I want to say 200k for Bioshock. It deserves at least that much. I hope for more than 300 though.

MP3 ... I want to say ... the same as Bioshock.

Are they both released on the same day?

I'd give Bioshock the higher numbers over all, but if we're just comparing the 360 version, I think Metroid might just edge it out.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

Yeah, I think MP3 has the franchise power to give it an incredible first week, while Bioshock will have fantastic sales, they won't be quite as front end heavy.

Console battle, excluding the PC, metroid prime 3 should beat out bioshock, but not by alot

BioShock: 250,000
Metroid Prime 3: 450,000

Metroid has a much more wider appeal and the franchise power to do it... and let's accept it, almost every Wii owner out there will get this game.

Bioshock - 275k
Metroid Prime 3 - 255k

I think MP3 is being overshadowed by everything else the Wii. I have yet to see advertising of it.
