I want to express my doubts over the fact that you did your research concerning upcomming Wii U games before making the statement, "Wii U has just more Mario games". If you did do your reasearch, I am curious how did you draw this conclusion from the information we have available to us. If you did not do your reasearch, I would suggest you not make baseless statements.

Baseless?
Well the only games I know of coming to Wii U this year are Mario Kart 8, Super Smash (Mario) Bros Wii U, and Bayonetta 2.
2 for 3 Mario games for the Wii U makes you the more baseless one commenting imho.

Smash Bros is not a Mario game, by that logic I can say its a Metroid game since Samus is in it.

Do Mario Bros characters dominate more than any other characters available in every Smash Bros games? Yes.
Because I think of it as a Mario fighting game that ran out of Mario characters. So then Nintendo did the logical thing and, made a fighting universe game with other Nintendo characters so people wouldn't complain about such a small roster of Mario characters. It's also not called Nintendo Smash Bros for a reason. Reason being "Mario" in the title sells games to average consumers who own the Nintendo platform.
Therefore it's centered around (1st)Mario characters in the (2nd)Nintendo platform universe.
2 much logic for you?

Your claim that Smash Bros is a Mario game is based on your own speculation and incorrect information.
"I think of it as a Mario fighting game that ran out of Mario characters. So then Nintendo did the logical thing and made a fighting universe game with other Nintendo characters so people wouldn't complain about such a small roster of Mario characters."
Incorrect. The original SSB had 3 Mario characters, 2 Pokemon characters, and 7 characters from other Nintendo series. DK, Star Fox, F-Zero, Kirby, Zelda, Earthbound and Metroid are all represented in the roster of 12. There are more than 12 Mario characters Nintendo could have chosen from for the original SSB without dipping into any of their other franchises. The original SSB roster is proof that using characters from multiple franchises was a part of its concept.
"It's also not called Nintendo Smash Bros for a reason. Reason being "Mario" in the title sells games to average consumers who own the Nintendo platform."
Incorrect. "Mario" does not appear anywhere in any of the titles of the Smash Brothers series. The word "Brothers", however, does, which is a great subliminal way to entice people to buy a product which features as part of its line-up, one of the most successful videogame characters of all time.
"Do Mario Bros characters dominate more than any other characters available in every Smash Bros games? Yes."
You are correct to an extent, in as much as there are more characters representing the Mario series than any other series. In a roster of 39, Brawl had 5 from Mario, 4 from Zelda, 4 from Pokemon, 3 from Star fox, and representatives from a further 9 different series, (including DK, Wario, Metroid, Kid Icarus, Earthbound, Fire Emblem, Pikmin, Ice Climbers, Robot, and two 3rd party series).
However, your claim that Mario characters dominate in every Smash Bros game, (when Mario beats Pokemon by just 1 in two of those iterations) is incorrect.
"Therefore it's centered around (1st)Mario characters in the (2nd)Nintendo platform universe. 2 much logic for you?"
Unfortunately, logic is sadly lacking, here.
Smash Bros is not a part of a Mario series. As I have shown, it is a distinct crossover series in its own right, which pits characters from different Nintendo series against one another.
"Baseless? Well the only games I know of coming to Wii U this year are Mario Kart 8, Super Smash (Mario) Bros Wii U, and Bayonetta 2. 2 for 3 Mario games for the Wii U makes you the more baseless one commenting imho."
Everything you have said in this quote has been invalidated by the admission that you don't know what games are coming to the Wii U. Google 'upcoming Wii U games' to enlighten yourself.
