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.

My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.
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)_/¯
