What are you talking about? lol Splatoon 2 is big but it's no Animal Crossing, Smash or Pokemon. Mario Kart is a port of a Wii U game that a lot of people already played but it sells because it's mario kart. 3D Mario never outsells Smash or Pokemon. Zelda is not a hardware pusher like Smash or Pokemon, or Animal Crossing. And none of them really stand a chance against a 2D Mario game done right. 

It doesn't matter which games will sell more in this case, its which ones have the potential to bring in new customers.

Most people didn't own a wiiu, and mario kart is selling like a new entry it will do 16-18 million ltd, splatoon 2 is looking like it will reach 10 million, 3d mario is always been very close to smash in sales, and mario odyssey is taking it to a new level in terms of sales will easily reach 18 millon, zelda is on its way to 10 million all these games in released in a 7 month window, 2 of which are the highest rated games in the past 10 years, attracting the hardcore gamer crowd in a big way. 

Splatoon 2 might sell 10 millions but it doesnt mean its a system seller. Its a new franchise and yes people buy it cuz its fresh and original and mainly cause its the only game from Nintendo like this, but im sure there is not much people outside of japan that bought a switch for this game.
