No it didn't. A lack of content at launch and slow update releases limited its sales. Splatoon and Mario Odyssey push motion controls, and they had no problems selling crazy numbers, hell, even 1-2 Switch outsold ARMS. ARMS did well, but for a sequel, Nintendo needs to improve their pace at updating the game with new content. Motion controls are default in ARMS because that's the control scheme the game was designed to be played with.
