Nintendo is on the top as usual but with reduced sales on all consoles compared to the last weeks' reading. PSP, PS2 and the Xbox 360 has also experienced a slight drop too. Only the PS3 has seen a slight increase roughly by some 1,600 units.

considering sony gets 1million USD retail from every 1,666 units sold, 1,600 is not a slight increase ;)

(at 600 ea, or 1mill every 2,000 at 500 ea)
