I honestly see very little hype for this game from Nintendo themselves. Nintendo just doesn't hype their games anymore.
No doubt it will move HW and SW, but not as much HW as people believe, since the game isn't even remotely being hyped and secondly there are already at aleast 17+ million people (Being it the worst case if you don't take into account that besides MKWii there's plenty of other Mario games) who have bought a Mario game on their Wii. Unless there's a sudden appearance of Mario fans, I doubt the impact will be as huge as many are saying.
