Splatoon's a great game that should definitely be up for game of the year imo. It's metacritic score should also be adjusted to about 90, given all the updates.
But Mario Maker and Xenoblade are coming out. Those will win through novelty.

It has to be said, for all of the doom and gloom about the Wii U, it'll end up having a pretty good year on the whole. So much variety in their big releases. Splatoon, Mario Maker, Star Fox, Xenoblade. They're all as far away from each other in terms of genre as you could possibly imagine.
