Assuming you mean in comparsion to the 360; I bet if you deduct the 360 that were 'bought' via the free 360 with PC's for college, PS3 would be on top as far as home consoles go.



Pixel Art can be fun.

On another note, never noticed how close DS LTD is to PS2 LTD.

Just out of curiosity, is NPD going to cover July 31st to August 27th or September 3rd? Last year August was a 4 week month.

PS3 is up again in its 2nd week of price cut, biggest growth of this week. XB360, Wii and PSP a little bit up, 3DS and DS down. But XB360 is still the best seller home console and growing, while 3DS is still the first portable, but dropping. 3DS has a smaller than usual drop after the initial spike for a price cut, but it's quite normal, as the slow season is ending, so the normal late Summer - early Autumn rise is compensating that drop. DS needs an official consistent price drop to survive by 3DS side with the latter's lower price.

PS: Nice start for Deus Ex: HR.
