I'll be busy for much of Thursday afternoon, so I'm making this earlier than usual.

This data includes five weeks (ending April 2, 2011) and includes about a week of 3DS sales, and as always is for the USA market only. Preview is here http://www.vgchartz.com/article/85553/usa-retail-sales-preview-for-march-2011/

We have the USA market growing on strong hw sales for the month, but sw is down against the amazing titles released in March 2010 (Final Fantasy XIII, God of War III, and so on).

PSP had a price cut on the first day of this five week period, so weekly PSP sales likely jumped back over 20k / week.

People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.

When there are more laws, there are more criminals.

This thread seems awfully quiet...

I reckon:

3DS: 590k

360: 425k

Wii: 400k

PS3:340k

PSP:110k

Dunno about the PS2 (and why is the number for PS2 last month red?)

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Dragon Age 2: Origins? lol

Also, there seems to be 2 xbox 360 versions of DA2 rather than 1 xbox 360 and 1 ps3.

Someone doesn't proof read their work.

Oh. That would explain it then...

I don't like the new NPD though. Why do numbers have to be so...restricted? They aren't for other entertainment outlets...

Ah well. I'll wait another week until the companies release their figures for WW. That'll be interesting...
