Wii has 11 1M + sellers for 2008. X360 has 8 1M + sellers, and Ps3 has 5 1M+ sellers.

 

1 of the Ps3 titles launched before 2008, and 4 of them were released in 08.

4 of the X360 titles were launched before 2008, 4 of them were released in 08.

9 of the Wii titles, 2 of them were released in 08.

 

The Wii 1M+ titles saw total sales of 39.8M. If you take out Wii Sports (which is moronic like hell to take out), 31.1M

The X360 saw 15.2M

The Ps3 saw 11.1M

Ps360 saw 26.3M, so Wii has actually outsold Ps360 software wise for 2008.

 

Okay, new info. Nutboy has added some info on what the 2007 sales are (here: http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=35619), and I thought I'd add some info here too.

For the full 2008 these were the software sales of the consoles (1.5M + only sellers).

Wii: 41.6M, without Wii Sports 27.6M. With Wii Sports, it has sold almost as much, without, it has sold more than 15% more already! It is likely to have sold close to 225% more with Wii Sports, and close to 250% without it!

X360: Has sold 55% of what it sold in 2007 already. Is likely to sell about 130% or more this year.

Ps3: Has already sold more than 20% more than it did in 2007! Could sell close to 300% more this year.
