Wii 3rd party games seem to be doing well (Sengoku Musou 3, Momotaru Denetsu 2010, Taiko Wii 2, Tales of Graces). MH3 on the verge of a million finally too. Even "bombs" like WE Playmaker 2010 and Karaoke Joysound DX look like they'll end up with okay-ish figures in the end.

Curious to see how Biohazard DSC and Tasunoko Vs Capcom UAS do in January...

Wow how things have changed in a few weeks.  SW3, taiko 2, and TOG looked like bombs.  Now SW3 and taiko 2 look quite successful, and TOG is probably gonna reach 250k at this rate which is decent especially since it launched the week before FF13.  Momotarou is doing really well.  The only casualty seems to be FF:CC, which is kinda funny because FF is the strongest brand of all of these games. 

Pretty much.  I know it's helped by the release schedule and the holidays, but it's still weird seeing just as many or more 3rd party Wii games in the top 50 as PSP, PS2 or PS3 3rd party games.
