September 07 NPD: Hardware Sales
You knew it was going to happen. The launch of Halo 3 completely eclipsed everything else in the month of September, and the dramatic jump in the Xbox 360's sales proves that much. Toppling the Nintendo Wii considerably, the Xbox 360 went on to sell 528k systems! The Wii follows with an equally amazing 501k, trailed behind the Nintendo DS with 496k. Sony's PlayStation 2 continues to sell fairly well with 215k, but it's the PSP that moves a fairly impressive amount of units, claiming 284.5k sold, thanks to the introduction of the PSP Slim.
See Full ImageThe PlayStation 3 saw no fires in September, with its sole 1first party game (Heavenly Sword) not being received very well, and with rumors of an incoming price-drop putting a halt to sales. We hope to see much better results for the console for October, as Sony has announced the $100 price-drop of the 80GB PS3. But November should surely be the month where the PS3 sees its largest spike, as the all new $399 40GB PS3 will launch.
