Last I heard there wasn't really a shortage of Wii's in Europe.
Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

chuck norris will win
Not trying to be a fanboy. Of course, it's hard when you own the best console eve... dang it

I'm going to go with PS3 as well, GT5P is going to be a massive game in Euro. With PS3 bundle, it will move a lot of consoles
Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

There is no supply problem in japan, why do you think the wii has been around 50k for so long?

PS3 might win it barely, but only because of supply constraints. It will be close though, within 10k for sure.
the wii will win, but the ps3 will have a nice week. i predict 110k in others.

The Wii is not really supply constrained in Europe right now... After MK launches it may be another story of course.

Dude this came straight from the UK like 3 days ago.

"Though PS3 is still outselling 360 regularly week-on-week and in terms of year-to-date sales, the Sony and Microsoft platforms both saw a 73 and 78 per cent rise in hardware sales respectively this week.
Nintendo’s mega-selling Wii and DS also saw significant rises, despite stock concerns. "
It seems that the trackers OFTEN mention the supply constraints of the Wii in the EU regions, but people actively ignore them and instead opt to cling to anecdotals instead.
It seems like people should be able to recognize that Wiiplay is tied closely to hardware sales, and when it jumped up the charts over 40+ spots last week that there MIGHT be a supply issue. And if that didnt do it, the direct QUOTES from Chart Track should do it.
Sometime back, before Christmas Wii supply had evened itself out in the EU regions, then people acknowledged it, but after the holidays it fell right back into its supply constrained ways, and seemingly people are just sticking with what was. Wii is supply constrained in the US the same way it is over in the large EU regions. Can you find one with some work? Sure. But its still far to constrained to call it "comfortably in stock."

Emm, No.... You can find one in London with NO work whatsoever.... What you get in Europe in terms of numbers sold in the last month is what demand actually is NOT supply.... (believe me I live here)
PSN ID: T_Gears
End of 2009 ltd sales:
Wii = 67-68m
X360 = 38-39m
PS3 = 34-35m
Prediction: The PS3 will surpass the 360 on weekly sales after it drops to $299 on all regular weeks (no big releases).
