Well, actually I just checked and it was three weeks. It was also the three weeks after PS3 got:
- a price cut
- the new 40 GB model
- Dualshock 3
- the new White color model
- several new games (some even bundled if I recall correctly)
Even during those weeks, software didn't sell that great. It seems the enthusiasm during those weeks was more about the PS3 as a Blu-Ray player, which is further evidenced by PS3's lousy attach rate in Japan (much worse than the Wii's and the 360's).
To put it bluntly and sarcastically - congratulations to PS3 for beating the Wii in a totally meaningless context during three weeks, after getting outsold for a year.
