New Super Mario Bros. U is selling because it's bundled, simple as that. I mean, just look at Super Mario 3D World, it has tanked. It definitely has surpassed the 2M mark, but it's going to struggle to reach those 3M. Now, SM3DW has sold 1.96M units, Pikmin has sold 750K, the difference it's only about 1.25 units. Keep in mind, this is Mario vs Pikmin. The game it's actually selling quite good considering the Wii U's situation.

my point is a 2d mario game (even sm3dw) can be made within months of development and Nintendo can wait more sells out of it. Plus, is a good way to fill droughts on the system.  I can be wrong tho

Yeah, from 15 to 24 months.

The New Super Mario Bros. Wii team worked on it since 2009. NSMB2 was made by another team.

People underestimate their level design standards... Maybe only speedrunners can appreciate it properly and realize that it's unmatched.
