Nintendo sales up

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

In Japan the selling record was not so good for Nintendo because the PlayStation 3 solidly outsold the Nintendo Wii and also the PlayStation Portable overtook the Nintendo DS. But yes, the current situation for the Nintendo has been reversed. The Wii and DS is now becoming the best selling products in their categories.

The Nintendo DSi has been sold about 55,000 units in Japan from 27 April to 10 May and it was even the best selling videogame console.

There the PlayStation Portable was the 2nd with a sale unit of more than 43,000 units moved to gamers in the same period. The lead of Nintendo is even bigger because the Nintendo DS Lite has also moved some 7,821 units in the same period.

Sad story for the Wii and the PlayStation 3. They are no longer head to head. The Nintendo home console is up 24,397 units and the PlayStation 3 is only at 18,483. Xbox 360 has suffered the shame.
