Okay, here at last is this week's update from the original Wii to 10M / PS3 to 5M thread. I've put off doing it because VGC numbers for PS3 are quite a bit off of MC, Famitsu and Dengeki and I decided to wait at least until I had a day off from work (i.e. today) in case there was an adjustment. MC's numbers are closest (29,977) but this is still more than 5000 units above the VGC numbers.
Speaking of adjustments... In the Oct 10 update, I said that it was the first week that the Wii outsold PS3 since the start of the race. With adjustments, VGC now shows PS3 with a tiny lead (64 units!) that week. So this week is the first week that Wii has outsold PS3. For now anyway...
