that's not how it works when you compare consoles with a small userbase to those with a big userbase. otherwise a game like pikmin 3 would have sold already like 10 million units worldwide in only one month if wii u would be in the eigths years with a userbase of 80 million...

I know the equation is not that simple but a little context in the OP would be great, some significant concession must be given for the fact the WiiU has 1/20 the install base of the other two consoles, not to mention it's going up against Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101 and Rayman Legends which all released within weeks of this game.
Furthermore this game is missing features on the WiiU, is not being advertised, has virtually no reviews on Metacritic because advance copies were not made available and has/had very negative feedback regarding the buggy online play (haven't played since the patch became available).
If we are going to deal in black and white, then yes, the game should have sold more but this is a little more complicated than "third parties don't sell on Nintendo."
