Except those games aren't big holiday titles. Xenoblade is Nintendos big title for the holiday and is being marketed a lot more than those games. And PS4 owners have a lot more games to buy than Wii U owners.


I feel this is as much "Nintendo's big holiday title" as Youkai Watch Just Dance is their big holiday title in Japan.  It's obvious Splatoon/Super Mario Maker are going to do the heavy lifting over the holidays.

And advertising doesn't change the fact that it's part of a genre that's getting nicher in the west as well as being a sequel to a game which didn't sell all that well here in the first place.  There's a limit for how high something can be pushed.
