Do u have any examples other than Mario Kart 7 that shows Nintendo games growing?

Mario Kart 7 > Mario Kart GBA

Mario 3D Land > Super Mario GBA

Zelda OOT3D > Zelda GBA

Fire Emblem Awakening > FE GBA

All with about half the userbase too. This isn't even lifetime sales as they are still selling.

Plus, Animal Crossing is certainly bigger than before. As long as Nintendo doesn't just remake New Leaf like they did with City Folk, it should be a big game. Donkey Kong also was M.I.A on the GC. (Jungle Beat wasn't even DK) Tropical Freeze will help sell systems in the longrun.

3D World might be selling pretty low at the moment but the price is holding it back IMO. Once the Wii U is cheaper, that game will be picked up along side many systems. 

The Mario games on GBA were all rereleases so thats not a fair comparison

OoT 3D did better than LTTP on GBA because OoT is by far the most popular Zelda title, not because Zelda is bigger now

Ur right about Fire Emblem but thats a very small franchise and only amounted to a 250k increase over the GBA installment, pretty negligible

There was no Animal Crossing on GBA to compare to but the Wii version didnt outsell the GC version by much despite having 5x the install base

DK Returns barely outsold DK64 despite 3x the install base
