September 2007 NPD sales numbers
For the first time since the launch of Wii, Microsoft Xbox 360 comes on top of every other consoles. It’s probably thanks to Halo 3, but Wii managed a respectable number. PS3 is perenially in the third place: we’ll see if the new SKUs and cheaper model will help its fortunes.
Hardware
- Microsoft Xbox 360: 527k
- Nintendo Wii: 501k
- Nintendo DS: 495k
- PSP: 284k
- PS2: 215k
- PS3: 119k
- GBA: 75k
Software-wise, the biggest surprise isn’t that Halo 3 sold more copies than any other game in the month, but the fact that it sold 3.3 million copies is staggering. That is more than twice the number of the other 9 titles in the list combined!
