F-Zero! Oh wait....

I'd say either MK8 or XCX.



 

I'd say Pikmin.

The fruit in 3 looks so reeeaaaal...



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first. 

Xeno -> Xeno X.
Fatal Frame IV -> Fatal Frame V.



Mario Kart without question. Before MK8, I never even CONSIDERED looking at Mario Kart for visuals. Now it's arguably the best looking game on the Wii U that isn't Wind Waker HD.

As great as Zelda U looks, Skyward Sword looks good too, especially for the Eii. So as far as transitional leaps, even though Zelda U will look better than Mario Kart 8 (and not my a lot), the leap isn't nearly as wide. Mario Kart Wii was a pretty mediocre looking Wii game.

As much as I dislike the game and the franchise overall, Mario Kart. It's simply gorgeous to look at.

How dare you not like a game that I like?



I honestly think Mario Kart 8 is the prettiest game I have ever played. I normally don't care too much about graphics, but that game is gorgeous.

Pikmin seems like the biggest improvement there, but it also skipped the Wii gen (technically).

Mario Kart is nothing to sneeze at though.

I'd go with Mario Kart.



Mario Kart BLEW ME AWAY this gen.
