actually I believe mario maker will be a bigger hardware pusher than mario kart 8 imo

Just no. That would be something very, very surprising. The next game is always supposed to push a lot more than the last one. (See MK8's disappointing boost and Nintendo fans looking towards Smash for a "much bigger" boost).

Would you expect Pikmin to be a bigger HW pusher than lets say Super Mario? It did though with wiiu (japan).

That said i doubt it for Mario Maker, though it could be a small surprise.

The only reason for that was that WiiU was newer then and less Nintendo fans had already bought the system. Super Mario provided a bigger boost though (sustained), especially worldwide
