I think they showed it off at E3, don't remember anything from Gamescom though.

I think you're forgetting just how badly it did in Japan:
44./00. [WIU] Rodea the Sky Soldier (Kadokawa Games) {2015.04.02} - 2.725 / NEW
3DS version didn't chart.
Even if it were a megabomba for NISA (and I think it will be), it's going to outsell Japanese sales. But I guess it depends what your definition of "perform worse" is :P
I think it's quite sad what's happening with this game. It looks good. But it doesn't seem to be attracting any Nintendo fans, and the NISA-faithful either don't own a WiiU or 3DS or just don't seem interested in it since it's not their usual kind of game.
