I very much doubt the "soccer moms and senior citizens" were playing a core 3D platformer.

100 million userbase helped all the Mario games. 

Mario 3D World would've sold 10 million easy on the Wii, probably more actually due to its multiplayer gameplay. 

The large userbase definitely helped, but I reckon the Wii Fit/Sports casuls comprised a smaller percentage of that 100 million than people think; the kind of people who only got into the Wii as a weight loss machine or because Wii bowling didn't require complex controls would not be playing a more sophisticated game like Mario Galaxy.
