| sethnintendo said: You might as well just put Kart and Smash. Those are their two biggest hitters. Your list would have been good for 2013. |
Kart and Smash were both on Wii. They don't do it. They are derivative, which Wii U could not afford to be.
Splatoon is a shooter, a game where many like a dual analogue system, which Wii U has and Wii didn't.
SMM is the game that uses the second screen in a fun way. This can only be done on Wii U. It makes it stand out from other systems. It's also a life long dream for many gamers, the ability to make Mario levels.
Both of these games - and XCX - have the ability to appeal beyond Nintendo fans, especially the "lapsed" Nintendo fans that like the games but spend most of their gaming time elsewhere presently.
