Who is saying 3D Mario are statistically launch titles more often than not? That is absolutely false, it has only happened ONCE with the N64. Every other has been 7-12 months following launch.
64 - 64 at launch
GCN - Sunshine 9 months post launch
Wii - Galaxy 1 year post launch
3DS - 3D Land 9 months post launch
Wii U - 3D World 1 year post launch
Switch - Odyssey 7 months post launch
The reason for this is because Nintendo considers it paramount that the first headliner 3D Mario on a system be polished to perfection. The only reason we got 64 at launch is because they literally delayed the console for it to be polished enough since they knew how important it was to show off the jump into 3D gaming at launch.
