Then can you show me the blockbuster games confirmed to be releasing next year for ANY console, please?

360 = Gears of War 3 - Average of 5.75 million per game, opening 2 days was 2 million for the last on, I expect that to be flat given the different time of year of release
wII = Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword - No stats required, it's Zelda
3DS - Whatever Nintendo wants, I haven't paid much attention to the 3DS lineup, but Nintendo always has some thing so far beyond excess on their handhelds...5 million is too low really.
Multi - CoD, Potentially GTA too if announced.

No Gears game has ever sold over 3 Million in a week, and Gears 2 has sold less than Gears 1. The sales of the series are declining. So no. Not a "blockbuster".
No Zelda game has ever sold over 3 Million week one (correct me if I'm wrong), so no. Again, by your description... Not a "Blockbuster".
3DS, you didn't even name a game. The only game i can see hitting 3 Million in a week is a Pokemon game. But... Pokemon Black/White is for the DS... Not the 3DS... Sooo...
COD - Yes. Easily. Within the first hour of being on sale. That gives us 2 Blockbusters.
GTA - No idea if one is even releasing yet.
So... Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Pokemon Black & White. 2 Blockbusters releasing next year. Only one of them is exclusive to a platform.

Silly boy. 5 million LTD and 3m week one are not mutually exclusive qualifyers.

Yes. They are. They must be, otherwise you wouldn't have mentioned them.
Are you seriously saying that a game that sells 3 Million in a week, but only manages 4 Million lifetime is a blockbuster? But for other games they have to reach 5 Million?
Sounds stupid. But hey. There is no guarantee that Gears 3 or Zelda: Skyward Sword will reach 5 Million sales. So it doesn't really matter. As i said, Gears is declining in sales, and Gears 2 has been negatively recieved by a LOT of Gears 1 fans.
Zelda, is going to have a REALLY tough time reaching that 5, looking at your "Averages" thing.
