I don't know, seems like DKCR would appeal to the same NSMB Wii crowd and they'd already buy the console for that, and then you add in the fact DKCR doesn't support 4 players at once, meaning less local multiplayer appeal, and then it makes NSMB Wii look laughably easy so you're fragmenting your base, that just adds up to fewer sales and not really pushing consoles.

Yeah, it certainly won't move as many consoles as NSMB, but I consider it a "bridge game" like Mario Kart, that sorta appeals to gamers from all over the spectrum. So by that quality it should be a pretty significant hardware mover, at least far moreso than anything else on Wii this year.

That I can agree with, though Just Dance 2 might actually be up there with it, I don't get the crazy appeal of that game.  Personally I felt NSMB Wii was the perfect bridge title, I see DKCR as a game to lead people that played and enjoyed NSMB Wii into the realm of hardcore gaming.  Back at the start of the generation Nintendo said they wanted to get a new demographic and turn them into gamers and some were so hooked by NSMB Wii there has to be more than a few that want a little more challenge and DKCR is for them, but that backs up my thoughts that DKCR is for the people that already bought Wii for NSMB Wii.
