One other thing is that GC changed up all of there franchises, Mario Sunshine seemed like a spin off, Zelda was too cartoony for most people, Donkey Kong only had music/rhythm games, Star Fox was no longer a shooter, and Kirby was a racing game. Smash Bros and Mario Kart were pretty much the only big franchises to stay the same and Metroid was the only one that beneffited from changing.
So far from Wii U we have a traditional Donkey Kong, a multiplayer accessible 3D Mario, Smash Bros and Mario Kart again use the same formula qnd im sure Zelda/Metroid/Kirby/Star Fox will be traditional installments once they release.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
