It's true. I'll show you all the ones I can think of.

Pikmin

Average sales per game (Not counting new play control) - 1.18 million

Break until Pikmin 3 - 9 years

F-Zero

Average sales per game - 1.16 million

Dead since 2003

Starfox

Average sales per game (Not counting Star Fox 64 3D) - 2.1 million

Dead since 2006

I wonder if this will continue with the Wii Party series.

OMG Star Fox on Wii U in 2015
After all Pikmin took 9 years, why not Star Fox right?

Fire Emblem, Kirby, Metroid, and Yoshi off the top of my head have all had at least a couple of games within the last six years, and only one of those titles has sold over 2 million units (I believe)

I think Wii Party is secure as long as the Wii brand still exists...

The fact that Wii Party U is being bundled in Japan (and is now one of the better selling Wii U titles because of this) demonstrates (some) confidence in the brand...

Have a nice day...

Metroid took a long break in the past, though.
