The Console Wars: 2007 Update [Sales]

January 19th, 2008 | Uncategorized

We don’t keep you updated with every Wii sold like our friends at Kotaku, but the NPD’s 2007 sales numbers have been released, so we thought that the occasion merited a rundown to fuel your fanboy flame wars. Here are the total consoles sold in the United States during 2007:
Nintendo DS – 8,500,000
Wii – 6,290,000
Xbox 360 – 4,620,000
PlayStation 2 – 3,970,000
PSP – 3,820,000
PlayStation 3 – 2,560,000
So what about the total cumulative US sales numbers to date? Those numbers paint a slightly different picture:
PlayStation 2 – 41,120,000
Nintendo DS – 17,650,000
PSP – 10,470,000
Xbox 360 – 9,150,000
Wii – 7,380,000
PlayStation 3 – 3,250,000
Our reaction: it’s so easy to underestimate the success of the PSP hardware (and it’s currently selling like hotcakes in Japan). [kotaku]
