Nintendo’s Wii was the only console that didn’t drop, slightly climbing from sales of 24,726 last week to reach 26,787. Last week’s figure for the Wii marked a turnaround for the console, as it had suffered successive drops for several weeks before last week's results.
Nintendo also saw its DSi handheld, once again, take the biggest fall. It dropped from 104,897 to 85,327, and this outcome may come as a relief for Nintendo, as sales results of the new handheld last week saw it nosedive from 171,925.
The arrangement of consoles this week remains largely the same. Sony’s PSP range saw another successive sales drop, from 43,726 to hitting 38,153 this week. The PS3 remains largely consistent, trimming sales from 18,354 to 17,448 this week.
Just behind the PS3 in the charts is again the Xbox 360, though this week Microsoft’s console fell rather more sharply from 12,759 to 7,983.
At the bottom of the charts the PS2 to a similar fall to its successor, with sales trimming by a largely insignificant 322 units to reach 5,421. The console did actually see another machine drop past it; the DS Lite. Sales of the previous DS model took the biggest proportional drop, falling from 8,381 last week to 3,559.
