That's kind of Nintendo's M.O. though; they come up with a gameplay idea and try to make a game with it using one of their established franchises to give it a better chance of succeeding. The only times I don't see them do this is either when they're unable to just plug-and-play an established IP into a gameplay idea or if they have enough confidence in a gameplay idea to succeed on its own.
