The key reason is image and marketing.
Does call of duty and co sell good because of the great games? No. They sell because its cool to play call of duty any everybody else in class does it.
But playing mario isnt really cool, right? Even if every critics on the internet gave mario a way better score, its just not cool and wont sell.
I also doubt that hardware is a to big issue. Xbox one and PS4 arnt that powerfull either and the wii u games are still looking good.
I know many many people who own all 3 consoles and most say, the wii u is their favourite. Its really nothing about bad quality, just bad marketing.
