Captain Toad isn't really a new IP, it's a spinoff of the Mario IP.

You raise a good point in paragraph two; what about new IPs that are developed by third parties but published by Nintendo? You missed The Last Story btw,m shame on you. :P

Hahah, I never said it was an exhaustive list.

I maintain that Captain Toad counts, though, even if he started as a spin-off. The same is true for the likes of Yoshi; their games now have their own identity, style and gameplay.

Toad is literally a sidestory to 3D World though, using most of the same assets and ending with 3DW's opening cutscene. It's basically an expansion/DLC of an existing game.
