I guess it was too similar to Returns to make some impact. I thought of saying there's a 2D platformers flood on the Wii U, making most of them sell bad, but Yoshi sold over a million already.

Yep, basically Yoshi and the constant sales of NSMBU has proved the theory wrong. I stick to my view that this was not what people wasked for and thus the dissapointment.

I don't think Donkey Kong Country games have ever been big system sellers, to be honest. I always saw them as the kind of games that sell to an established userbase. It might have not been the case with the first one on the SNES, but regardless it is how I've always felt about the franchise as a whole.

And then again, Retro Studios themselves haven't really made any system sellers in the past.

Even when Prime was not a system seller, it was useful to brag about an impressive game. Unlike DK.
