No.
The NSMB series is like the FIFA of 2D Mario platformers and people have woken up to that.
A real 2D Super Mario Brothers will still sell gorillions, but Nintendo needs to make one that is actually ambitious, pretty to look at, and creative before it happens again.
How is it like Fifa exactly? That's an annual series while NSMB is one per system. Even if that were true, what makes you think people have just now woken up to that? And even if that's true, why would that mean NSMB sales falter when Fifa sells uber well?

What do you mean, it's totally a new game for Wii U!

You are wrong about the new content not being as substantial as in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, because the inclusion of New Super Luigi U will make this Deluxe version be perceived as a doublepack. This is a big IP and Switch is so popular that not even the lack of a d-pad on the Joy-Cons will be able to prevent NSMBU Deluxe from selling 10m+ copies.

Might as well go tbone51 and put the question in the room if NSMBU Deluxe can outsell Super Mario Odyssey. Yes, I don't think that's likely, but where is tbone51 anyway?

Reading my Mario Kart 8 Deluxe prediction makes me hate Nintendo so much. They are quick to put out new Splatoon and new Super Smash Bros., but the IPs I like (Mario Kart and Super Mario Bros.) aren't likely to see a new installment anytime soon. Banking on the business rationale that online multiplayer will be a top priority with the move to a paid subscription service was also a big mistake on my part.
New Super Luigi U isn't new content, that would be Toadette who definitely doesn't hold as much weight as MK8D's battle mode. Otherwise yeah the game has a wealth of content. Dunno about beating Odyssey though, I think it would take a brand new 2D Mario to accomplish that feat.
