Doubtfull.
However I think PS3 software has a shot at outpacing Wii software on a more frequent basis in the next 6 months...( only reason Wii is still on top the last 2 months is because of the Wii bundling..)

Doubtful.  Bundling is actually going to push Wii software more now that WSR is being bundled in America, plus Wii has quite a few big titles coming over the next several months (Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid OM, DQM Battle Road, etc).  The only reason PS3's even been close the past several months is higher profile releases in Q1 like GOW3 and FFXIII, but it's pretty dry now for summer...

It did look dry indeed.

Before Red Dead Redemption suddenly became a smash hit.....

RDR will do most of it's sales on 360 (just like GTA4).  PS3 still benefits from a stronger multiplatform spread, but it's dearth of notable exclusives until fall will guarantee lower software sales than Wii.

Err ?

GTA4 did 6.52 mill on PS3, 7.8 mill on 360 and that was at a time when the 360 had a much better install base advantage percent wise...

Er, what?  I'm not sure how things changes anything I've just said?

Basically, nothing on PS3 will sell as well as Mario Galaxy 2, Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort until fall.  PS3 doesn't have a FFXIII or a GOW3 to draw in sales this summer, which is the only reason it was even close to Wii figures previously during Wii's empty (in terms of AAA releases) Q1.  Wii has the biggest new release, plus bundled titles, plus far, far stronger evergreens (NSMB, Wii Fit Plus, Mario Kart, Just Dance, etc).  I'm actually a little curious why you'd think PS3 could even approach Wii software in the immediate future?
