I dunno, I'm just not seeing the hype myself, Paper Mario is more a series that sells to a smaller base of dedicated Nintendo fans and they seem undecided and cautious at the moment after the poor reception of the last two games in the series. Granted, this could be a much better game and will likely sell better than prior entries thanks to the Switch boost, but trailer views don't necessarily translate into high sales.

I can't think of any game that had high trailer views that was unable to deliver high sales.

Well, I'm too lazy to trawl through years of both but the two numbers do not necessarily correlate. A quick look at some Nintendo games shows some games pulling like a quarter or less than half of their trailer views. Now, I'm not saying Paper Mario sales won't be good, but 4 million trailer views don't guarantee it'll sell 7.5m plus.
