@Lord: Well, what Iwata said was not really convincing, since he knew that Black Wii and MH3 were releasing during the period he mentioned. Now we won't ever know what the extent of what he said was true or false. We can't discard MH3 and the Black Wii only because Iwata said WSR was going to be responsible and no one will ever know.
I think Black Wii and MH3 play a bigger role since they are aiming at totally new users, while WSR aims mostly at people who already own the original. He isn't totally wrong, but disregarding MH3 and the Black Wii would not be correct. So people claiming that Iwata was correct based on the weekly HW figures are wrong, because there were 3 important events that boosted the Wii a lot.
