Lair (PS3) - 100k / 250k -PS3 owners are thirsty, this will sell well
Metroid Prime 3 (Wii) - 200k / 350k -Preorders on this seem really high, scores will be in the 9's
Halo 3 (X360) - 800k / 1,750k -I would have said over 2 mil last year, but the Beta seemed to kill the buzz. Not that it was bad, but it just seemed to remover the mystery, and even fufilled alot of peoples Halo desire.
Call of Duty 4 (PS3/360) - 200k / 400k Some estimate are way too high here, while the legs will be long, there are a lot of other good FPS coming out.
Bioshock (360) - 100k / 200k - another one with long legs, I just don't think people really know about this game.
Blue Dragon (360) - 50k / 100k - Eh.
Mass Effect (360) - 100k / 350k - Not enough hype yet.
Super Mario Galaxy (Wii) - 400k / 700k - The hype is building steadily, once MP3 comes out it will go through the roof.
Super Smash Brothers (Wii) - 400k / 700k - Ditto.
Heavenly Sword (PS3) - 100k / 450k
Grand Theft Auto (PS3/X360) - 1,000k / 2,000k How many copies can they manufacture. (I am not really looking forward to this, but I am open to some of the story evolution.)
Nintendo has some money stashed away from what I hear. If they really wanted to they could set some records by advertising any of those three games to the point where every one in America will want them; however this isn't a good move for Nintendo because they are going to sell millions of copies anyway, so why over advertise. Same goes for GTA4. Halo on the other hand seems to be over hyped right now, where there has been a bit of a back lash. I think MS should shift gears and promote their other games some more (which they have already started doing, remember e3 '07).
I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
