As if we needed yet another piece of evidence that the Nintendo Wii is beating the Sony Playstation 3 in more ways that one. It seems that Nintendo’s console outsold Sony’s by a margin of 6 to 1. That’s 270,000 – 40,000 units. Whoa. Maybe Sony should consider getting out of the console game entirely? They have yet to sell 1 million units in Japan, which is typically a hot market for Japanese-made console systems. The Xbox 360 has only pushed 330,000 units since it was launched there last fall, but given its foreigner status coupled with its relative success in the U.S., that number isn’t much for Microsoft to be worried about. Sony, on the other hand, has a lot to be worried about. Get your head out of the clouds, guys! Can we get a price drop already?
Nintendo Wii crushes Sony Playstation 3. Again.
