According to the chart at Sony defense force, the playstation (family) beat the Wii, DS and 360 for October:

We'll have to see if it can continue its monstrous win streak for November as well just as soon as the NPD numbers come out to confirm what VGChartz has us believe. Oh, and for November the DS doesn't count because it is somehow different from the other video game machines in such a way that it is disqualified from counting as a video game machine.
[edit] We should make a Microsoft defense force that counts all Windows PCs as part of the "Microsoft family" and then add all of the sales of Windows licenses to the total in the Microsoft family. The Sony/Nintendo numbers would be tiny slivers proving once and for all that games-for-Windows and the 360 are dominant.
