Mario Wonder is selling great, it's approaching 2 million in Japan in less than 7 months, which is around how much BOTW has sold in 7 years, or Super Mario Party in 6 years, and it's already beaten a lot of high fliers such as Switch Sports and Mario Party Superstars.

There's really no need to downplay it.

It's doing fine, it just isn't going to provide the same kind of "Switch boost" other IPs like Zelda and even 3D Mario got. 

The criticism that it's already being outsold on a weekly basis by older titles like Minecraft and Mario Kart and Smash Bros. is kinda fair though, that probably is something you wouldn't expect to be happening on the regular. 

I honestly think wonder is gonna hurt the franchise. 2d mario has become for casuals and the over world is annoying to navigate, plus the wonder seed makes the level messy. My sister is a super casual was like she likes NSMU better.
