One small change ( which shoudn't change the outcome but will make the race a lot closer).
ioi had the Wii slightly outselling the PS3 starting last week and it doesn't look like it is shaping to be this way.
It looks like the PS3 will outsell the Wii until NSMBWii releases.

The PS3 should have a 140k lead or so at that time...

I dunno, they're basically selling at parity now.  I think we'll generally see that continue, with continual back and forth until December's Wii assault hits on the 3rd.  After that it's going to be all an Wii lead for 2009, bar FFXIII week.

PS3 should get  a nice spike next week from WE2010 though, and Wii might the week after from FFCC.  Wii has a much better November overall, but most of it's bigger games aren't frontloaded sellers (Taiko 2, Mario & Sonic 2, Joysound DX) and probably won't cause any hardware spikes.

based on the preview PS3 is getting a decent spike this week too and should outsell the Wii by 10k or so..
