They're a toy company. That's how they think of themselves. The fun comes first. That's why they also try new gimmicks in games and then most of the time never do it again. In their minds they already made that toy.

No reason to make Mario galaxy 3. They already did that toy twice.

I think Galaxy 2 was unfinished levels from the first one, wasn't it? Something like that.

Or Breath of the Wild, they were still having fun with it, and decided to multiple it by 3 for Tears of the kingdom

I can definitely respect a company making games cause they’re having fun with making them and not making them out of desire to please investors.
