I admit I'm biased, 2D Mario games are like the least interesting things in gaming to me, so part of that was me thinking about what games I would buy if I picked up a Wii U at launch. Mario wouldn't even be in that picture. Still, will people rush out to buy yet another Mario game? Didn't one just come out?
I still think a lot of people are going to wait until the library builds.

That's worse than anecdotal evidence, :P. You're basically extrapolating upon your personal preference. Now, I personally don't find any of the PS2's games interesting or worth buying the console for, but that doesn't mean that there aren't ~160m people who disagree. We have to work with what we know people like, not what we like.
Also, there's no real evidence for a Mario game having been released recently negatively affecting this new one's sales. In fact - and this is what happened all the time on Wii and DS with NSMB, Mario Kart, etc. - people who buy the 3DS version may end up wanting the WiiU game, looking for more Mario.

You should see his prediction in the final 10 weeks thread. He has the XBox360 doubling the 3DS and the PS3 beating it by a couple million.

Which seems to have personally offended you, as you keep commenting about it, a fact that amuses me greatly. Oh no, I know nothing about handheld numbers and have little interest in them. I wouldn't have included them but it seemed mandatory. I admit that freely. Deal with it, get over it, or something. It's already edging over into creepy.
Here, if it really upsets you that much, I officially appologize to the 3DS for under-estimating its future sales. Now you can take a deep breath, as you've successfully defended the honor and feelings of an electronic device.
