Xbox 360 outsells Wii and PS3
In the US, at least

Analysts at research firm NPD have released their findings on sales of games consoles in the US, and the numbers show that the Xbox 360 outsold both the Wii and the PS3

Although the Xbox 360 has been around a lot longer than the Wii and the PS3, Microsoft is presumably able to keep production up to demand, whereas the difficulty in customers getting their hands on a Wii and especially a PS3 has been well documented.

OOPS I MEAN PAL

Gee i wonder why, could it be due to gears of war and the upcoming halo 3, oh and the re-calls on the wii's wand wrist bands. Then the price of the ps3

[ironchef]

Theres no difficulty getting a ps3 now. I was at fry's today, and they had atleast 20 60gig ps3s in stock and on display.

[eViLMunkey]

The problem is the price. . Not availabily on the ps3

[Vteckidd]

yeah ultimeately i didnt want to spend $600 on a PS3, then have to buy a game that i really wasnt interested in.

When some REAL titles come out, ill pick one up, like Metal Gear Solid 4

Wii FTW


stop being lazy and sitting on your ass playing a 360 or PS3
instead do something productive

and buy that fatass kid down the street a Wii

yes, its true, if you read the fine print on the bottom of the box of the Wii, its actually endorsed by Chuck Norris... they are trying to trick fat kids into becoming skinny

Solid numbers considered, the XBOX360 did outsell both systems simply due to the readily available units.

However, when taking into account the limited availability of the Wii and PS3, the Nintendo Wii was the most popular selling system of the Holiday and thus, relatively, did better than the 360 and the PS3.

are the Wii's still hard to come by? thinkin about pickin one up soon, stoned bowling is awesome LOL

[Sibious]

[TeeJay]

[thinkfast®]

this is insane!

sooo, anybody know where to get one

[Ran]

They said the next shipment was in January. No telling when in January though.

[Hulud]

the wii's are gonna be harder to get now than the ps3 i think

because xmas is over and the wii is only 250 and its so much more fun to play

ps3 has no games worth spending $600 for

[soplocar]

just wait untill metal gear 4 comes out along with GT5, and well see what sells more. as far as the wii, ummm al i got to say is that nintendo only come out with games for little kids... thats why i traded my 64 for a ps1 back in 97'.

[bigdare23]

just wait untill metal gear 4 comes out along with GT5, and well see what sells more.

And? Just wait till halo 3 comes out!

Halo3 > PS3

Meh, Halo 2 sucked compared to the original so I keep my hopes minimal at best. Here's hoping for good online play though.

Did you download the trailer on xbox live? if the game looks anything like the trailer, its going to tight as hell (or atleast look tight).

I've seen the official trailor and a "making of" trailor. The graphics look great, but I want to see what they really add in terms of new weapons, maps, and enhanced gameplay. If all they do is beef up the graphics, then I'm going to be disappointed.

UMMMM, does resident evil ring a bell?? metal gear solid?? madden? call of duty?? and mario and sonic may be considered kids games by some, but they are fun as shit. get outta here man

[StupidBikerBoy]

The problem is the price. . Not availabily on the ps3

Where you in a hole from november to christmas? Not availability? The numbers were from november to christmas, so yes it was availability as the article plainly stated.

Did anyone expect any less? There were an ubundance of 360's, of course they sold more. How many people went looking for a PS3 or a Wii, but settled for a 360 because the other 2 were sold out? I know of 4 of the top of my head. That was part of their selling stragedy from the beginning. A good one too.

Wait until the playing field is even as far as availability of consoles AND games. Either the Wii or the PS3 will be on top, the 360 is old news.

ok old school games were cool, we are talking about 15 years ago, but all the games that you listed are in all the systems, what i mean is that nintendo has not came out with a game that makes me say that i want to get a wii because is not in the other systems.
for sony we have the metal gear series and the GT series, and for microsoft we have halo, but what do we have for nintendo???? another mario game???? mario kart probably???

[DemonEyez]

whoaaaaa dont diss mario kart... the original is awesome!

and yep to the guy saying people settled for the 360.. saw it happen alot at work.

Altho to be honest i think the most in demand system this holiday season was probably the DS Lite.

I would not go out that far and say 360 is old news.
