I don't know where you got your 2D platformer is a better launch option argument from because TP on the Wii sold 7.2m a full 2.2m more then what NSMBU has sold in total, 2d platformers sell to the userbase already there they don't really bring in new people to the userbase. TP sold 500k on it's first day with the Wii for reference.

Twilight princess sold 7mio copies on 100mio installed hw base = 7%attachment rate

NSMBU sold 5Mio ond 12 Mio installed hw base = 40%attachment rate.

 

You really cant be serious if your claiming TP was the better launch title lol. Just compare a 2d mario vs a zelda game on the same plattform.

 

Youtube views are great to compare general interest in a game. In your argumentation, sales are bad as well. 1 person could buy 20 copies of a game, where another person just buys 1. That argumentation doesnt make even a little bit sense.

Wii didn't have 100m people at launch did it, TP not only moved more hardware at launch then NSMBU it helped in giving the platform high momentum something that you can't argue here. 2D Mario is not a system seller and NSMBU has proven that, it's a game that sells to people already there.

Youtube views have no substance in an argument, they're often a desperate argument people turn to, 1m people can watch a video 20 times each giving it 20m views while 3m people can watch another video once giving it 3m views yet more people watched the latter, it's simple flaws like this that highlight why it's a weak argument.
