PSP and DS still hanging around. :-)

[US8F]

Wow, ps3 sold almost two times more than 360. Talk about dedication to quality content.

[bootsielon]

Two times? Not even 50%, do the math. Still impressive that it outsold the Wii by more than 4 times and it's only half of the year so far.

[MysticStrummer]

Half of 4.1 million would only be 2.05 million, not 2.8 million. It's still quite a bit more though.

[WalterWJR]

7 billion people live on planet Earth and only a fraction play video games. What is life without fun & games?

[MysticStrummer]

Everyone's idea of fun isn't the same, and people in some places have their hands full just trying to survive.

Just be glad enough people enjoy gaming for it to be considered a valid business, otherwise you wouldn't get to do it either.

Damn...

Well let's not forget that a large portion of the earth population are poor and can't afford luxury products like gaming devices.

70+ ps3
70+ Xbox 360
100+ Wii
80+ PSP
150+ DS

I would say the past generation was pretty damn successful.

parasites
famine
death

You know the ussual poverty stricken activities

[RandomDude655]

PSP has some dang legs on it. WiiU /dead

[dark-hollow]

The 3ds is increasingly becoming one of my favourite gaming device this gen.

[browngamer41]

3DS is dominate as usual,it seems to really be firing on all cylinders right now with hardware and software selling briskly...

[dark-hollow]

Proves that with solid library of games + a good cheap price is a fool proof formula for success.

We shouldn't write off the vita and the Wii u yet. The 3ds went with the same lacklustre period.

[DEATHxTHExKIDx]

I rlly cant w8 to see the 3DS line up next year. 2013 has been a HUGE hit for 3DS with great games coming out month after month. If Nintendo keeps it up 3DS might get ahead of the DS in its lifetime.

[AdvanceWarsSgt]

Nah I'd say the 3DS will sell close to GBA numbers, which isn't a bad thing at all. The DS was just a one-of-kind system that, much like the PS2, had the type of mass appeal we probably won't ever see in a device ever again.

[Tewi-Inaba]

Everyone I know so far that owns either PC/PS3/Wii/Wii U has a 3DS and Animal Crossing with it, me included.

Big Ns Wii U may be as ded as the vita, ded-er actually... but 3DS is still strong
