360 has been out longest. soz, but are these figures really representational of the popularity of these consoles?

As i said before it depends on the region, as the Wii seems most popular in most places but the 360 has overtaken it in sales for the first time in most places. Only in Japan is the 360 doing poorly but we all expected that.

The Game Ace Combat for Xbox was second in Japan last week with 77,000 copies sold which is amazing considering that the Xbox has only sold around 400,000 copies well short of the other consoles as we know.
