[/img]Rather like Nokia and its market share obsession, Nintendo just
can't seem to stop talking about its hardware sales lead. The
company's US chief, Reggie Fils-Aime, recently dished some NPD data
detailing the specific advantage that the Wii has over its competitors
in the US since the current console generation launched: Mario's team
has managed to sell 30.4 million units of its hardware, followed by
Microsoft's Xbox 360 at 21.9 million and Sony's PS3, which lags
somewhere far behind with 13.5 million total sales. On the more mobile
front, DS sales have ratcheted up to 43.1 million, more than doubling
the PSP's 17.7 million shipments to the US of A. Nothing we haven't
heard before, really, but it's always good to get a statistical update
for the sake of keeping flamewars as informed as possible.
