I think the immediate future (through the end of September) is very bleak. A strong release schedule in Japan and Zelda in the West is keeping the weekly numbers where they are now, but the numbers are already back down in the West and in Japan the only thing left is Pokemon Scramble at the end of the month. I think there will be quite a few weeks where WW sales are less than 50k. The holidays will determine how well it does long term I think, if a new marketing campaign and the Mario titles aren't enough to get some real momentum going then I think the long-term prospects for the system are not promising.
