PlayStation 3 And Xbox 360 Now Neck And Neck

For all you console war lovers. As for me... I'd care less, but its still a neat little statistic to see how much everyone has sold over the years. (Bring on the gameplay!)

Playstation and Xbox 360 Now Neck and Neck

Quote :

Despite launching nearly a full year after Xbox 360, Sony has managed to catch up to Microsoft's console with both now sitting at 70 million units shipped worldwide, according to the latest company financials.

Sony revealed this morning the PlayStation 3 has shipped 70 million units as of November 4. Additionally, PlayStation Move sales sit at 15 million units shipped since November 11. PS3 software sales have reached 595 million units shipped.

Microsoft confirmed late last month it has also shipped 70 million Xbox 360 units to date. The Nintendo Wii sits at 97.2 million units shipped.

O snap! Nintendo has shipped 27.2 million more Wii consoles than Sony's PS3 and Microsoft's XBox 360? Wow. And the Wii-U was just released in NA today too!

It seems a little obvious why the nintendo sold more... *cough* Kids *cough* and probably popular titles like mario, metroid, monster hunter... blah blah blah... but it's good to see that Nintendo is getting back into the multi-aged group again...

*thinks of the N64*

ah.... Conker, Doom, Perfect Dark, Quake & Turok. XD

Loved Turok. Just wish they made the newer one a little better.... =/ but that's just my opinion.

Yea, that's probably true. I know Nintendo has targeted younger audiences with all their cute games. But I love those! I have been playing Nintendo since the Super Nintendo days and love Mario games. I know Nintendo consoles have probably not been for the hard-core gamer and they haven't had as much third party support as PS3 and XBox 360. They might have been behind the other consoles in terms of graphics and not supporting HD until the Wii-U, but they did come out with the motion technology 1st before Sony came out with the PS Move and Microsoft came out with Kinnect. Wii games are great for parties when you have company over. Always fun for the whole family too! So now that Wii-U has arrived, I'm so excited cuz now it has both great graphics and the fun games I enjoy!

Wii was definitely a game changer for the industry. It has brought gaming to main stream. I remember my mom telling me that video games are rotting my mind. Now when she watches my kids,I come home to her playing Just Dance 3 with my kids! LoL

Hmmm. Not being able to use multiple tablets at once is odd. You would have thought they would have made that an option. That would be alot more revenue for Nintendo.
