And a Wii YOY comparison.

Wii Oct 08 - 803,000
Wii Oct 09 - 506,900
Wii Oct 10 - 232,000

Almost a 40% decline from 2008 to 2009 and almost 55% from 2009 to 2010. An extremely worrying trend to say the least.

Kinda explains why Nintendo have kept quiet on the numbers this Month.

They don't track bundled SW full stop, this even includes Halo and NSMB bundles.

Misleading. They do track SW bundled with accessories like Wii Fit and Wii Play. But I think there's some weird definition of bundling going on with the Move Starter pack. Sports Champions isn't actually counted with that.

Very nice to see the XBOX 360 number 1. as it deserves it for being the only console to play every game in 1080p, even if its upscaled, the ps3 plays alot of games in only up to 720p

Oh god. Not this again. Run!

Having a consistent upscaling across any TV is nice though.

Updated. So both HD consoles about 30k over, Wii about 50k over, and both handhelds just about right.
