This is true, but in another way, i think if 1 game is TOO popular and sales never actually died down, then they may never see the need to make another, opting to create a new game all together. I doubt that would ever happen in the case of the DS, I have no doubt the machine will run for another 5 years before it is replaced, but depending on just how well a Wii title does and how long the Wii will be in existence, it may not be so straght forward in its case.
Overall i think we will see 2 true mario games on the current machines, the only reason we didnt see the same for the cube and N64 was that they both did pretty badly,but im sure they both had a follow up game planned at some point, only for it to be cancelled. Quite why the GBA never got its own mario game is a bit of a mystery, I guess it lived off pokemon.
