After ioi's (minor) adjustment to past sales and this week's monster numbers, the Wii is less than 1m behind the 360 in America: 830k total. Reggie's ambitious prediction of passing that number in June is looking a lot more plausible.
The biggest thing that will slow or stop the Wii from moving towards 50% market share isn't even supply, it's sales of the 360 and PS3. If their combined sales level off at approximately 300k/week worldwide, the Wii will continue to gain market share. If they increase, it will be tough for the Wii to do much better than treading water, even with its great sales.
End of 2008 totals: Wii 42m, 360 24m, PS3 18.5m (made Jan. 4, 2008)
