They basically turned the GameCube into the Mario spin-off machine after 2004. Mario dance dance revolution! Mario soccer! Mario baseball! Mario Party! 

lol. 

All those games were farmed out projects too, basically the main EAD teams, Retro, NST, etc. stopped making GameCube only games after 2004. 

Yep, spinoffs+outsourced titles+lower tier IP is what 2005 got so 2016 could see the same for Wii U.

SMT×FE, co-developed by Intelligent Games & Atlus (February)

Diddy Kong Racing, developed by Monster Games & Retro Studios (April)

Pokken Fighter, developed by Namco-Bandai Games (June)

Super Mario Strikers, developed by Next Level Games (August)

Fatal Frame V localization, developed by Tecmo-Koei (October)

Legend of Zelda, cross-gen with NX (November)

Probably safe to throw in something like Mario Tennis U or Mario Sports U or something along those lines too. 

Pretty standard 4th year for a Nintendo console honestly.
