It outsold the original in less than 6 months and can probably leg it out to 10m so it definitely did great overall. I'm guessing you were expecting it to be as big as MK8D and Mario Odyssey which is reasonable given how much better those series have done on Switch. While NSMBUD certainly doesn't help, I think it's more that the game just isn't as impressive n ambitious as the aforementioned games. I mean it literally looks like an NES/SNES game half the time. :L
