Playstation 3 Overtakes Wii in Japanese Sales for March
Posted in: nintendo, playstation 3, sony, Today's Chili, wiiSony had a good March on the console side of things. The company’s Playstation3 sold better than Nintendo’s Wii in Japan, for the first time in nearly a year-and-a-half. The console’s success is being credited to game titles from Sega Sammy and Capcom like Ryu Ga Gotoku 3 and Resident Evil 5.
The PS3 overtook the Wii in a big way, moving 146,948 systems to Nintendo’s 99,335. Microsoft’s Xbox 360 came in at a distant third, with 43,172 units. Despite this strong showing, Reuters adds, the PS3 is not expected to overtake the Wii globally any time soon.
