Good idea for a topic. By way of contributing, let me provide the numbers of some of the current Wii games closest to the 1 million mark:

Mario Strikers Charged (880k)
Big Brain Academy (820k)
Resident Evil 4 (800k)
Sonic and the Secret Rings (720k)
Tiger Woods 07 (720k)
Pokemon Battle Revolution* (600k)
Excite Truck (510k)
Trauma Center (510k)
Metroid Prime 3* (500k)

(Titles with an asterisk either lack European sales data or have not been released there to date.)

Obviously a lot of these games are just about finished selling, but I tried to list everything over 500k just for comparative purposes. Mario Strikers does indeed look like the best chance to hit 1 million next; it's selling a little under 10k in the American market weekly, likely a similar number in Europe, and did 22k in Japan last week (still a new release). It should be able to do ~25k worldwide for the next four weeks and pass 1 million in the first or second week of November. Mario Galaxy is the only other game with a realistic chance of passing 1 million sooner (depends on how big the opening week in Japan is).

Surprised no one mentioned Big Brain Academy Wii, which will surely pass 1 million before the end of 2007.
