@mrstickball,

If the PS3 moves 40k units in japan this week that is a success for the game and the PS3 no doubt. Anyone saying otherwise is crazy. How likely is it to hit that number though? The last 4 weeks average sales have been ~13.3k, so 40k is essentially a tripling of sales. I don't know the Japanese markets as well as some of you, so I have to ask if that kind of move in sales due to game releases has any prior precedent?

As for being a console saver, in my mind it would need to account for at least some prolonged period of sales increase for it to be called that, and right now I don't think we really have any information to go on. So for my part at least I reserve judgment but I am skeptical that any single software title is capable of being a system saver.
