I hate to stir up trouble, but is the week ending January 3 considered part of 2008 instead of 2009? Because if you include that week's sales as part of this year, then PS3 still has a ways to go before catching up:
Wii: 1,143,537
PS3: 1,071,780
These numbers are through Oct 24 and have the PS3 trailing by 71,757.
