Xbox 360 shaved the US market over Christmas

"Market analysts NPD have suggested that the Xbox 360 was the best-selling console in the US over Christmas -- with the Nintendo Wii trailing by just 200,000 units," reports GamesIndustry.biz.

The preliminary estimates are that around 2 million Xbox 360s were sold in North America in the month up to Christmas, 1.8 million Nintendo Wiis and 750,000 Sony PlayStation 3s. Of course, the Wii and PS3 would have sold more if they hadn't been in such short supply, but the "moral victory" probably goes to the Wii.
