- Wii: 274K
1.08m (80%) - PS3: 269K 528K (66%)

- PSP: 230K 830K (78%)
- Xbox 360: 230K 1.03m (82%)
Even though sales dropped, demand for the Wii is still high, leading some folks to speculate about the console's shortages. Analysts from Wedbush Morgan (including Michael Pachter) and simExchange venture that supply was low because many Wiis were diverted to Japan for the launches of Wii Fit and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
As per usual, there's more sales goodness after the break.

CoD4 is overrated. Sure it's a good game, but people are going crazy, acting like it's so original and special. only original thing about it is the ending of one of the campaigns. Still, nice to know that even when Wii sales dropped 80% it's still really hard to find.

I don't think it's original, I just think it's the closest thing to perfect it's genre has ever seen.

GHIII sold more than SMG?
Its amazing to see a third party game outsell a Nintendo game even if its just for one month.
