I guess this will be more relevant next week but it seems Nintendo has had at least a decent BF spike.

I expect 360 to be above this and PS3 to be close to this but I guess the Wii can still shift HW/SW in decent numbers. Sounds like 3DS did very well too. I expect by the end of the holidays the early talk of "doomed" is going to start looking a little exaggerated.

You expect PS3 to get close to 500k for Black Friday alone and for it to get close to a 600k week in the USA.  I dont see PS3 sales increasing 90 - 100% on last year (last year PS3 also had GT5 in its 1st week).

I'm also not sure how much room there is for massive numbers across the board. 

Last year total sales for the 3 in the USA for the week were 1.45m

I'm assuming 600k for Wii, 750k for 360...

Kind of ironic that you brought that up. Like I said to Seece in the other thread, you've made predictions based on VTriggers data. His exact read on the situation, based on actual hard data:

"That being said, do not expect the Wii to beat the 360 this week, its not happening.  Should be 360 in first by a comfortable margin then Wii with PS3 slighly behind it."

The first half of his projection seems to have held true. How do you suppose the latter will play out? Are you writing him off now like Seece did? I can only imagine the meldowns that would occur if PS3 were to pull a 600k week in Americas.
