Nintendo Wii 274k
PlayStation 3 269k
PlayStation 2 264k
Nintendo DS 251k
PlayStation Portable 230k
Xbox 360 230k
1. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (Activision, Xbox 360) 330.9k
2. Wii Play (Nintendo, Wii) 298.1k
3. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Activision, Wii) 239.6k
4. Rock Band (Electronic Arts, Xbox 360) 183.8k
5. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Activision, Xbox 360) 182.7k
6. Super Mario Galaxy (Nintendo, Wii) 172k
7. Burnout Paradise (Electronic Arts, Xbox 360) 144.1k
8. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (Activision, PS3) 140k
9. Mario Party (Nintendo, DS) 138.5k
10. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (Sega, DS) 133k
A turnaround for Sony? Not quite. It’ll take another price drop or two before they regain their kingdom. While Nintendo and Microsoft struggle with supply, Sony’s competent and long established supply chain allowed them to come within spitting distance of the Wii with their PS3 (finishing ahead of Xbox 360 for the first time), and the PSP wasn’t too far off the DS. Year over year, PS3 was the only one that was up (243k to 269k), while both Wii (435k to 274k) and Xbox 360 (294k to 230k) saw sharp declines. Not to be overlooked is the PS2, the 8 year old system that just keeps going.
On the software side, Activision continues its dominance, with strong performance out of Call of Duty 4 and Guitar Hero III. Rock Band joins the music game fest. Nintendo’s got typically strong first party performance as well.
