What do you think will happen this January?

Looks to me that January looks a lot like October. Only change I see this year is that Kinect is on the market and believe there will be a good deal of leftover demand in January. So Xbox numbers could be a good deal higher than last year. Wii and PS3 will fall back to October 2010 pattern.

Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

LBP2 boost for PS3 one week...Mass effect PS3 will not lead to boost so I agree with your prediction except for one week. 360 will be higher than 2010 for sure and Wii..well should be same or lower

Only one I see marginally improving is 360 thanks to the Americas boost, the PS3/Wii should stay relatively the same except for the major software releases weeks, yet again I find myself doubting that LBP2 will give PS3 a substantional HW boost.. After an amazing holiday season the sales will most likely return to the depressing pattern witnessed last year.

Imo, PS3 could be a bit down YoY in Americas!
