1.  What in the name of god are you talking about.

2.  Your leaps of logic would do you good in politics but Mario selling billions really doesn't equate to Nintendo being the most diverse.

3. Killer Instinct, Sunset Overdrive, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood, Ori and the Blind Forest, and from the cut off Japanese-centric segment, ReCore and Scalebound.

1. Here's Phil Spencer's quote:

"On the Wii U, I think people downplay how many units they've sold," Spencer told Eurogamer. "I've got a Wii U, I think there's some great games on there. I think Splatoon's a really nice game and I don't think there's a first-party out there that has the strength of IP that Nintendo has. They're always a beacon to me when I look at what it means to build a first-party portfolio of products, they've done a great job."

That's what this topic is about.

2. Here's the list of the bestselling games of all time: http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/

There's a lot more from Nintendo than just Mario.

3. That's a very weak list of games, with Killer Instinct probably being the most valuable out of the bunch. Not exactly a strong resume when it comes to building a first party lineup that draws in customers.

1.  Phil's quote has something to do with using Playstation instead of Sony?  Really?  I don't even ...

2.  You're right, of the top 12, only 5 are Mario.  You got me there.  And 4 of the top 15 are Wii Sports/Wii Fit.  Oops, wait, 2 of those Mario titles are handheld, my mistake.

3.  Compared to the 360?  If you say so.  However, you seem to think that a game is only valuable if it's selling millions.  I do not.  I believe the very act of having a diverse line-up will help sell consoles, even if each individual game is what you would call "weak".
