Hmmm, well, you specified "Last Gen" predecessor, so I guess you're referring to Wii installments instead of 3DS installments? Pikmin technically didn't have a last-gen installment (I don't count those Wii remakes), but in any case, I think all of the WiiU versions of 1st party games are much better than their predecessor except perhaps if you count the Galaxies as predecessors to 3D World (MK Wii is also really good).
Basically: MK8 is far better than 7, 3D World is loads better than 3D Land, NSMBU buries all of the other "new" Marios, Tropical Freeze positively dwarfs DKCR, and Pikmin 3 is easily the best in the series for me.
