[ Los Angeles | Reuters News Service, 11 December 2006 ]- Nintendo sold 476 000 units of its new Wii video game console in the US in November, more than twice the number of PlayStation 3s sold by rival Sony, as the two consoles debuted mid-month, research group NPD said on Friday.

Sony's PS3 sales came in at 197 000.

Microsoft sold 511 000 units of its Xbox 360 in November, according to NPD.

That console, released just over a year ago, is locked in a three-way battle with the PlayStation 3 and Wii, which were released in mid-November amid speculation over whether Sony can maintain its dominance over the global console market after selling more than 106 million PlayStation 2 units globally.
