I think we are confusing best selling to best version. Nintendo was regarded as the best developers of games, it's debatable these days no matter how many fans sees it. That doesn't mean they are making bad games, far from it, they just don't make the best games anymore.
I'm sorry popular has never meant quality to me no matter the genre. Nintendo has been very smart early most of this Generation, they made games that draw in a new market, they have a couple games that have sold insane numbers and continue to sell, as far as being the best games, they were not.
And I am not picking on Nintendo with this whole innovation thing, Sony is having their own issue too because they think everything they make has to so powerful. Which is why I think MS is the most balance right now.

No I'm not confusing anything at all, best 3D Mario, best Smash, best Kart, best Donkey Kong, best New Super Mario Bros, best Animal Crossing, etc out of those Animal Crossing is the only one to not live up to sales of the game that came before it as well.... sooooo no I've never meant best selling, I meant the best versions, they're just going hand in hand for the most part.

I will give you best 3D Mario as they are truly great games. I havent played DK or Animal crossing this gen. Everything else is debateble to me.

And there you have it, it's debatable to you not to many others, hell I've been playing most of these Nintendo series since I was barely old enough to hold an NES controller and well flat out Nintendo was off their game during the Gamecube era, they made some of the worst choices they ever have. The Wii/DS they've been knocking it out of the park time and time again, New Super Mario Bros Wii is the best 2D Mario since the SNES days and for me since Super Mario Bros 3, Mario Kart for DS stomps the crap out of the entire series and Mario Kart Wii is right behind it, I'm certain Rol here would probably say the Wii version is better than the DS version.
Melee was a step in the wrong direction for Smash even then between it and Double Dash that was all that kept Gamecube going, but they came out with Brawl taking out the glitches tournament players abused the hell out of, added in online, and then gave people what they wanted and more with content out the wazoo. Donkey Kong Country Returns is the only good Donkey Kong game to come out since the SNES and even then it's better than those SNES titles.
Honestly to believe Nintendo has not been on top of their game this gen is basically believing the hype of the snooty internet reviewer, website, or "hardcore" forum poster. It's utter rubbish and they didn't get to the top of the pile with hope and luck alone or brought back in many of their old fans while making games for the new crowds... I'm not saying they didn't "slip up" at any time, far from that, but that's like saying the SNES/N64 (the two consoles the "hardcore swear by) had hit after hit every month IE it didn't, people just like to look into the past with rose tinted glasses.
