I already wrote about my thoughts. I think it's already a success to fans of Nintendo as it already has amazing games that you won't find elsewhere. Only the stupid would consider sales numbers as somehow relevant to them beyond the scope of the enjoyment of a sequel.

As for what Nintendo would consider a success, that's a different story. Actually seeing a return on their Wii U investment is the priority at the moment. People like to think they're doing damage control, but I'm fairly certain Nintendo is about to reveal the game plan they've had from the very beginning for the Wii U. The amiibo was their go to for this generation from the very beginning, hence why it was built into the hardware. People should probably look at the debut of the amiibo as the true release of the Wii U.
