February Stats & Figures

February sales figures, courtesy of Gamespot and NPD:

1. DS – 485,000
2. Wii – 335,000
3. X360 – 228,000
4. PS2 – 295,000
5. PSP – 176,000
6. PS3 – 127,000

Kiddie games or not, the Wii and the DS are proving to be monsters in terms of sales. The PS2′s outselling the PS3 and the PSP. Considering a possible retail pullout, Sony really needs to do something fast.

Top 10 games for February, 2007, based on number of units sold:

1. Crackdown–Xbox 360
2. Wii Play with Wii Remote–Wii
3. Diddy Kong Racing–DS
4. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess–Wii
5. Guitar Hero 2 bundle–PlayStation 2
6. Gears of War–Xbox 360
7. MLB 2K7–Xbox 360
8. Lost Planet: Extreme Condition–Xbox 360
9. WarioWare: Smooth Moves–Wii
10. NBA Street: Homecourt–Xbox 360

Part of Crackdown’s appeal is a Halo 3 beta invite, so that may have skewed the numbers a bit.
