PS 3 Sales Up 60%, Still Not Enough To Overtake Xbox 360

Ars Technica is reporting on an NPD Group report that the Playstation 3 had a huge jump in sales, thanks to it’s price drops no doubt, but it was still not enough to overtake Microsoft’s Xbox 360. Nothing can keep up to the Wii though, as it shows absolutely no signs of slowing down. While the Xbox sold a respectable 170,000 units during July, the Wii sold 425,000 and the DS sold 405,000. Incredible.

In July, the Wii and DS showed no signs of slowing down: they sold 425,000 and 405,000 units respectively. Pretty amazing stuff, considering many people are still having a hard time finding Wii hardware on store shelves. Even with the supply constraints, the little system with the big waggle came out on top.
