it looks pretty bleak for Sony at the moment. Considering in Japan is Nintendo Fanboy heaven I can't see how releasing the PS3 over there in Novemeber will produce much sales. They will lose out on sales in the PAL regions for definite. I think Nintendo will win this battle but inevitably Mircosoft will win the war.
I don't even think Nintendo will win this battle. Their worldwide sales of the Gamecube were miserly in comparison to even the XBox which was then miserly in comparison to the all-conquering PS2.

I can see with Sony having major problems with the PS3 (price and release date being the main ones) and Nintendo with their Wii being the usual 'also-rans', Microsoft will win this battle and the war.
