I think that, as long as Nintendo release Zelda this year (100% chance), localise some Japanese only games (70% chance), cut the price (80% chance), release some awesome new games (95% chance) and advertise the hell out of the console (80% chance), it's likely te Wii will be first going into Christmas WW, and end up a few million ahead of the other two consoles. If not, then I reckon the Wii will still finish first, but it will be far closer, say, only by a million...

 

I want to make a bet with you. I think I will lose, but I want to bet that the ps3 will outsell the wii this year. I am 99% sure I will lose, but I want to make the bet anyways. Will you accept my bet?

Go for it! 

If the PS3 outsells the Wii by January 1st 2012 then you win, if not, I win (other consoles notwithstanding of course)

Winner gets avatar control for 3 weeks, and of course bragging rights to their friends

Let's make it interesting, how about Avatar control for 10 years. The ps3 has to have sold more units than the wii for this year, not overall. You get to brag to any of your friends when I lose except for Rainbird. Also, you have to tell me what Avatar control is exactly, because I have no idea how it works.

Avatar control is me changing the photo above your name

And no, 3 weeks max. I've never lost a bet but I have 3 on the go ATM. I don't wanna lose them all and get rid of my doggy!

This looks like an intresting bet I'm with Ps3 who else?

Are you willing to endure 10 years of Avatar control(whatever that is)?

Yeah what is Avatar control?

Read above info

And if you wish to join then it's the same thing as with Homer. It's preferable if you go for the 360 instead, but...

It will probably come down to Christmas time, 360 had a huge holiday rush at the end of 2010, I think whoever has the most appealing games/deals/bundles in November and December will edge out the other 2.  Could also come down to whoever has the games that appeal to casual gamers the most, i.e.- the motion control games, we'll see if Kinect or Move have any games that will sell big coming out at that time.

USA: Xbox 360

Japan: PlayStation 3

Earth: Wii

So you ignore EMEAA yet again as you know 3DS will win that.

Consider your Anti-3DS bias exposed!

OT:

I don't comment on rumor or speculation buut I think its gonna be too close to make an accurate prediction.

This seems kinda pointless.  All three consoles are likely to recieve price cuts in some form by year's end, and it'll ultimately boil down to when and by how much each manufacturer cuts price.

10 years or it is a no go(8 years if you are nice).

Nope!

...

Fine. 4 weeks max. That's a healthy compromise no? 

If the Wii is the best selling console from January 1st 2011-January 1st 2012, then I win. If it's the PS3, you win. If it's the 360, no-one wins

1 year sig control. Keep it clean though

4 weeks avatar and 1 year sig. That's my final offer
