Most sales happen on the first couple of days.

And while Zelda isn't new, look at the list. See a lot of Switch games in there? All those people who bought the Switch in April before MK8 came out, they must have bought a game, right? So they bought Zelda. I think it's a brilliant strategy by Nintendo.

Bolded is laughably untrue when it comes to Mario Kart.

Regarding underlined, I agree. Releasing games people want to play is a great strategy. Something Nintendo learned from the 3DS and Wii U which launched with games people did not want to play.

Nintendo's strategy isn't to release a game people want to play. It's to release a big game (quality is irrelevant) every 2 months.
