No, they only update the top 10 and games that have sold over 1 million in that time. Wonder is likely selling on par or above games like ac, smash etc

It is not a good 2d Mario. That is why it is not selling as much as a 2d Mario should. NSMBU is actually a much more cohesive adventure, thus a better game despite its non-precise gameplay.
What monster sales. I wonder if NSMBU will reach the 20m sales once the Selects lineup comes up. Also, considering how high sales of Pokemon have been this gen, Pokken being merely above 1m is surprising, it was released quite early, it had enough time to sell.

Ok, your opinion was already made clear in another thread, if you want to further that, it'd be preferred that you make another thread on the NSMBU vs Wonder game design subject.
Also, stating something of this nature while NSMBU was released for much longer(4 years) than Wonder who hasn't even completed its first year yet is presumptuous. The game will get it's boost as any evergreen during the holiday season while continuing to sell during this current year. Not withstanding additional sales coming during the beginning of the Switch 2 lifespan.

Just make a sequel, it'd be easier to get news eyes on it.

Whenever someone says that MW is a really good game and it is not selling well enough because of any other reason than it actually not being a good 2d Mario game I will rebuke it as many times as I want.
Now, it is not presumptuous at all to say that about NSMBU because I am basing it off of quarterly reports. The same could be said about BotW vs TotK. Why has Nintendo not updated MW numbers? Because the numbers are probably embarrassingly low.
I do admit that I root for Nintendo almost as much as I root for my football club. I want its games to succeed and break sales records, that is why I criticize it when IMO their games fall in quality.

The game is critically acclaimed and user reviews are also extremely high. It has extremely positive WoM. You might not like the game but to say that reception of the game is anything but stellar is just factually incorrect. The only reason it wasn't updated was that it is not in the top 10 yet and didn't sell 1 million during the quarter. It's likely going by sales numbers we've seen that it is selling on par with other evergreen titles at the moment.
I agree that you should make a thread comparing the games, it would be interesting to compare and contrast the games.

Sure, but I imagine it has been a sales disappointment, considering everything else with the Pokemon brand has exploded this gen.
Oh no. It’s happening again.
On the topic at hand. Sales of 2.1 pretty much as expected. 13.5 won’t be feasible in lease there is a sales drop, killer game or some kind of marketing strategy rolled out prior to Xmas.

And you'll be welcomed to do all the rebuking you wish in another thread :) But this is merely a sales thread not a grand thread with the purpose of making a critique.
Also your perceived fall of quality, its just your own opinion, the critics and the public at large have turned an extremely positive review on the game. You can come in as a contrarian to that if you want but it does not erase the fact of it's accomplishment.
As for the numbers, Nintendo shows games that are in the software Top 10 or those who sold at least a million during the fiscal year. Wonder could be at 0.98M for all we know and they would not put it in.
