No, firstly I expected to see how a 3D Mario game is not bounded by a userbase as it can expand it. Yet, I was wrong as this title didn't do anything. Secondly, I expected to at least sell better on the current userbase, like for example, Mario Kart 8 or Super Smash Bros. Once again wrong.

So, I ask again, what's the point? I was not the one who started this discussion.

When have 3D Mario platformers ever sold like Mario Kart or SSB?

 

Nintendo64
Super Mario 64 - 11.89M

Mario Kart 64 - 9.87M

Super Smash Bros - 5.5M

 

Nintendo GameCube

Super Smash Bros Melee - 7.07M

Mario Kart Double Dash - 6.95M

Super Mario Sunshine - 6.31M

 

Wii

Super Smash Bros Brawl - 12.77M

Super Mario Galaxy - 12.50M

How about listing Mario Kart WIi and SMG2?

Smash Bros. was a new IP on the N64, so that doesn't really count. Also, SM3DW/SM3DL is still far ahead of SSB4.
