Data from Media Create shows that the new handheld, while taking a considerable drop in sales after its frenzied launch, sold 60,467 units; around 5,000 units short of sales for the Wii, DS, 360, PS2 and PS3 combined. Conversely, Sony’s PS3 suffers its worst sales week yet, dropping 17% in sales from last week by selling a mere 3,931 units.
The PS2 itself, Sony’s cheapest console on the market, sold nearly double that of its successor.
