This is one of the things he says in his "a fire broke out among Nintendo´s core" article, which can be seen here:

Here´s the exact line:
"The purpose of Super Mario Galaxy was, as stated by Miyamoto, to make 3d Mario sell as 2d Mario by making 3d Mario simpler and easier to do. This is why Mario Galaxy goes into 2d mode so often. In this mission, Super Mario Galaxy failed. It did not sell the same numbers as 2d Mario. Worse, it performed poorly in Japan. I blame the Wii’s problems in Japan entirely on Super Mario Galaxy, a game that no one over there was looking forward to playing."
Do you agree with him?
