This was an incredibly horrible year for US Video Game Hardware:
Consoles 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012
Nintendo (All) 1.8m 6.5m 10.2m 9.6m 7.1m 4.5m 2.9m
Sony (All) 5.4m 6.5m 6.0m 6.1m 5.1m 4.8m 3.3m
Microsoft (All) 4.3m 4.6m 4.7m 4.8m 6.8m 7.2m 5.3m
Looks to me like the totals for 2012 were:
X360 - 5.3m
3DS - 3.7m (based on NIntendo's press release)
PS3 - 3.3m (assuming 700k in Dec)
Wii - 2.1m (based on Nintendo's press release)
DS - 1.8m (based on Nintendo's press release)
Vita + PSP - 1.5m ?
