ps3 still outselling 360 in uk even though 120GB ps3 is £50 (~$80) more expensive than elite. Impressive, although i do expect it to change soon

DS = godly. As usual.

Wii = Nice price cut boost. Except in Japan, it really should have done more there. And, of course, PS3 Slim week 1 > $200 Wii week one, so my prediction was correct

PS3- Steadying. PS3 > 360 WW this holiday, and it's looking like PS3 > Wii in Japan.

PSP- Not a bad boost for a PSP with fewer features and a higher price.

X360- ...

The PS3 is showing impressive performance in EU and Japan, but NA sales are looking pretty lacklustre. It's barely ahead of the 360 at this point.

YEs I have NO IDEA how PS3 sales went UP

even though JAPAN sales FELL by 12K!

I think it's anticipation of a great holiday and word spreading that the PS3 is no longer doomed.

ps3 is still doomed until it makes profit...sure, Sony has a lot of money, but they need to find a way to have profits from SCE...and with the price cut and a not so great software boost i'm not sure that "the brand is profitable" like Kaz said...

PlayStation brand is everything tied with PlayStation.

Games, PSP, PSP Go, PS2 etc.

When a console does well, the others are doomed.

Now, every console did well, therefore every other console is doomed.

Wii back to dominating the West. I don't think it will drop that much in NA actually ... the word on the price cut is still spreading.

360 hanging tough with the PS3 in North America.

PS3 doing great. U2 Boost next week. Hopefully push US sales to 90k and others to 120K. @Famous PS3 is more expensive than 360, and a Halo game just launched. Impressive PS3 US sales imo
