Well as I say every month, it's my favorite time of the month as it's NPD time. Time to see what software customers where buying and what hardware those games were moving.
Twitter and all the video game podcast's were all over Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption so it's no surprise to see it have the top spot. I bought the game but after 3 hours of game play I've yet to get hooked into it. I know I'm still early on in the game but I don't get it yet.
1. Red Dead Redemption Xbox 360 - 945.9K

It's one of my favorite times of the month, NPD sales are released. Just a reminder that these are NOT the Canadian numbers.
The DS Lite, DSi and DSi XL take the top spot this month. The 360 and PS3 both very respectable numbers and the PSP was almost outsold by the PS2. Seriously? why are people STILL buying that console?
1.Nintendo DS 700.8K
2.Wii 557.5K
3.Xbox 360 338.4K
4.PlayStation 3 313.9K
5.PSP 119.9K
6.PlayStation 2 118.3K
Dear Kratos, thanks for the awesome combos you all...

I can't believe my eyes the Xbox 360 outsells the Nintendo Wii? Seriously? I can't remember the last time this happened!.
* Nintendo DS - 613,200
* Xbox 360 - 422,000
* Wii - 397,900
* PlayStation 3 - 360,100

So the juggernauts keep on selling New Super Mario Bros and Modern Warfare 2. I was surprised to see BioShock 2 take the top spot. I was very happy to see Heavy Rain make the top 10.

I'm a week behind here but for good reason, I'm sick. I've been battling this awful cold for a week now. Anyways it's that time of the month where the NPD group releases video game hardware and software sales. So how do December do? I think the industry did quite well and hopefully all of you got what accessories, games and hardware you were looking for.
How many Nintendo DS's do you all own? seriously over 3 million units last month while the PSP 3000 and PSP GO! did a combined 654 thousand un...
