Bets with Conegamer:
Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.
PS3 just barely edges out Wii according to MC, Wii just barely edges out PS3 according to VGC. I'd call it a statistical tie unless Famitsu is noticeably different from both trackers. I'd be worried if Wii didn't win next week but then again sequels generally don't have a whole lot of impact on HW. ACE:R and Episodes from Liberty City are performing pretty well on the COMG charts. The next few weeks are going to be rather interesting. Why isn't RDR getting a Japanese release? Rockstar has a pretty decent following over there considering how well GTA4 did and how well Episodes is looking to do.
Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Wii & PS3 have generally been tied since April, barring Golden Week's usual Nintendo push (which didn't last). I expect Wii will edge out PS3 next week, but you're right in that direct sequels generally don't push hardware much, so I wouldn't expect a significant enough spread to really say much.
The only upcoming games (with dates) that I'd expect to deliver that for the hardware would be DQM Battle Road (for Wii) and ACE: R (for PS3). Basara 3 might push PS3 too, though that game's still a bit of a wildcard imo (Musou style game should lean heavily PS3, but the female heavy fanbase may lean to Wii instead). Xenoblade could push Wii, but it could flop hard just as easily. Power Pro 2010 should push PS3 decently, but the PSP release may diminish it's impact and DQM will ensure Wii comes out ahead that week anyway.
RDR's weird, Capcom published Revolver in Japan too. With GTA4's success over there you'd think Rockstar would be eager to get it out and link them up.
Wii wins by 1k, the battle is fierce.
Next week, SMG 2 gets released for the Wii so it should stay ahead of the PS3 again.

I wasn't expecting Wii Party to be realeased so soon, it seems Wii will have a strong summer.
My prediction for its biggest titles. (over 100k)
- Xenoblade (06/10) ----- 100k - 150k
- Wii Party (07/08) ----- 500k - 1M (1,5M?)
- Dragon Quest Monsters: Battle Road Victory (07/15) ----- 350k - 500k
- Sengoku Basara 3 (07/29) ----- 100k
- Metroid Other M (09/02) ----- 100k - 120k
Predictions!? I'll do Wii & PS3's 100k (lifetime) sellers for summer...
Wii wins this week by 100 units.
Guesses for next week? PS3 is getting 2 re releases and Wii isn't getting any new releases.
