The numbers must have been adjusted, then.
And it will cross that easily enough, Link's Crossbow Training is selling much more briskly than is Twilight Princess.
I can't help but wonder how Skyward Sword will do.

Probably around Twilight Princess levels. The Wii has far fiercer competition on it now than it did when Twilight Princess launched, so that's going to pull it down quite immensely. The bigger installbase doesn't quite make up for that.

Fiercer competition for a Zelda title? Do tell. And more, explain why that competition hasn't affected TP's legs.

The Wii's software sales are at its peak. It's selling as much software this year as it did last year, and the year before that. It's also going to sell roughly as much software this year as next, I'm not going to get into why this is right now.
Every year, more and more games are trying to get a slice of the total software sales. The games from previous years, like Mario Kart Wii, are still kicking strong. Thus, there's every year more and more competition for the software sales.
All games on a platform are in competition with one another. Some to a far larger extent than others, but all to some extent. Twilight Princess released on a platform with few big competitors, Skyward Sword is releasing against extremely hard competition, possibly the fiercest competition of any console, and at least the toughest on any NIntendo console.
