New Media Create hardware numbers are in and it's nothing but good news! Even the Xbox 360 is up a whopping 18 additional units from the previous week. I'll wait for your mind to stop reeling before I continue.
You okay? Good. Now, while Nintendo DS sales were up, as were Wii numbers for the week of May 21st through the 27th, there was a slight surge all around. Despite little in the way of marquee PlayStation 2 titles, or even a single PLAYSTATION 3 game release, both consoles were up. PS3 can see five-digit weekly sales not too far in the distance!
There is some bad news, though. Look.
- Nintendo DS Lite - 127,461
- Wii - 58,644
- PSP - 26,097
- PlayStation 2 - 11,311
- PLAYSTATION 3 - 9,627
- Xbox 360 - 2,044
- Game Boy micro - 407
- Game Boy Advance SP - 288
Yeah, it was a killer week for Game Boy Advance sales. With some bigger Wii and DS releases coming, I expect we'll see a jump in both. That is unless folks start holding out for those new metallic paint jobs.
