^Isn't Bayonetta very similar to the Devil may cry and God of War games, are those really hardware movers in japan?

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!!

Bayonetta (360) got a 40/40 from Famitsu, and has a woman as the main character, with a lot of advertising.

So im guessing it will do well.

It doesn't matter if Tekken 6 and Bayonetta don't move a lot of consoles, they only have to move 2,000 (give or take depending on changes in the Wii's sales). For two games that should debut over 100k, moving a couple thousand extra PS3s shouldn't be hard.

Actually more than 2k, they also have to compensate for any weekly dropoff

Okay then, a couple extra thousand consoles sold. Not hard stuff. Can you just admit that maybe the PS3 will outsell the Wii? Geez.

The PS3 is doing good, but the sales are starting to drop. Hopefully they'll stay static or rise next month.
