Nintendo makes it as hard as possible to use their computers generically.
Nintendo fanboys: "Thankyou, sir, may I have another?"
Nintendo could have raked in millions by doing it themselves, but they prefer their closed ecosystem.
Has nothing to do with their closed eco system. They basically did similar stuff with some of the stuff in the sm3d collection thingy.
Nintendo is a company that only wants make new stuff, innovations.
For example, they ( mostly miyomoto ) has been quoted to not understand that people want another f-zero, as the game's principals and ideas have been fully flushed out and no new ideas could make it feel like something new.
They also usually dont do remakes/remasters unless its so new/different it can be considered a new game ( see metroid 2 on 3ds ).
If that is a smart business position to have, i will leave for you to decide, but do get your facts a bit straight :)
EDIT: also, nintendo has used open source projects for internal projects before, so idk how "closed ecosystem" is part of their stuff :)

They've been digging mario out of the dumpster for the last 40 years wtf are you dementia-ing on about?

I think the point is they go for new games instead of remakes. Not that they don't use the same IP.

Hell even the list of Wii-U games ported to the Switch is staggering. As an early adopter of the Wii-U, implying Nintendo doesn't like rehashing old ideas is laughable.

I didn't realise so many non-Nintendo studios made games for Nintendo. I'm not a console gamer so I wouldn't know. You should have posted this the first time, but I guess now you understood their point. You're welcome :)
