I think you raise quite an interesting point by bringing up FPS'. Namely, that we have seen the genre begin to be saturated and while the big guns (CoD/Battlefield/Halo) keep chugging along, you get stuff on the outside like Medal of Honor/007 Legends/Homefront/Rage/Resistance etc. etc. which can't keep up. Some of those were quality issues; but some of those were absolutely fine games which just didn't sell.
Undoubtedly, the market is bigger for FPS' than platformers but maybe DK is now being pushed more to the outside while people prioritize ever-present Mario and - apparently - Kirby. Though, the strong sales of the 3DS remake would suggest otherwise.
So that leads me to the conclusion that it's just first week jitters alongside toxic console.
