Xbox 360 174,000
Game Boy Advance 84,000

The DS and Wii dominated things on the hardware side this month, thanks to strong sales generated by Pokemon and Super Paper Mario. Basically, the PlayStation 3 is just getting steamrolled by the 360 and Wii. Hopefully this will bring the rumored PS3 price drop upon us much sooner.
