Ps3 up YOY for the 4th year running :) good job! Will be interesting to see if it can do it for the 5th year..
It's great to see the 360 and PS3 doing so good.
360 needs 300k more than PS3 in one week to outsell it and become the best selling home console of the year... this looks interesting!
Kind of sad to see the Wii to keep going down :/ But, the Wii U is coming out. People are just going to keep waiting for that. It's also nice to see the PS3 getting some well deserved recognition sales wise!
That's not why the Wii has decreased.
Actually, the reason the Wii has decreased is that it has had about 5 worthwhile games this past year. But The Wii U should make up for it.
I never necessarily said it's just because of that. I know their has been a drought of good games for it.
Wow... nice YOY by MS
Happy new year xbox 360,may your 2012 be bigger than 2011......you can do it.
