Finally Kirby... it will gather some points from now on, it has 11 days left.

Super Mario Collection will be big, I thought that it was a limited quantity item, but it looks like it's a limited time offer, with no production limits. It will sell whatever people buy, or whatever Nintendo ships.

This could be the biggest year for the Wii in terms of million sellers in Japan.

2006: Wii Play and Wii Sports
2007: Super Mario Galaxy, Wii Fit and Mario Party 8
2008: Smash Bros Brawl, Mario Kart Wii and Animal Crossing: City Folk
2009: Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit Plus, New Super Mario Bros Wii and Monster Hunter Tri
2010: Wii Party, ????

Probable million sellers launched in 2010: Super Mario Galaxy 2, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Super Mario Collection, Mario Sports Mix and Donkey Kong Country Returns (this one depends on if its launched this year or not). FlingSmash I'd say no, because I don't see it as avery appealing item to the Japanese, even if bundled with the Wii Mote Plus.
What do you guys think?

If all those games make it to 1 million, it would be the year with the most million sellers launched with 6 games in total, and double the best year from Nintendo's first party games because they have been releasing 3 million sellers per year since 2007 (2006 didn't have enough time).

It looks like Nintendo is on their own now in Japan, so they will be releasing most of their remaining big guns without caring for the third party turds.

Iwata did say he Nintendo will ship more copies because of the fan determination. The last story, rythm heaven, DQX are the 3rd party titles that will sell really well but wont be coming out this year.

Rhythm Heaven and The Last Story are 1st party. I can see Rhythm Heaven with a slight chance of hitting 1 million, but I wouldn't count on it. The Last Story won't hit a million either. Zelda: SS won't either and neither will Fatal Frame 2 Remake.

So Nintendo hasn't got any huge games coming out in Japan next year so far. I can't see Pikmin 3 hitting 1 million either, but I can see Wii Relax doing it, unless it flops like Wii Music (Hypothetical case where both come out next year). Next year is really Nintendo's last push for the Wii, but as you can see this year will be the last big push for the console.

Inazuma Eleven Break and DQX next year are pretty huge.

I really don't think Kirby and DK will sell more than 1 million this year in Japan.

LT they should though, I can see them doing 400K min this year.

Highly unlikely.

No it's quite likely, it should do about 200K first week when it will have legs and nearing the christmas season it should have more.

I agree... Saying it wont do 400k is insane O_o
