Will PS3 outsell the Wii WW once shortages are fixed by the 40nm model?

I think RDR PS3 actually has a shot at outselling GoW3......

Even if so, I'd say it has basically no chance of outselling Galaxy 2. You seem to pinning a lot on RDR, what else is there?

What title capable of selling more than 500k are getting released on the Wii in the next 3 months ?

SMG2 and Tiger Woods 11, that's about it...........

PS3 got RDR ( this week), Mod Nation's Racers, Blur, UFC 2010.

And early August , Madden 11 !

Basically I'm calling now that PS3 software will beat Wii software at least 4 weeks before end of August....( it did not win a single week last year over the same period and never did better than 60% of Wii software on any given week...)

Which weeks then? I could see maybe Madden launch (provided we don't also get Metroid that week), but what else?

Well this week for starter ( the one ending May 23rd).

Madden launch week.

we will have to see for the other two weeks ( most lijkely in July/August)

Does the week include the 23rd? 1st day of US Galaxy 2 sales may keep RDR from taking it for PS3 overall... this should also be the first full week for the WSR Black Wii bundle in the US (and first week it was advertised).

The only territory that ends their week on a Sunday is Japan. No SMG2 sales this week. And as I pointed out above the Move launch, and possibly the GT5 launch if it doesn't release simultaneously with Move. Also don't forget FF13 launches next week, or rather this week, in Asia. Although that would have more of an impact on HW than on SW since they're getting the Lightning bundle over there.

GT5 isn't launching until fall, if this year at all. Move could be a possibility, I could definitely see Sony rushing it out this summer to avoid being trampled by the Natal hype machine in October.

I wouldn't expect much from FFXIII's Asian launch either. PS3 software is going to be slaughtered by Wii for the week.

Some people are overestimating the supply issues. There are no supply issues in Europe and Japan. In the US, there might be one or two retailers having supply issues, but you can find a PS3 if you want to. Maybe add a 10% increase in the US, but that's it.

The Wii has plenty of options left and they will all sell hardware.

Zelda Wii
Wii Party
Vitality Sensor
Other M

You should never underestimate the Wii. Wii Party will probably sell 5-7 million copies and outsell RDR on PS3 2:1 (Somebody said RDR bacame a smash hit on PS3) Zelda might push awesome numbers as well. Super Mario Galaxy will sell shitloads.

The PS3 has one game that can play in the league the Wii is in and that is GT5. Other than that, no chance. So please stop saying the Wii runs out of system sellers.

I didn't say it's run out of system sellers, (Zelda Wii and Wii Relax, if handled right, could shift tons of Wiis) just that, to my knowledge there aren't any big ones coming up in the next 3 months or so.

I don't know.

My point was, without any for either, can the Wii remain over the PS3 even once shortages are fixed?

How would we know, since both are experiencing shortages?

That's like asking if, in the absence of guns, an olympic boxer will beat an olympic shooter in a fight. The Wii has evergreen titles which still push hardware in quiet times. The PS3 does not. The absence of system sellers for both consoles would imply that the Wii is going to increase its lead

This is not a fair comparison
