Actually, the wii will have to hold it's sales very steady to beat the ps2 total sales.

Wii has sold 20M in 55-60 weeks. That's about 350k/week in average.

Ps2 came out about july 00.

Untill july 07 it had sold about 110 million machines. That's seven years or 364 weeks. That's 304k/week.

On the other hand, the DS has 65 million in 162 weeks, that's 400k/week.

I think this chart pretty much says it all

 

The DS has consistently tracked ahead of the PS2 and the Wii has consistently tracked ahead of the DS. Both of these systems will outsell the PS2 since they both will continue to sell even after their successors are available as the PS2 has done.
