But what if the software just isn't selling? Guitar Hero and Rock Band are responsible for one-half of all Wii software sales in the US.

What?  That sounds like complete BS to me.

Of course it is unless you are looking at some extremely limited set of games.

If we look at 08's results, we can see that Ubisoft sold 27m units and they don't make any music games at all. I can pretty much gurantee that there weren't 27m guitar hero and rock band sales in 08 for Wii.

If we look at 09, we get the same thing. Ubisoft sold 8.7m games, and they don't make rock band or guitar hero.
