Could PS3 be the #1 selling home console in EMEAA in Q4? I think so!

Not a chance. Wii sales always jump in November/December. However the 3 home consoles will have a smaller sales spread then in the past.

It's November already and PS3 is ahead without GT5!

Yea, but the holiday season is only just starting. End of November/December sales trump the rest of the year, and last year Nintendo made a third of their yearly sales in December alone. If you look at trends, Wii sales have also been growing more rapidly then PS3 sales. It will be closer then in the past, but I think PS3 sales from now until the end of the year will only just best 360 sales. Wii is on its own league.

GT5 will only offset DKCR sales at best.

As I pointed out above if you look at the YOY comparison you can see it's still very much up in the air. Assuming PS3 can remain at least flat in December (all signs point towards it being up) the best case scenario I can see for the Wii is it outselling the PS3 by 600k in December and that's being pretty optimistic about the Wii's YOY chances and pessimistic about the PS3's.
