This is what I like to see.

I hope WSR gets 300K fisrt week, the more WM+ out there more support,

Okay for Wii Sports, but the first day (and first week, for that matter) won't give us any clue as to where the game will end up.

Wii Sports 1 & Wii Play did 176k week one in Japan by Famitsu so this is a good opening.

Wii Music did 50k day one.

Wii Fit did ~260k week one

Galaxy did ~130k day one.

Great Wii SR sales (oddly low sellthrough though - I suppose it's early days yet).

but my word, a ton of Sony platform releases doing ok too, and some good 360 numbers in the mix.

This isn't a normal release week, is it? My memory could be failing but I cant remember so many titles released at once in a long time

Good numbers for WSR. But lol at retailers, were they really that scared about WSR performance that they ordered less than 400k units? Even a brainless monkey with amnesia knows WSR is going to be a million seller. Sigh... (Although maybe it's Nintendo's fault for not having enough software ready and that would be terrible and atrocious and an insult)

And look at BlazBlue for the 360, look like a lot of Arcade players are buying 360's.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Should fall below even your modest prediction though, shouldn't it?
