I really have a hard time believing the PS3 outselling the Wii on Black Friday. I see 360 doing crazy, Wii not too far , PS3 Hanging tough.

Hmm last year Wii did 600k, PS3 did 440k in 09 (It did outsell 360 that year, apologies to Themeintial or however you spell your name) so it's defo possible if demand is similar to 09 levels. Wii deals are barren this year except for the walmart $99 Wii deal.

It's thismeintiel (which is actually misspelled itself)!  God, get it right!    Anyway, apology accepted.  Personally, I see demand for the PS3 being high, though the 360 will probably come out on top.  However, I don't think there was that much of a crazy demand for the Wii.  Not that it will do horrible numbers, and I could be wrong, but I think the Wii will come last in the home consoles.

This-me-initial, sorry but it's the best I'm gonna be able to remember! In US 360 will floor PS3 for sure, and we always knew (did we?) that Wii and PS3 would be close. I have only see a few people on the net from varied forums say Wii was doing well though, I dunno, maybe it'll surprise us all with that Wal-Mart deal. I think PS3 will be up YoY by a fair bit, so Sony should give some numbers on it (although recently even when they are up YOY they don't dish out numbers) MS will given numbers, and 3DS will do well, so hoping they do a full breakdown as per usual.

Ah, close enough, lol.  And yea, I'm hoping for concrete numbers, as well.  Also, I wouldn't exactly use the word "floor."  Sure, if the 360 sold like 400-500K this week in Americas and the PS3 only sold like 200K, then by all means say the 360 floored the PS3.  Of course, the difference isn't going to be that big.  You're right about the Wii may surprise us, it usually does during the holidays.  But, I'm thinking this year will be weaker for it considering the Wii U has been announced and the flow of great games for it has definitely slowed to a crawl.  We'll just have to wait and see.
