I just ran some figures, and based on hardware sales revenue, and the fact that PSP was up over May 2011 on its price cut we can conclude figures were something like this:

X360 - 270,000

Wii - 236,000

DS - 180,000 (roughly - plus or minus 20,000)

PS3 - 177,000

3DS - 97,000

PSP - 80,000 (roughly - but known to be over 59,000 and likely under 90,000)

PS2 - 20,000 (could be less, probably not under 10,000, less than 1% of hw revenue regardless so it doesnt matter)

I checked on PS2 and also realized that after passing 35m, it only topped 200,000 units per month in 10 non-holiday months. Wii is at 35.67m, and since reaching 35m, has already topped 200,000 / month twice. The USA market is larger than in the PS2 era, but PS2 never topped 200,000 in a non-holiday month after March 2008, when its base reached 41.7m.

Wii should be back to 350k - 450k in June (five weeks) which is pretty solid.


You may be right there, 300K at least for Wii in June,  where did you get 35.67M are you just multiplying americas numbers by 0.87?  good analysis overall.
