I disagree, because I don't see either of those games offering something fundamentally different that could change their respective genres or the gaming industry in general.
Splatoon is in a weird situation in that it addresses Nintendo's inherent lack of shooters on the console yet still adheres to Nintendo's philosophies. Sadly, I think it ultimately won't move the needle. Hopefully it encourages Nintendo to embrace genres they typically don't regardless of how Splatoon does.
Sunset Overdrive is in a similar position. It could help sell Xbox Ones, but I don't see it doing so well that every other shooter is going to be a subversive but lighthearted satire with a deluge of colors.
It's hard to know what game will be a ame changer until it, well, changes the game.
