ACE:R is going to have a pretty nice opening so I'm pretty sure PS3 will win next week. It might not even be down by a lot from this week. I just realized, if it does do comparable numbers to this week then PS3 could be ahead of the Wii for YTD sales.

The question now is the PS3 able to outsell Wii on 2010???



Now that MH3rd is scheduled on 1st of Dec, i think most of the nintendo titles will be scheduled accordingly not to coincide with it. I expect DK to hit Dec 8th, kirby sometime in nov, and last story will probably coincide with DK(same way SW did with NSMB). I also think Inazuma will be key to detrmining ow the wii performs. But from the looks of it, the wii is gna have its roughest patch these 2 months...

 

Edit: So Kirby release date on october 14, with a new announcement super mario collection on the 21st. It's a whole different october now!! Cant wait for the nintendoo conference now!



Updated the OP with November releases.
