Take a look in the charts to see which game has the longer legs (I know Halo 2 has been a staple of the charts since it first came out).  Also you can't just looked at the Wii's installed base and make some kind of calculation compared to the Gamecube's because the audiences for both systems are not the exact same.  There are people buying Wiis that were never gamers before but picked one up because of Wii Sports, I can't see many of those kinds of people having bought Gamecubes.  Anyways what I'm trying to say is that the Wii's audience is much more diverse than the Gamecube's so chances are a game in some hardcore genre will very likely not have the same attachement rate on the Wii that they would have on the Gamecube.

Maybe; after all, we all don't know. But I wouldn't call SSB a pure "hardcore audience" game (whatever that is). It contains a collection of some of the most iconic characters in gaming, and keeps expanding cleverly - the additonal Pokemon characters in Brawl, for example.

But I admit, Halo3's hype and preorders are intimidating.
