3DS fighting with PS3 this week for first. So global Hardware only...no software yet? I want to see if the 360 versions of games really out sell the PS3 versions, even though on a weekly basis the PS3 outsells the 360./

The only SW up are in the 3rd post; the UK and the USA.

And the 3DS is 20k clear of the PS3, so they're hardly fighting for 1st. More likely, the PS3 is fighting to stay above 100k...

How's that for logic?

PS3 is 22k clear of 100k

The PS3 has no real heavy-hitters coming, and most consoles fall a fair whack from this time through to September. Even if it loses 1-2k a week, which it may well do on average, that'd leave it at 95k before October, and sales pick back up.

The 3DS, however, has a new version (which always helps), and a brand new 2D Mario game. You can expect sales to double for the 3DS that week. So whilst the PS3 may be hovering around the 100-110k mark, the 3DS will likely stabilise around the 200-300k mark...

 

At the moment, they are pretty close. That is true. But I doubt the 3DS will be overtaken any week, bar maybe the week before the XL's launch. Afterwards, the gap will be big enough between them to fit a Wii, a Vita, and maybe even a 360 between them.
