I think the problem is not that we are getting games in IP's that we get frequently, but that these new iterations are playing it much safer than usual.
SM3DW looks like a carbon copy of 3D land, I'm not used to such an uninspired entry in the mario series.
DKTF looks like it could be a level pack for returns.
Mario Kart 8 looks great, but we did just get a mario kart not too long ago.
If the new 3D mario was something new and unique, and if DKTF looked like it was made on Wii U, then no one would be complaining.
