Wii = 794.5k consoles behind 360

[shams]

There shouldn't be much guessing involved here.

Over the last 4 weeks, the Wii has outsold the 360 by:

 - 180k (last week)

 - 210k

 - 155k

 - 170k (4 weeks ago)

...

Next week will be a biggie for the Wii (in Japan), so that's a 210k week. That leaves 410k remaining.

At best it could then be 2 weeks - but I think it will be 3 (much more likely). Especially with Madden hitting in the US, odd things could happen.

So in 4 weeks from now, the Wii will definitely be ahead of the 360 - barring a minor miracle from MS.

So that makes it (week ending) August 19th. Figures will be out mid-following week, and by the time the Jap charts are out - it will be certain.

If Ninty release more consoles than usual, there is a distinct chance it could be the previous week.

(sort of ironic that once this happens, Metroid is released to "finish them off"... I wonder if Nintendo scheduled Metroid for this event :>).

Let the one month countdown begin!
