Wii and PS3 sales gap shrinking in Japan

The PS3 appears to be slowly shrinking the sales gap between itself and the Wii in Japan. During October the Wii sold 110,415 units and the PS3 came in with 47,183 -- a narrowing 2-to-1 margin. In September the PS3 closed to a 3-to-1 margin from its of 6-to-1 margin in June.

It appears that Sony's alterations to the PS3 are helping to sell more units. Meanwhile, the Xbox 360 just sits around with his hands in his pockets, kicking sand, selling 18,717 units in October, and asking why the Japanese don't like him.
