Well folks, the sales numbers for January are in and they are rather surprising. Here they are:
THE NPD GROUP's JANUARY 2008 US GAME INDUSTRY SALES
Hardware Sales (in units sold)
Wii: 274,000
PlayStation 3: 269,000
Nintendo DS: 251,000
PlayStation Portable: 230,000
Xbox 360: 230,000
Not only is it a surprise to see Xbox 360 at the bottom of the list even after PSP, but PS3 ALMOST OUTSOLD THE WII! This obviously having something to do with the blu-ray disc's recent success having outsold HD DVD 82% to 18%. These numbers also show through the recent success of the PS3 version of Devil May Cry 4 outselling the Xbox 360 version. I've even noticed myself that I've started buying more PS3 games than any other system. I think it's safe to say that the PS3 is finally coming along.
