Yeah, I think it's very safe to make that assumption based on the amazing things that Splatoon has been able to do on Wii U. It had turned into a legit Powerhouse franchise for Nintendo, ESPECIALLY in Japan, I mean they just had a LIVE concert of Callie and Marie over there didn't they? (Love those two by the way, they give that game the attitude and personality and... Freshness that it is known for.) It is Nintendo's shooter franchise, like how Mario Kart is the racer, and Smash Bros. is the their fighter. And given its growing, phenominal success, and if Nintendo continues to build upon its momentum... it may even have a legitimate shot at topping those two as Nintendo's #1 selling multiplayer franchise. It's getting extremely close to Smash Wii U, and it's still got a loooong way to go towards Mario Kart 8, honestly I don't think it'll ever catch Mario Kart 8. But the potential right now is limitless and the future of this IP is looking extraordinarily bright! Kudos to Nintendo for the amazing job they've done with this game and this franchise.
