Upon its release, the game received generally positive reviews from both critics and fans, was nominated for several awards, and sold 6.44 million copies as of December 2020, making it one of the bestselling 3DS titles.
Joining alongside Luigi’s Mansion 3, this left the 2001 original the only title in the trilogy that has yet to make its way over to Nintendo Switch.
