This. Wii has cemented first place not only because it has such a lead over 360, but it also continues to outsell 360 by a LARGE margin nearly every single week over the course of its lifetime.
The 360's lead over PS3 is already large enough to declare it as second place IF (And I emphasize IF, because I'm not saying it will end up in 2nd the way things are now) it can continously outsell PS3 by a fair margin nearly every week over the course of a year or so.
If PS3 can manage to overcome 360's LTD sales, it will likely be so late in the gen, that only a 3 or 4 million lead would be needed plus the sustained gap in weekly sales to declare it second.
