NPD Sales Data – March 2009

Wii Love Money

Even though Nintendo took the lead again this month, the industry saw a year over year 17% drop in sales. The Xbox 360 is the only console to see year over year growth, while everyone else dropped a bit.

  • Wii – 601K
  • Nintendo DS – 563K
  • Xbox 360 – 330K
  • PlayStation 3 – 218K
  • PSP – 168K
  • PlayStation 2 – 112K

Not too shabby overall, but you can definitely see the effects of the economic recession. Hit the jump to see how software sales ended up.

I honestly expected Killzone 2 to be higher up this list. It was nice to see MLB 09 The Show make it to number 6.

  1. RESIDENT EVIL 5*(360) – 938K
  2. POKEMON PLATINUM VERSION(NDS) – 805K
  3. HALO WARS*(360) – 639K
  4. RESIDENT EVIL 5*(PS3) – 585K
  5. WII FIT W/BALANCE BOARD(WII) – 541K
  6. MLB ‘09: THE SHOW(PS3) – 305K
  7. KILLZONE 2(PS3) – 296K
  8. WII PLAY W/REMOTE(WII) – 281K
  9. MARIO KART W/WHEEL(WII) – 278K
  10. MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL 2K9(360) – 205K
