I said nothing of the sort. Read and comprehend before you make comments.

 

"Kart and Smash were both on Wii.  They don't do it.  They are derivative, which Wii U could not afford to be." 

You said Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros. (both released in 2014) would come on Wii instead of Wii U.
This made me thought that Wii U would release in 2015. 

I say Kart was on Wii and you somehow interpret that to mean "Mario Kart 8 would be moved to Wii and the Wii U would be delayed to 2015"?  That's bizzare.  It just shows you have some preconceived notions coming into this thread.

My statement was exactly what was said.  Kart (MK Wii) and Smash (Brawl) were both on Wii.  As such, the Wii U games are not new experiences and would not have been good Wii U launch games.  Neither one demonstrates the value of Wii U.  Splatoon and and SMM, however, offer experiences that are completely fresh and show a customer why a Wii U is interesting.  They also do it without forcing the Gamepad to be used in an unnatural way.
