NPD Sales Data for US, February 2007

DS 485K
Wii 335K $249.99
PS2 295K $129.80
360 228K $389.00
PSP 176K
GBA 136K
PS3 127K $598.00

Ouch. Weak PS3 sales are somewhat understandable since the PS3 had almost no new games through the entire month of January and up to the end of February. However, in February 2006, the 360 managed to sell better than this with NPD reporting 161K US unit sales. The 360 was also still under heavy supply constraints at that time unlike the PS3 was this February.

On the bright side for PS3 fans, the good content has just started to roll in. VF5, flOw, F1, and Motorstorm have recently shipped. And the next week or two will probably be the best yet in terms of content:

• Calling All Cars
• Godfather
• Oblivion
• Virtua Tennis
• Go Puzzle
• Folding@home
• 1.6 firmware update with Remote Play and Background Downloading.

I can’t wait!
