(N-America) Official Feb 07 Numbers: 228k 360s - total 5.1m
>> From gamasutra.com: [QUOTE] The NPD U.S. game hardware and software totals for February 2007 are in, and console software sales are $441 million, up 28% compared to last year's $345 million. Game hardware sales, meanwhile, were up an impressive 98% to $402 million, thanks to stellar performances from Nintendo's DS and Wii hardware.
Dealing with software first, the top-selling title for the month was the Microsoft-published Crackdown for Xbox 360, which shifted an impressive 427,000 units, no doubt helped by a bundled Halo 3 beta opportunity.
Turning to hardware, the DS headed overall hardware sell-through with an impressive 485,000 units, followed by Nintendo's Wii, which sold 335,000 units despite continued issues with shortages. The Xbox 360 sold through a reasonable, if not spectacular 228,000 copies, and the PlayStation 3 slumped to a disappointing 127,000 units, despite no apparent shortages. Elsewhere, the PlayStation 2 moved a still impressive 295,000 at its relatively cheap current price.
In addition, the Wedbush Morgan report revealed that, through February 2007, U.S. cumulative hardware sales for Xbox 360 were 5.1 million units, Wii 1.9 million units, and PS3 1.1 million units. [/QUOTE]
