The issue with Titanfall, for one thing, is that, big surprise, in case you hadn't noticed, with Xbox fans FPS games are their bread and butter. Hence the reason that, for the most part, FPS games are the highest selling Xbox/360 games of all time. So it's kind of a no-brainer that Titanfall is doing well on Xbox, just as Destiny will, because A) it's FPS, and B) it's made by the makers of Halo. It also doesn't hurt that gamers knew that TF was being developed by former Call of Duty guys. And it had tons of hype. And it's the first BIG exclusive for the system. So naturally, all of that combined together is bound to = sales.
Also, it's worth pointing out that:
Pikmin, Chibi Robo, Eternal Darkness, Elite Beat Agents, Nintendogs, Brain Training, Wii Sports (Wii ____ series), Xenoblade, technically The Last Story (they helped finance it, and published it in Japan), Animal Crossing (started as an N64 game in Japan but got introduced to the rest of the world on GC), similar story with Sin & Punishment (which we didn't get on N64, but received a Wii sequel), Electroplankton, Steel Diver, Disaster: Day of Crisis (retardedly not brought to NA), Endless Ocean, (technically) the Professor Layton games, Drill Dozer, Harmo-Knight, Rhythm Heaven, Fluidity, Fling-Smash, Dillon's Rolling Western, Pandora's Tower (similar situation to The Last Story), Nintendo Land, The Wonderful 101, and the upcoming "X".
Just to name a few of the IPs NIntendo has rolled along since the N64 days. They haven't exactly been sitting on their hands in that department. It's just that, as I said, sequels sell.

The problem with that is, if games not specifically developed by Nintendo in-house somehow don't count, then neither do all of the Sony and MS published games that THEY did not themselves develop in-house. Pull that card, and suddenly Sony and MS don't have a hell of a lot of IPs on their systems, do they? Of course Nintendo makes far more in-house software than Sony or MS ever do, because they are and have been a games company for decades. Sony and MS are not games companies.
But regardless, if we're going to include Sony or MS published games like Uncharted, Jak & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank, God of War, Gears of War, Halo, Resistance, Infamous, Sly Cooper, Project Gotham Racing, Kinect Sports, "Killer Instinct", etc. etc. etc. etc., then it's only fair to also include Nintendo funded/published games as well, which is why I listed them above. They still count as "NIntendo franchises/IPs".
