in 13 weeks:
Japan from 4,81m -> 5,84m = 1,03m or 79k per week.
USA from 3,49m -> 4,62m = 1,13m or 87k per week.
Europe from 2,47m -> 3,44m = 0,97m or 74k per week.

In Europe PS3 doing per average 90-100k. So, it will do fine during this period.
In USA, we should wait for NPD numbers, then it will be clear how it will do. But 80GB bundle definitely will move some units.
The only problem is Japan, 20k vs 79k, this is where ps3 is going to be behind a lot.
Overall not bad. =)

Games that will come in this period:
Soul Calibur 4
Afrika
Disgaea 3
Eternal Sonata
Star wars:U
Saint Row 2
Mercinaries 2
Brothers in arms

Most multiplatform games and not very big releases. =) So unless, there will be a pricecut, we shouldn`t excpect spikes of sales during this time.
