Can the 360 retake the lead from the Wii?

No systems are supply constrained within America. You can readily find any system you so desire. That is not a issue anymore. Technically it hasn't been a issue for months. Enough fellow posters can back me up on that. You can go get a Wii now any time you so desire.

I work at Costco (5th largest retailer in America?) and we have only had the Wii stocked a dozen different times (usually for a few days at a time). I guess we could have sold 5-10 times that much. Even now, we only had the Wii in stock once last month and once this month. For the majority of time the Xbox 360 and PS3 have been around, we have had them. Costco is just one of the many stores that will not be able to have a steady supply of Wiis until next year at the earliest. Same thing for many online stores like Amazon. I have checked dozens of times and never seen the Wii for sale on Amazon (I know they sell it, they are just almost always sold out).

Also, about this list

>The Orange Box (just out, we'll see how the numbers do next week)
Mass Effect
Assasin's Creed
Rock Band
Virtua Fighter 5
Call of Duty 4
Army of Two
GHIII

Is that for PC, PS3 or 360? Because I cannot tell :)

The Wii has a better version of GHIII and don't expect much for VF5. That game has never been popular in America or even good, except in the arcade. Hell, Link’s Crossbow Training, Manhunt 2, and Mario & Sonic at the Olympics may all kill it in sales. I don't think the Japanese sales are gonna be good for half of the games listed, either.

To answer the question, the 360 will never reach Wii levels.
