Just look at the numbers. The PS3 launched in EU 1 1/2 years after the 360, and at a much higher price, yet the PS3 is 5.7M+ ahead of it now. And that gap is only going to continue to grow. Probably end up being 8M-10M. Now, what will happen there if the PS4 and NeXbox launch around the same time for almost the same price?
Japan is more Nintendo? Maybe for handhelds. However, the PS1 and PS2 did much better there than the N64 and Gamecube. Sony may claim 1st there again, especially with how poorly the Wii U is selling there, currently.

Did you look at the numbers? The gen is nearly over and it's got a 5.7 million console gap now only months before the 720 and ps4 release. That will slow the sales, not make them explode. 7-8 million tops, 10 million? Nearly double the gap?
You're dreaming.

The gap is going to be ~7M at the end of this year. So, 10M is doable, as Sony will be pushing the PS3 there, as an affordable upgarde in the parts the PS2 were still selling. The 360 won't stay on shelves as quite as long, as well.
