That's a pretty good 'what if'.
Suspending disbelief again and presuming a miraculous Nazi/Soviet peace treaty in '44 I'd have thought whatever happened to the shape of the European war that the A bomb would (again?) be the ultimate arbiter of the future shape of Europe. I could easily imagine Berlin (or perhaps more likely a 'secondary' city) being shifted up the target list ahead of Japan if the resultant freeing up of German troops made the ground campaign drag on.
Cheers,
Adam
