Interesting, I wonder why Tropical Freeze underperformed so much, it's a great game that deserves to sell much more than it has

 

TF is truly an amazing game, but is extremely difficult (especially if you like to collect special things). It makes other 2-d side scrollers look like a joke in terms of difficulty (I did beat it and did a lot of collectible things).

Wooly World has an irrisistable art style (freaking yarn...) and is EXTREMELY kid friendly (I've heard it's very easy, haven't played it yet).

Also, TF released with less install base which should always be considered.

 

Donkey Kong Country outsold Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong 64 outsold Yoshi's Story, Donkey Kong Country Returns outsold Kirby Epic Yarn (easy, similar aesthetic).

Install base at launch doesn't matter, they both have the same amount of current install base to sell to.
