Small bump? If I'm not mistaken, sales went up 180% AND put the PS3 past the Wii....far from a small bump

Pretty much -- it was a good bump. The only people who should be disappointed are those who thought that MGS4 (or any game) was suddenly going to rocket the PS3 to victory (of which there are a few such examples on this forum).
