Splatoon is an amazing franchise. Advanced Wars also has real potential. I'd buy a sequel to Arms.

There's a great video out there on the history of Mario Kart, where they detail how they set out to make a two player version of F-zero and wound up with Kart after balancing the technology capabilities and existing character IP.

I was aware Advance Wars is a remake of a Gameboy Advance title but didn't realise the series goes back to 1988:
