    360 Snatches First, Wii Close Behind

    It looks like Halo may have ignited the Xbox 360 sales turbo button, helping the console to outpace the Wii by a narrow 5 percent or so margin.

    Not many more surprises here though you'd have to combine PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 sales to beat out the Xbox 360. Maybe today's price drop will help.

    Sept. Hardware Sales
    Xbox 360: 527,800
    Wii: 501,000
    Nintendo DS: 495,800
    PlayStation Portable: 284,500
    PlayStation 2: 215,000
    PlayStation 3: 119,400
    Game Boy Advance: 75,000
