The way I kinda see it is like this ...
Super Mario 3D World is like a superstar basketball player who plays for a crappy team (the Wii U, lol). Even though he individually puts up a heroic MVP type performance, he doesn't have much help around him and the team struggles to score without him and predictably gets their butts whupped.
Gran Turismo 6 is an aging basketball player on a perennially good team (the PS3), but because he's getting older, he can't perform like he used to. The rest of the team around him is also a bit on the old side. You're a little bit surprised at how much he's declined, but on the other hand it's kind of expected.
