3DS is cannibalizing Wii U

So then how does the Wiimote on the WiiU not make the WiiU massively unlike the 3DS? There is no Wii Sports, Wind Waker, Wii Fit, Wii Party, or NintendoLand on the 3DS.

Mario Galaxy is a 3D Mario Platformer, and often regarded as the spiritual successor to Super Mario 64. So it and DS are similar enough.

Because the Wiimote was the primary focus of the Wii, but just a secondary peripheral for Wii U.

A port of a N64 game is not a substitute for a brand new 7th gen Mario far beyond the capabilities of the DS.

And Super Mario 3D World isn't a brand new 8th gen Mario far beyond the capabilities of the 3DS?

Wiimote is not a secondary peripheral to the WiiU, it's as much a fundamental part of gameplay as before. That's like saying the 2nd screen on the 3DS is a secondary feature to 3D. :-/
