I agree, it's going to be quite some time before another game beats Halo 3's American first week.
However, if the 900k+ numbers for Japan are accurate, I do think that SSBB has a shot at beating Halo's worldwide first week (3.8 million). The staggered launch makes things a bit easier for Nintendo, of course, but even so, that's an impressive feat. All it needs is 2 million in NA and 1 million in EU.
