It really is interesting. Btw, a proper fresh 2D Mario on Switch would probably match/surpass the NSMBWii level of sales.

Only if they can shake the NSMB brand. It should probably stay 2.5D, but it needs another rebranding the way the original NSMB did. Maybe even a moderate shakeup in the formula. NSMB is just too stale. It was one thing when it flopped on the Wii U, but it had no business doing worse than 3D Land on the 2DS. Something is definitely wrong. The series needs some kind of shakeup. And hey, a new style like that will give Nintendo another Mario era mode to put into the next Mario Maker, which would be fun. I've a feeling the next Mario Maker will be an explosive jump in sales from the first as well.

Yeah, that's what I mean. I agree, they need to shake up the series à la Odyssey (3D Mario got stale too with 3D World, but Odyssey changed that introducing new mechanics and visuals). If they just port NSMBU or make a generic new one, it would probably end up doing about the same as NSMB2 on 3DS.
