Nintendo Ds - Image 1The Wii and the Nintendo DS once more dominate hardware charts in Japan, according to the numbers from Media Create, matching their reign of the region's software sales.

On the top spot for the week of December 3 to December 9 is still the Nintendo DS with 168,000 units sold, 40,000 more than the previous week.

The Wii has also done incredibly better than the previous week, where it only sold 74,500. The PlayStation 3 improved only a little as it sold only 37,000 last week.

The Xbox 360 still remains at last place and didn't improve much either, with only a 2,000 unit increase in sales from last week. Here are the figures:

  • Nintendo DS - 168,255
  • Wii - 115,057
  • PlayStation Portable - 91,481
  • PlayStation 3 - 38,123
  • Xbox 360 - 8,876

Dude, just because a game didn't sell a billion copies the first week it was released, doesn't mean that it's "not good". Wait till you have a chance to try it out.

but like i said, the user base of the wii is a bit inflated. most owners don't actually play games but instead bought it to play the cute mini games but if you think that 14 million units is an accurate number to base their sales on then you are dead wrong. devs look at the numbers and broken records and say "hot damn we can sell millions on that thing" then the game releases and the realize the sad fact that a scarce minority of wii owners play games. nintendo marketed to a casual consumer and did it well. everyone loves mario and the idea of virtual reality appeal to everyone. plots a story and "inventive" (because i have never seen a light saber game before...) game play are not things that grandma (the average wii owner) is looking for.
