No. If the game is good and fun for those who like a certain type of game, why would I want it to flop? It seems Nintendo did put some effort into the game and for that reason, I'd want it to succeed. I'm sure it will be a success regardless of how much some people want it to fail.
I think the reason that some people want this game to do poorly and seem to absolutely hate this game is because in their mind, they feel this proves Nintendo doesn't care about the hardcore gamer and cares more for the casual. I think that to those who feels this way use this game as that prime example of it and thus hate this game and wish nothing but bad for it. As if the game does poorly, Nintendo will stop making casual games and start making just hardcore games. Well, that won't happen, the game will sell and Nintendo will still make more casual games. The good news though is that Nintendo will still make excellent games geared towards the "hardcore".
I'll come up with something better eventually...
