My prediction of Xenoblade Chronicles X was true.

Xenoblade is NOT a Mario, Donkey Kong or Pikmin IP. It's much more niche and a much, much harder sell. I don't think the "Nintendo legs" argument will hold true in this instance. 

Is Pikmin comparable to Mario and Donkey though? I had never heard about Pikmin before I got a wiiu but xenoblade I had heard a lot about since the wii days.

For those of us who are big Nintendo fans, Pikmin is well known. I was playing the original back on the Gamecube and Nintendo even used them to launch the opening of one of their E3s awhile back.
