I hope Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. does well. The demo is great!
It's a new IP, so hopefully it has good legs due to word of mouth.
Nintendo haven't helped things with the iffy promotion of the game, lack of a hard release date (despite being out soon), and inconsistent ability to pre-order at some stores.
I can't help but think that those STEAM preorders are really off. I can believe they're quite low, but I have a hard time buying that it overall had ~150 preorders previously then suddenly got ~850 in one week.
