i saw various forms of this, and it is misleading... but not in the way you stated.
the gap between how many consoles sold each month has narrowed, narrowing is a process, not refering to single value... if Wii outsold ps3 by 300k one month, then 250k the next, then 200k the next, then the gap between how many more Wiis are sold than ps3s has narrowed.

What is misleading is the way the title is phrased: "gap between consoles narrowing" makes it sound like the ps3 sold more in the month than Wii, and is closing the LTD sales gap, which is very untrue.
also the articles seemed to focus more on the ratios than the numbers, which make it seem worse than it is. 'Wii was 6:1 to ps3 but now it's just 3:1' ...makes it look like Wii sales have halved, which although they have dropped a lot in Jp, they haven't halved, and WW sales are still as high as ever, [according to this site] something not mentioned at all.

most articles like this are misleading though, they just want a story.... 'Wii still sold out...still selling the same' is old news.
