There is no double standard because we are not comparing the same thing.
There is big difference between people buying a system for a game and people buying a game for a system they already own. It's the difference between spending 50 dollars and 400 (+) dollars. There are simply not that many people at the moment who can enjoy Mario 3D World for 50 dollars.
Furthermore Mario 3D world copped plenty of flack in weeks past for its 'poor' sales but seeing as it's now pushing a 25%+ attach rate and still going strong most people have realised that such criticism was a touch premature.
