Mario Maker 2 also underwhelmed

even NSMBU, even tho it's an unambitous port, we saw that MK8 being a port as the bestselling Switch game, and for most of the Switch's lifespan NSMBU was the only 2D Mario but hasn't even crosses 20M when Wii & DS versions sold 30M.

I guess Mario already reached saturation well before the Switch era so the popularity of the Switch wasn't really gonna expand the series to many more people despite the Switch's huge install base.

Probably.

I hope they release a Mario Maker 3 though, it sold almost 9m. Weren't Nintendo shooting their own foot with peer-to-peer multiplayer and stopping with updates it would have done way better I feel.
