From the Japanese sales charts, for the week leading up to Christmas, the PlayStation 3 outsold the Xbox 360 again, this time 7:1. This is an obvious sign of great wisdom among the Japanese. Of course, the PS3 outsells the XBox 360 every week in Japan but we just love reporting it, over and over again!  As an interesting side note, the PSP sold an incredible 170,000 units.
Here are the official numbers:

- Nintendo DS Lite – 279,551
- Wii – 232,907
- PSP – 171,804
- PlayStation 3 – 58,167
- PlayStation 2 – 20,391
- Xbox 360 – 7,908

Note that these charts do not include Christmas Eve so all of those frenzied fathers trying to find gifts to keep little Timmy happy will not show up. Stay tuned for next week…
