Nah. Kirby's Return to Dreamland (Wii), Kirby Triple Deluxe (3DS) and Kirby & The Rainbow Curse (Wii U) all came after that, with 2 out of the 3 selling more in Japan and the other doing about equal to NA. 
But yeah, it's pretty big there. Metroid? Not so much (though they did quite like the original games).
