PS3 outsold the 360 in NA as I predicted.


Wow @ Wii definitely going to be one of the best selling standard definition consoles of all time.

December was a massive success for all companies in 2009. Nintendo managed to move tons of hardware and software, while Sony and Microsoft had a very successful end of the year bang with hardware sales. New Super Mario Bros. Wii was the biggest selling title on Wii in December, with sales likely to stay strong well into 2010.

Wii:3.81M,
PS3, 1.36M
Xbox 360 1.31M

Ps3 BEATS 360 OMGGGGGGG!

Not really.

1.36 vs 1.31 is a statistical tie.

I really wouldn't call it beating it based on how NPD numbers are calculated.

Words do not do justice to Nintendo's numbers today...



Soundwave on 14 January 2010

Previous record for most consoles sold in a month was 2.7 million for the PS2 in December 2002.

Wii just destroyed that by more than a 1 million. Holy crap. 3.3 million for the DS as well, lol.

NSMB outsells both versions of MW2 combined for December.

3.81

That

That is really high

Also is the NSMBWii set not in keeping with Nintendo's released numbers? Hm

360 is bang on but the wii and ps3 need adjusting and damn at modern warfare 2 for ps3! the ps3 version has probably been outselling the 360 version for a while worldwide and what ca i say about the wii? wello i can tell you that i have one thats aint been touched in a while but i can also tell you that its a SALES BEAST! the wii is breaking records and it will beat the ps2 overall easily!

Xbox 360 = PS3 (come on, not even NPD can be THAT accurate. 50k difference is the margin of error. But the crazy thing is the Wii.

Wii = (Xbox 360 + PS3) * 2 SICK.

Nintendo hardware = the whole industry (PS2, PS3, PSP, Xbox 360) * 2. Insane. I never thought Nintendo would make a comeback like this 5 years ago.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
