I agree with Neos. There is no way the Wii outsold the 360 and PS3 by 5 to 1. There must be some mix-up.

Minutes prior to NPD Group's release of monthly U.S. game sales data, Microsoft has revealed it has sold 188,000 Xbox 360s sold in April; GTA IV on 360 tops software charts.
ImageMicrosoft said that U.S. Xbox 360 sales now total 10.1 million, with 19 million sold worldwide. The console launched in November 2005.

Sony PlayStation 3 figures have yet to be revealed, but a press statement from Microsoft said that Xbox 360 "continues to outsell PS3."

Ouch, those are pretty shit sales.

 Doomed how? The Wii is selling at an amazing pace showing the "next-gen" consoles can sell quite well.

 Kinda wonder what they mean by "continues" to outself PS3... since when?

 

I'm waiting before the OFFICIAL number before commenting.  People needs to chill for a second here.
