Forums - Sales - PS3 software sales surpassed Nintendo DS

Now 3 Playstation systems in the Top 5:

I'm actually surprised for the 360.  How the heck did it managed to get so high?!



I blame this little devil.



According to Nintendo, DS stands at 942 Million units of software.

Way to ruin the fun.

 

Woah, that would actually mean DS is at third place!

For me, software sales represents more than hardware, the true success of a console. Sadly is very complicated to track correctly the numbers.

PS3 numbers are great because it doesn't fill with games packed in bundles massively like wii sports or kinect, and seeing how it's lasting more than the competition probably will end with more sales than Wii and X360.

Edit: And piracy for handhelds is obviously a reason why PSP and DS are not higher.



PS2 so beast.



IMPOSSIBLE, NO GAEMZ!!!

Do these 942 Million units contain DSi digital downloads and retail games still on the shelves?



PS3 is probably way higher now with digital and shipped.
