I think Mariokart is one of those things were it moves systems, but over a longer slower process. Once Mariokart launches on a console, the consoles rise (not insanely, but rise), but then never go back down. I think with Splatoon, since it's newer and, therefore, has less of a following, will have a lot of early buyers but will not have the legs that a game like Mariokart will have.
