my list is a little variable since my satisfaction relies on one concept. Your system has to release an average of 4 "keepers" a year. Games that 10 years from now i'll still wanna pop in the system and play. If we go ahead and assume Nintendo keeps it's usual 5ish year lifecycle then I simply need 20 keepers. I have 2 so far in Mario 3dworld and pikmin 3. i'm thinking mariokart and smash will definitely be on that list. BUT, in the spirit of keeping things interesting i'll dabble into the unknown and make a list of games that I suspect, or hope, will be made. Along with the 2 games I know i'll keep forever.
1. super Mario 3d world
2. pikmin 3
3. smash bros
4. Mario kart
5. Metroid: fps or tps as long as it has more storytelling than prime.
6. New Zelda
7. A good horror game. Silent hill, eternal darkness, whatever.
8. tps starfox
9-20. 2nd or 3rd party gems (Wii examples: the last story, nba jam, little kings story, no more heroes, madworld)
I'm hoping bayonetta, rayman origins, watchdogs and w101 make this list, but as of now I don't know yet.
