So yeah, I think 280-300k seems like a logical bet.
However Ill go for 310k.

170k for 1 week.
I'm confused as well. Is 1 week = 2 days or until next friday? If it's until next friday I say 250k.

1st week = 2 days
"That's how every launch is in Japan. PS4 launches on the 22nd in Japan, but today in the west it's still the 21st. PS3 released on the 11th in Japan but that shows up as the 10th for us. PS3 first two day/first week sales are for the week ending the 11th. 130k is what it sold in its first 9 days on release.
PS3, 3DS, Vita, Wii U, and now PS4 all have their first two days counted as their first week since they all "effectively" launched on Fridays. The time change makes it a little confusing."

That's what I thought as well. I'm sticking to 170k then.

PS3 did 87k its first two days,
360: 55k
Wii: 363k
3DS: 374k
Vita: 322k
Wii U: 306k
170k sounds good to me as well, but I just can't believe it'd do worse than Wii U.
Did PS3 have supply constraints? Can't remember back that far but I don't think it did for it's Japanese launch. Never knew the actual figures, so low.

Not really so far I remember.

Actually, they did have some supply issues at launch

Sony was also supposed to launch PS3 5-6 months earlier then it did as it was initially suppose to launch in spring 2006 but due to a shortage in the blue diode laser production (Blu-ray) it was pushed back to Nov and still had supply issues.

Oooo, let's play!
Methinks 310k, not sure how much weight to give that info about a 350k shipment. It will pretty much sell out though I think
