GC is the only comparable one, really, since Wii had sold almost 4m units in Japan when Galaxy launched, lessening the impact of a single game. |
The Wii was also still supply constrained in 2007. By 2010 it had pretty much run its course, and was like the PS3 today where even moderately big games will barely register as a blip on hardware sales.
Just imagine if a year ago someone has said Pikmin will give the Wii U a bigger boost than Mario. You'd have people calling them a troll and a hater every which way. Hell, even if they had said it a week ago it would have happened.
