So, Splatoon moved more consoles than DK Tropical Freeze

That's intellectually dishonest. I mean, I get that you say that Splatoon is a bigger success than DKC:TF, but your criterion to put XCX over DKC:TF is pathetic. Additionally, it's not like Retro had a stellar track record of moving hardware with their games before they made DKC:TF.

The lesson to be learned is that Nintendo shouldn't make a piece of trash like the Wii U, because ultimately pretty much all of their games suffered because of it. Based on Retro's whole body of work, there's no good reason to believe that a different project would have led to a significantly different outcome (selling below expectations, failing to move hardware on a notable scale).

XCX is a more impressive game than DK, that's for sure.
