some more info

Total sales of console videogame software amounted to £1.45bn, with growth in 2 formats, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Sony’s PS3

vgc has total 09 data about the same as this yrs, up to the last week of Dec 09 was 944k for PS3 so its actually lower this yr which contradicts the article

In terms of revenue the hardware market was headed by Microsoft’s Xbox 360 generating £232m, closely followed by Sony’s PS3 with revenue of £229m

thats pretty close

In terms of revenue the software market paints a similar picture with Xbox 360 generating £538m and PS3 at No2 with £414m. In terms of units sold Xbox 360 is No1 with 18.2m and PS3 is No2 with 13.8m.

does that mean wii is in 3rd for SW idk since theres little wii data in the article maybe its just ps3vs360

Looks like Nintendo is losing badly in software market considering Wii DS PSP PC total 498m vs 538 for X360 alone.

Also I wonder if Kinect is included in Software number vs Move which probably partially went to others category.

Revenue isnt about profit/loss though, if nintendo is really selling that many games theirs should be much higher, although Wii games and PC games (and ds and psp) are cheaper then ps3 and 360 games. So it is possible...
