoblade 2 was a downgrade in pretty much every way from the prior two games, it was only so popular because it was the first big JRPG on the Switch and its anime aesthetic attracted the Persona 5 fanbase to it. I can't wait to see what happens if they ever go back to their old style from XCX (which is the same as the Xenosaga style), since the XC2 fanbase was already complaining with XC3's toned down sexuality. But this is going off topic.
I've been replaying OOT on my new Steam Deck using that PC port by the Discord larpers, honestly its not as good as you probably remember it being and I'm guilty of thinking it was better too. There are probably many more ways to 'modernize' the Zelda formula other than making it into an open world, but I don't think they are going to now that Botw and now Totk have sold so well.
Whoa whoa whoa let's not say things we can't take back.
I replayed it a few months ago on my N64 and again a few weeks ago on the virtual console thing and it was great.
Play A Link to the Past if you haven't for a while. I guarantee it's better than you remember.
Was on my list next, there is a cool disassembly and port to C available: https://github.com/snesrev/zelda3
Get an Emulator, do the Randomizer Rom Hack, LTTP is the second Best Zelda...LTTP with all the Chests randomized (keys too niggers) is the greatest Zelda possible.
Well yes there are pirates but no they aren't the pirates you were imagining.
Well I thought I was going to see pirates but I've gone and ended up in something called the Lightning Temple.
