How will they manage that without winning Japan, Europe or "rest of the world"?

North America is important, but the type of domination you'd have to achieve to off set all the other regions does not seem possible to me.

World wide I would be stunned to see either Microsoft or Nintendo end up outselling Sony in the next generation. I do find the battle for second place very interesting and could go either way as of right now.

Who said they can't take Europe? 

I'm sure no one expected Nintendo to...

They lost by 7 million to PS3 in Europe last go around despite being less expensive and earlier.  They will be 100 Euros more this time in a recession economy.  I will be amazed if Microsoft mange to cut into that 7 million, much less completely erase it.

I do not see any console doing a Wii in 8th generation, especially the most expensive one.
