Nah, marketing is an excuse, of course Splatoon had a big marketing and that help it to have great sales at first (that does not justify the fact that the game has epic legs though) . But even when Nintendo does a big marketing campaign is still far from other companies campaigns, specially EA, Splatoon marketing was nothing close to any of the games you mention there, and you forget that Plants VS Zombies had a ton of marketing too, I saw adds in a lot of places, like happens with every single EA game on consoles, I haven´t seen a single Splatoon add in my country anywhere. So probably splatoon and PvZ had a very similar marketing, and even if Splatoon had a slighty bigger one, is still a new Ip on a console with Dreamcast level of sales VS a popular Ip with +200m userbase to sell the game, yet Splatoon wins here, and it does for a reason.

Excuse ... lol sorry but no. This is a truth. Splatoon had more marketing, and likewise would have better sales. The install base argument is also not as big as you are making it out to be. It would make sense that the console supported mainly by Nintendo fans would heavily support a new game by Nintendo. This argument is also pointless when you realize that sales =/= quality. Otherwise we have ridiculous claims like "mario party 10 is a way better game than bayonetta 2 cause salez!"

Whatever
