Same week in 2009 (week ending Jan 11 2009)

Wii - 42,843
PS3 - 29,240
DS - 107,251
PSP - 66,489
360 - 9,444

Wii up (close to 50%), PS3 up (more than 50%), DS flat (slightly lower), PSP way up (Thanks KH) and 360 down. Pretty healthy sales compared to last year.

i was noticing the huge YoY for wii/ps3 too.  is there a good reason for that or is it just because this week is one day closer to the holiday compared to last year.  I was expecting a much larger drop for both systems i guess..

Wish I knew! It looks like they are flying high (when comparing to last year) on momentum (I don't buy the one day difference compared to last year explaining such big differences).

PS3 had a great end of year with the Slim launch, price cut, and FFXIII in December. Wii alos had price cut and of course NSMBW is just selling like crazy.

Now sales will be sad () compared to the holdiays but that doens't mean they won't be interesting as it seems that PS3 and Wii will be close for sometime. PS3 fighting with new games laucnhing regularly and Wii with its infamous "evergreen" titles. Will be good to watch!

DON'T BE SAD

Now the big games are coming out, our consoles will deliver us gaming goodness!

BE HAPPY LIKE THE DUDE BELOW
