Glad to see both games doing well.
Though I was (probably) wrong when I thought Wii Music would sell 3M-5M lifetime. The negative PR caused by gaming pubs/sites who don't get it or were upset over how it was featured at E3 has proved to be tough to overcome. (The people buying the games don't follow that -- but the people who sell them at the stores do.)
Meanwhile, LBP is tracking well. But it is not doing what a lot of people thought it would do (and which I disagreed with them on) -- causing console sales to surge.
What is really amazing though is that given all the pre-buzz for LBP, there does not seem to be any in-store buzz. Meanwhile, there are Wii Music displays at Gamestop (paid for by Nintendo ... no doubt). So LBP selling on par with Wii Music, especially given the install base differential means you have to give LBP some "props."
