Nice chart. Would be even better if it took development time into account. I guess dev time for the 2D games is way shorter than for the 3D ones (like 1 year vs 3 years) which sheds some light on one of Nintendo's biggest problems: Resource allocations. They put lots of resources into games that sell less (3D Mario) and little resources into the games that sell more (2D Mario).

Is 2D really more popular than 3D, or is NSMBU "selling" more because it's a packin?

For me the preference for SM3DW over NSMBU is night and day.

I think both! After all, the 2D Mario games are much easier to pick up and play if you ask me!
