I expected the Wii to be ontop of PS3 this time but with a smaller marginal.
Now I need to see software numbers!

Biiiig gap between Wii > PS3.

Should stay this way for a while now.

Big gap? Sarcasm?

A big gap was when the Wii was outselling the PS3 by 2,3 or 4 to 1 (I think it got to even 5 to 1). Frankly none of the consoles are selling very well in Japan. But at least the Wii has a higher userbase and lots of room for a price cut so it's not as worrying as in PS3's case.

I predicted it to be within 500 consoles. Only a big gap for my prediction.

Slightly

What else does the PS3 have coming now in Japan?

Besides FF13 the PS3 will have:

Atelier Ronora, Trinity Universe, Last Rebellion, end of eternity and 2 ports TOV and ninja gaiden sigma 2. I know I am still missing some.

Cross Edge (X Edge), which should give a small boost.

Gran Turismo 5

Tekken 6 (remember, they don't have to be exclusive. Look at RE5)

Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 (at some point)

FF Versus XIII (this year?)

And in one week the Wii has just erased several of weeks of PS3 "domination".

But PS3 dominated the Wii for more weeks! That's dominating!
