I have not read further, but from talking to Reps from Ubi, they are not ashamed to admit that the majority of their sales/profit come from the Pets and girls games that they put out on the Wii and DS.

EDIT: to clarify, the article was mainly about RS2 meeting their (lowered) expectations (which is a 2010 release), but has an aside that ubisoft also noted the above about last year.
