I find it hard to believe that both these games will make a profit . Bayonetta didnt do well enough to justify a sequel on the ps3/x360. While xenoblade did ok its sales still werent that great. Taking both these to a console with much fewer sales, and I dont really see either doing great. At best I reckon both will be even or only slightly profitable. Still if the nintendo crowd really goes for these games, and we see a huge boost in wii u numbers for the rest of the holiday period (its doing well right now), then these could surprise me.

Xenoblade did fantastic especially for an expirement, it sold out of its stock really quickly and almost hit 1 million units sold

Anything less than 1M is good if the game didnt cost a lot to make, but is still not great. While it may have made a profit I doubt it was a huge one. And considering xeno released on a console with an install base of >70M while X will release on a console with an install base of 6M (or something like this) I dont think it will get the same sort of sales.  

I agree, its why they should wait to launch it until after Smash Bros, because X appeals to that audience much more than the DK / Mario Kart audience.
