You probably should if you want to be believed and taken seriously. You don't actually expect me to just take your word for it do you especially when I provided a logical explanation, and that you're gonna rely on "because I say so!" logic makes me less willing to discuss with you.

I see it as a memorable game so there goes that claim, not that it meant anything anyway as people buy games because they like them, not just cause they're memorable, otherwise they'd never buy new games to become memorable in the first place. The sales of previous NSMB games show that the series is very well liked, this is fact.

It's not just me, no one with common sense is gonna agree with taking anecdotal minority opinions over cold hard numbers especially when time and time again the former is irrelevant. Most immediate example? The very NSMB series we're discussing. The bashing of the series had already started, yet NSMB2 and U were still among the top sellers for their system alongside Mario Kart.

"And i don't necessarily see big sales being a decisive factor for that to happen." - Why though? Probably because the sales never line up with your emotion based arguments, but I'm interested in hearing what you come up with to try and rationalize that sentence with.

Want to know why i didn't and won't question your assumption? Simple. You didn't even bother to ask how i got to have that impression. You automatically assumed it was through forum posters.
So, why bother telling someone they are wrong or might be wrong, when they already decided they are right?

"I see it as a memorable game so there goes that claim,"
This wasn't about personnal opinions.

First, i never claimed anything more than having an impression, yet, somehow, you keep reading my comments as what i said was the utmost truth.
I already told i don't mind being proven wrong. I even added that i had not make any claims.

Again, Mario Sunshine sold very, very well. Did that change how people perceive the game until this day? No. 
Based on that, i don't believe if the game was ported, it would do as well as the original. But this is just a belief. Nothing more.

This is was i wrote in my first post:

"I'm not sure it will be able to go that far.

This is one of the Wii U games that wasn't a hot title or even a treasured one. Unlike MK8 or Mario Maker, for example.
Because of that i really don't see how it could sell that well. Specially if 2019 has a better (more system sellers and exclusives) line-up than 2018."

Can you see there any claim that the game will do this or that way?
