@ montana, WaW has 7.1m sales already, without the competition from Gears and Resistance (less so), larger install bases and a better game, I think it can get to 9m, and I hope MK Wii does not sell that much, and that would be a ridiculous attach ratio, though still perfectly possible

By the last week of '08, the sales were only 6.4 million combined for WaW. We still don't know the entire lineup for the end of the year anyways. It's pretty unlikely unless the European launches were to become larger and more frontloaded. 9 million is definitely possible, but not in 2 months. Hell, after 2 months, the two versions of GTA4 did 9.5 million worldwide. Mario Kart Wii may not sell that much, but it will definitely sell a large amount. 25 million wouldn't be ridiculous sales if the Wii were to sell, say...20 million this year and end up at about 65 million.

If it had 25m sales, and the install base was 60-70m that is still one of the highest attach ratios ever, and is this game really that good?

I don't see 9m, but 8m is a possibility
