Metroid is certainly not the only good game to be released on 'Cube recently, and certainly won't be the last. The RE series will sell some consoles, Metroid will sell some consoles, Zelda might sell a shit load of consoles. Gameboy lovers might even buy one to play their GBA games on a TV.
I'm sure XBOX Live will sell some consoles for them, but I don't think the software is there in the future for them like it is for the 'Cube. Look at the recent Splinter Cell thread, which has about 1/10th the number of views as Metroid... even the XBOX Live threads are well below Metroid's. Splineter Cell and Live are probably the most exciting things the XBOX has this Christmas, and from the interest level's I've seen, I think Gamecube will out sell XBOX by a large margin.
Time will tell...
