There's also a more obvious answer here. Nintendo's sequel's of their core franchises always sell about half as much as the first title. Even when the quality is unquestionably much better:

DKC sold 9.3 million, but the unquestionably superior DKC2 sold only 5.2 million
Mario Galaxy sold 10 million, but the unquestionably superior Mario Galaxy 2 sold only 6.7 million

This sort of trend goes on regardless.
Ocarina of Time sold 7.6 million, Majora's Mask sold 3.8 million.

This is just how things go.


this, but then the next question would be...why?? some other company games sequels do much better than the original
