WOW @ XBAWX AND PS3 SALES!
This gen is gonna really last long, its unprecedented for these systems to have such amazing months in their 5th/4th year!
And potentially PS3 was on top for Feb now worldwide.
Too bad EMEAA sales will take a nosedive from next week for PS3, we must kill LG!

I'm wondering how that 8.9 Earthquake ( Tsunamis) in Japan will effect Sony and Nintendo's console being manufactured or shipped overseas. It's not that big of a deal of Microsoft Xbox360 doesn't make it to Japan on a weekly basis, but Wii's and PS3 coming out of Japan to western U.S. and Europe may be a bigger impact.

All consoles are made in China, (to my limited knowledge)

Nothing is manufactured or shipped out of Japan? I find that hard to believe. Sony & Nintendo's HQ aren't in Japan either?

I think most of the time it's a much cheaper alternative to base the factories in developing countries like China/India etc, a lot cheaper. In countries like Japan for Sony/Ninty and America for MS prices would be insane taking into account employee rights and all, headquarters are mainly in the countries of origin though, with regional HQ for each appropriate region(America, Europe, Asia) etc.
