Since we are talking about sales of 2011 I will give my personal opinion.
The 360 will be in the most trouble since it now only relies on America with the sales being week in Japan and slowing in Others..G.O.W.3 isn't until Late 2011 and Kinect has proved to only be a system pushing hit in America. Kinect is strong in Others but hasn't really done anything big yet.
PS3 is gaining ground in Others and Japan. I expect it to continue to do well in those regions but in America PS3 is slowing quickly due to Kinect being a massive hit when compared to Move in America. If Sony doesn't do something soon in America PS3 could see some >30K weeks from America in 2011. Even without America I expect PS3>360 nearly every week in 2011.
Wii has the best chance of doing well in 2011 and I honestly don't see why many see the Wii in trouble again in 2011...I see the Wii being up YOY for most of 2011. I say this because 1. new games but more importantly the "legs" of already released games. If you think about it Nintendo has 2 already announced games for the 1st half of 2011.(Zelda and Mario Sports Mix in Others and America and Zelda and The Last Story in Japan) When compared to 2010...2011 wins easy. 2010 had S.M.G.2, Sin And Punishment, and Endless Ocean...T.L.S should be a decent hit in Japan and Z.S.S should make a big impact in America and a decent one in Others and Japan. Mario Sports Mix also has the potential to be a 10 Million seller! Also as I said the "legs" of the Holiday games will be so much better than last year. 2010 had the "legs" of N.S.M.B.W, Wii Fit Plus, Just Dance, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Play and Wii Sports Resort. 2011 will have the "legs" of N.S.M.B.W, Wii Fit Plus, Mario Kart Wii, Just Dance 1 and 2, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Wii Party, D.K.C.R, Disney Epic Mickey, Micheal Jackson The Experience, and uDraw (Studio). All 11 of these games should continue to sell well for a good part of 2011!
