@Midnightrider: Punch-Out!! was never supposed to be a hardware seller though.. The last two games that were supposed to be hardware sellers were Wii Music and Animal Crossing and they both underperformed.
Also saying that Wii hardware is going back to what it was is silly considering it hasn't been 6 - 8 weeks. In about 8 weeks time, just as Wii Sports Resort should be hitting it's stride, Wii Fit Plus releases in Japan and around the rest of the word shortly after. Then Nintendo have New Super Mario Bros. Wii about a month after that.
Add to that the fact that this will be the first holiday season that Wii is not supply constrained and you can see why Nintendo held it's projections steady.
