Official NPD sales numbers have been released for December 2008, listing the PlayStation Portable with over 1.02 million units sold, followed by the PlayStation 3 selling over 725k consoles.
Here are the official numbers:
– Nintendo DS 3.04 million
– Wii 2.15 million
– Xbox 360 1.44 million
– PlayStation Portable 1.02 million
– PlayStation 3 726K
– PlayStation 2 410K
Impressive figures considering the state of the economy combined with the fact Sony chose not to issue a price cut over the holiday season. However, hopefully we will see a price drop at some point later this year in light of cheaper manufacturing costs.
