            There should be another number for how many 360s die during the month. It's probably higher than the PS3 sales for the month. LOL.

                Still amazed by those 360 Madden numers. They outsold a fanbase 6x bigger by a good margin. PS3 outsold by the PSP is also bizarre.

                If the pricedrop rumors are true, Sony might make up some ground this holiday...

                            PSP outselling the PS3 isn't bizarre at all when you consider that the PSP is a great console with many diverse uses and a much larger selection of good games than the PS3, available at a fraction of the price.

                            360 with a nice showing this month, and the Wii keeps rolling. Looks like Wii gamers are STILL attracted to the Wii Play bundle pack (controller + $10 mini-game collection) and traditional Nintendo favorites, but shy away from all other titles (Xbox Madden outsells Wii Madden??).

                            Are DS sales slowly coolling (finally)? That thing is a juggernaut, but it's inevitable that the DS sales gradually drop.

                            The NPD numbers have been fascinating for quite some time.
