Nintendo dominates US hardware sales
Nintendo has completely dominated its rivals in terms of US hardware sales in July, according to the latest data from NPD.

The Nintendo DS sold over 608,000 units throughout the month, while the Nintendo Wii sold 555,000 units.

Sony's PlayStation 3 was the third most popular console, selling 225,000 units, while the PlayStation Portable sold 222,000 units. That meant that the Xbox 360 has fallen to fifth place on the hardware chart selling 205,000 units - despite Microsoft cutting the price of the Xbox 360 and the console taking the most popular software title for the month with NCAA Football 2009.

Here are the US July 2008 hardware sales:

1. Nintendo DS: 608,000
2. Nintendo Wii: 555,000
3. PlayStation 3: 225,000
4. PlayStation Portable: 222,000
5. Xbox 360: 205,000
6. PlayStation 2: 155,000

People love the DS, thats well known.
The Wii is for anyone who wants to slowly get into video games.
The PS3 in a few years will sell more.
PSP... well I think it could be that everyone who wanted one, got one already.
I think everyone has the 360 by now, lol. The online payment still lets people down.
I'm kinda surpirsed the PS2 is still selling xD

Good article Blue.
