Nintendo sold 2.04 million Wiis to U.S. consumers last month, outselling its nearest competitor, the Xbox 360, more than two-to-one. And as for the PS3, well let’s just say it wasn’t the best month of sales for Sony.

While the Wii more than doubled the sales of Microsoft’s console, the Xbox 360 did the same to the PS3, selling 836,000 units compared to the PS3 only selling 378,000 units. I guess LittleBigPlanet, Resistance 2 nor SOCOM: Confrontation really helped the PS3 boost its sales.

Hit the jump for the full list of November NPD numbers.

• Wii – 2,040,000
• Nintendo DS – 1,570,000
• Xbox 360 – 836,000
• PSP – 421,000
• PlayStation 3 – 378,000
• PlayStation 2 – 206,000

Total hardware sales amounted to $2.91 billion for the month, up 10% from November of 2007. Of course, the increase in Wii sales alone made $270 million, so the video game industry might just want to thank Nintendo for its continuing growth.
