Citing Enterbrain data figures, Reuters is reporting that the Nintendo Wii outsold the PlayStation 3 in Japan by over 4 to 1 in the six month period ending September 2007.
From April to September, Nintendo sold 1.6 million consoles in Japan while Sony sold 385,492 of their next gen consoles. Also noted in the report was the fact that the Microsoft Xbox 360 continues to struggle and sold only 122,565 consoles during the same period.
The demand for the Wii is so high still that yesterday, spokesperson Reggie Fils-Aime admitted that the company would not be able to meet holiday season demand this year.
