Mario Galaxy 2 and Uncharted 2 were contemporaries and I'd say they look about as good as each other, albeit in different ways.
Where I think Nintendo gets it right, is fun and variety. Wind Waker is an ocean faring take on the formula with a cell shaded look. Twilight Princess is more by the numbers, but it is steeped in mid-2000s edgelord aesthetic and loaded with sassy characters. Skyward Sword (for better or worse) completely change the combat and it looks like a watercolor painting. Breath of the Wild, again adopts a new art style, and blends game play elements from the original LoZ game with modern open world games.
Each successive Uncharted game is just like the last game but with a different story and higher production values. Competent third person shooting. Climbing sections. Set pieces. Each game ups the spectacle. And it is truly awesome. But after playing Uncharted 4, I feel a bit like the previous games are redundant. U4 has more stunning visuals, bigger spectacles, and more well developed characters.
The only thing I can think of from Nintendo that compares, is Mario Kart. Each new Mario Kart game is usually just a better version of the last game. But then again, they only do one per console.
