I personally think that this may possibly be simply because there are such a wealth of oldschool retro gamers who prefer 2d over 3d and it's doing so well because they are introducing it to their kids and buying it themselves, and anyone under the age of maybe ten still remembers playing mario as they were growing up, however i believe that maybe in a few more generations (i don't know how many) eventually 2d will die out since it won't catch on with the new generation and it is then when most of the retro gamers are pushed out that 3d will become dominant and 2d will become much more of a cult thing
