The Mantan Web columnist, Taketo Matsuo, an employee of Japan's Tsutaya media retailer, expects the game to top the million mark this week.
While not providing specific numbers, Matsuo also revealed a second place finish for the PS3 version of Devil May Cry 4.
The rest of the top ten had Tales of Destiny Director's Cut (Limited Edition) in third, followed by Disgaea 3 (PS3), Winning Eleven 2008 (PSP), Assassin's Creed (SP3), Wii Fit (Wii), Haruhi Suzumiya no Dowaku (PS2), Devil May Cry 4 (Xbox 360), and Tales of Destiny Director's Cut (Standard Edition).
Full sales numbers should be released later this week.

Wow... just wow...
I fully expect brawl to surpass melee's sales, I don't know a single person with a wii who doesn't plan to buy brawl.

Brawl will break 1 million in Japan very soon. Shipments will be a factor. Brawl should sell 8 million copies by the end of 2008. If they sell more than 10 million they'd break past WoW.
