Some thoughts:
1) This thread would be a lot more readable if there wasn't a big Sega picture every other post.
2) SquareEnix must be very worried about the PS3's situation. Japan is still the most important market for RPG's. FFX (1st one on PS2) sold almost 50% in Japan. The problem is that they can't risk other franchises to try and boost the PS3, because if it fails they'll be really screwed. They will try to keep the damage as low as possible, but they're not Sony's friend. They have their own business to manage so it is inevitable we'll see a big game for Wii. The first FF this generation will be on Wii (CC: Crystal Bearers) and it's very likely that KH3 will come to Wii as well. That's where the Japanes money is right now. DQ:Swords sold more than any PS3 game so far in Japan.
3) Imo MGS4 won't sell a lot of systems. It would be a big achievement if the game sold a million, so it's a liitle too much to ask for a 300.000+ console boost.
EDIT: Thanks for adjusting your sig size!
