Hardware

Wii - 687,000

360 - 347,200
PSP - 238,100
PS3 - 232,400
PS2 - 173,500

Software

1. 360 Star Wars: the Force Unleashed - 610,000
2. Wii Wii Fit - 518,000
3. 360 Rock Band 2* - 363,000
4. Wii Mario Kart Wii - 353,000

7. Wii Wii Play - 243,000
8. 360 Madden NFL 09 - 224,000
9. Wii Star Wars: the Force Unleashed - 223,000
10. PS2 Madden NFL 09 - 158,000

*This figure represents sales of only the game disc, as the instrument bundle was not available in September.

^The numbers to the right represent units sold, and all numbers represent all incarnations of the product line (special editions, DS vs. DS Lite, etc.)

Cammie Dunaway, NoA’s VP of Sales and Marketing, stated that Wii’s continued success could be attributed to its unique control scheme, and that the four Wii games that made the top 10 were prime examples of this: "The four Wii games in the top 10 all feature controls just not possible on other video game systems." That being said, it must again be acknowledged that Wii Play comes with a Wii Remote. I am surprised yet still pleased to see that Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii are continuing to outstrip much of the competition; then again, considering how often these two games are asked for at work, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised.
