Oh, that's a tough question, considering the numbers of these 2 games are neck and neck. Seeing how Mario is returning to the 3D style type of game from Mario 64, perhaps it will edge out in the end. Mario is also a well established IP that has stood the test of time. Splatoon is still rather fresh and it's uncertain whether Spla2n will be another success.
Dance my pretties!
