it’s been like 9 years since Odyssey

That can't be right, Odyssey is a new game. I'm pretty sure it's 2, maybe 3 years old, tops.

The team that made odyssey, made donkey Kong game, so presumably they'll be working on a Mario game now. But probably at least 2 years out, 3 seems more realistic.

Donkey Kong was worked on by the Odyssey team, I thought. That makes it the next Mario, essentially. There was also Bowser's Fury which is like 1/3 of a Mario game.

Nintendo used to have pretty clearly-defined separate teams: EAD, SPD, etc. Those seemed to have been ended and moved around (and physically moved to different buildings) around 2016. Seems like they have 11 internal groups EPD1-11 now. You'd think that'd maybe mean more games, but so far it has not.

Handy summary I found.

(EPD 8 made Bonanza)

Like, what have EPD10 been doin'?or EPD3 now that there hasn't been a main Zelda entry for awhile and the last ones were pretty small in scope (and I thought Grezzo worked on Echoes Of Wisdom anyway).

sadly it was like this when i saw it, its basically the release titles for the Wii U, Switch and Switch 2.

For the Wii U it had 7 mario games, for the Switch it was 6 plus 1 zelda game and the switch 2 5 mario games (some dont see yoshi and dk as mario games tho) plus 2 non mario games

its making fun of mario fans (plus smash bros fans) in twitter who complained that nintendo was forgetting about mario

...and here I am not playing Mario since the SNES.
