Had a look at the numbers and there is a chance all three could hit the mark in the same week, but obviously boosts and slowing sales affect when they will hit those marks so I thought I would get your predictions

 

Xbox 360 - 992,652/7,348

24th January - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 7.3k (12 weeks) 914,083

31st January - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 7.4k (11 weeks) 921,481

7th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 8.1k (9 weeks) 929,577

14th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 10k (7 weeks) 939,576

21st February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 24.1k (2 weeks) 963,707

28th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 13.2k (2 weeks) 977,956

7th March - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 14.7k (1 week) 992,652

Street Fighter IV and Resident Evil 5 should give the 360 a slight boost, Ninja Blade seems to have done nothing if previews are anything to go by. Not much else software wise coming out for the 360, other than Star Ocean 4!!!

Microsoft has the bundles ready, they know they sell like hot cakes, it all depends on if Microsoft get enough of these out. SO4 doesn't look to be a run of the mill JRPG, the Japanese should lap this up. Also note RE5 is getting a bundle. Halo Wars is unlikely to make any impact whatsoever.

 

Playstation 3 - 2,968,890/31,110

24th January - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 17.8K (10 weeks) 2,824,281

31st January - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 16.9k (10 weeks) 2,841,204

7th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 16.8k (9 weeks) 2,857,983

14th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 19.1k (7 weeks) 2,877,072

21st February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 16.2k (7 weeks) 2,893,283

28th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 35.9k (2 weeks) 2,928,635

7th March - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 40k (1 week) 2,968,890

Again Street Fighter IV and Resident Evil 5 are out in this period, these games should also give the PS3 a bigger boost than the 360. Not sure if there is a RE5 bundle? Killzone 2 like HW is unlikely to make an impact. Yakuza 3 should give a boost. A quick look at wiki shows no other games are coming out in this timeframe that will have an impact, we all know how unrealiable Wiki is though so if you know of a game you think could boost sales please let me know (don't just list any old crap, please)

 

Wii - 7,898,477/101,533

24th January - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 26.5k (9 weeks) 7,775,360

31st January - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 24.3k (9 weeks) 7,799,669

7th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 20.1k (9 weeks) 7,820,565

14th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 20.1k (8 weeks) 7,841,573

21st February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 18.1k (8 weeks) 7,859,703

28th February - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 20.2k (6 weeks) 7,879,956

5th March - Estimated time reaching goal with this weeks sales 18.6k (6 weeks) 7,898,477

 

Again a quick look on wiki show nothing! If you know of anything post and let me know.

 

Personally I reckon Playstation 3 will nip it, depending on how many SO4 bundles Microsoft put out!
