DS - 8.8m (VGC = 9054K)
Wii - 4.9m (5169K)
PSP - 3.2m (3124K)
360 - 3.2m (3245K)
PS3 - 1.9m (1874K)

YTD

DS - 3.4m
Wii - 2.9m
360 - 1.4m
PS3 - 1.0m

Looks like VGChartz is a tad high on DS & Wii. PsP/X360/Ps3 are pretty dead on.

After France, it's a good to news to obtain these numbers for UK. I hope some others country in Europe will follow, as Germany, Italy (sure), and Spain....
Can we keep this thread when new numbers from UK will be known.

so xbox 360 vs PS3

In the time frame between Sept 07 to Sept 08 both consoles sold around 1 mil.
In the time frame between Jan 08 to Jan 09 the 360 sold 1.4 mil, the PS3 1 mil.

xbox 360 price cut have a positive impact.

hopefully the trends continues

I can make it sound even better.

Sept 2008 PS3 1.4M 360 2.3M

Jan 2009 PS3 1.9M 360 3.2M

Sept 08 - Jan 09, 360 sold 900k, PS3 500k

Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

400k is a good difference for a country the size of the U.K. These numbers also show just how much bigger the U.K console market is compared to France, Germany e.t.c
